Company Profile

SERVICES
Over the course of more than a decade Cocoon has been involved in a large number of full-house refurbishments, kitchen extensions, loft conversions and general property maintenance. As a result, we can offer a wealth of experience and a wide range of skills. Here are just a few of the services we provide. Please get in touch here to discuss your needs.

CONDENSATION AND MOULD GROWTH SOLUTIONS
Cocoon is well experienced in tackling damp issues in all kinds of property but particularly in homes where double glazing and draught proofing have meant some are more prone to condensation and mould than ever before. We have exclusive rights to install cocoon air which is a revolutionary system that provides fresh, warmed air to the house or flat it’s installed in and at the same time extracts damp air but with very little heat loss usually associated with extractors and at a fraction of the cost of running a dehumidifier . Please email or telephone us to arrange a free, comprehensive survey and we’ll quickly help with your condensation and mould issues.

KITCHEN EXTENSIONS
Cocoon’s experienced team can make a dramatic difference to your quality of life by increasing the size of the most important room in your house. Filling out the side return or extending into your garden can also add tremendous value to your home, and prices are surprisingly affordable. To make a real impact, we can also install highly-engineered folding doors, designed to your precise requirements, that will open the house out onto the garden.

INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL DECORATION
We offer vast experience with all types of decoration, and pride ourselves on our meticulous preparation and high quality finish. And as some members of the team are licensed for working at height on ‘cherry pickers’ no decoration job is too difficult or inaccessible.

LOFT CONVERSIONS
Having completed many conversions over the years, Cocoon’s experienced team will undertake all construction associated with the conversion of your loft – from flooring and lighting to insulation and installing structural steel beams – ensuring you of a stress-free job. Why spend thousands on moving when for a fraction of the cost you can utilise space you already own and subsequently add real space – and value – to your home. Please click here, fill out the form and we’d be delighted to arrange a visit to discuss your ideas.

BUILT IN CUPBOARDS
Providing yet another opportunity to maximise the space in your home, Cocoon has a team of skilled carpenters who can transform seemingly impractical alcoves into stylish, useful cupboards and shelving.


PROPERTY MAINTENANCE
We act for residents’ associations covering over 200,000 properties in the South East and have performed all aspects of maintenance to people’s homes. We can act quickly and can be relied on to solve most property-related issues.

FULL HOUSE REFURBISHMENT
Cocoon has been involved with many full-house refurbishments. Particularly specialising in Victorian property we have a wealth of experience in retaining classic period features and combining them with contemporary practical living.

There are numerous things we can do, such as renovating fireplaces, re-installing plaster cornices and refurbishing sash windows, to ensure that a house built more than a hundred years ago is just as warm and comfortable as a modern home and as beautiful as the day it was built.

GARDEN LANDSCAPING AND DECKING
Once you’ve completed works to the inside of your home why not make a start on the garden? Cocoon Property can transform any outside space into a more beautiful and practical area. Please see the gallery for images of our work, which ranges from complete landscaping to incorporating box planters into decking.

ROOF REPAIRS
We are all too aware that water ingress in your home can be very stressful and is often difficult to diagnose. With years of experience in this field Cocoon can offer genuine solutions to leaking roofs, corroded soakers, blown render and crumbling fire walls.

Sash window repairs, subsequent decoration and new chrome window fittings

From the first quote to the completion of the work, the whole team were very professional. There were no hidden costs and the final invoice reflected what we had been quoted for. The team were very polite and didn't even seem to take tea breaks! Our windows were in a sorry state of repair and we weren't sure if the rotted wood was beyond fixing. But the windows and the front of the house have been transformed, unbelievable actually! Very talented carpenter and decorator.
