  • Apprentice company

Building conservation department

Mended the way they were built.

The Directorate for Cultural Heritage now requires craftsmen working on listed buildings to have training in practical building conservation, or to document the same skills. Two of ours have made it their speciality.

Carpentry

Everything a carpenter does.

Building a house, restoring one, adding on, refurbishing or a new terrace: we do all of it, and we can take the whole job as main contractor.

  • New builds
  • Extensions
  • Extra storeys
  • Refurbishment
  • Terraces

Our own planer

Boards to match.

On our Wood-Mizer planer and profile cutter we make almost any moulding, floorboard or panel, with or without a profile. For a special project it can all be planed by hand.

Blown insulation

Warmer, not rebuilt.

Retrofit insulation with our X-Floc blowing machine, where it makes sense and is within reach. We also help with advice on your home and with applications for grants.

About us

Looked after, listened to, and a job well done.

That is the whole business idea: everyone who has us build, restore or extend their house should be left feeling it was done excellently, by skilled and serious craftsmen.

The three of us who run the firm each have more than 25 years in the trade, and at least 20 of them here.
