What we do

A contractor for buildings that matter

01

Residential new build

Ground-up family homes built to a high specification — from groundworks and structure through to a finished, handed-over house.

02

Heritage & listed buildings

Sympathetic restoration and extension of period and listed properties, using lime mortar, limecrete and traditional detailing done properly.

03

Listed Building Consent

Coordination of the consent process alongside the works — surveys, drawings and heritage statements handled so the project runs cleanly.

04

Surveys & condition reports

Drone-assisted building surveys and condition reports, delivered with our RICS chartered surveying partners and structural engineers.

The difference

We speak the language of old buildings

Heritage work isn't ordinary building done carefully — it's a different discipline. Lime mortars that let walls breathe, limecrete floors, breathable finishes, and the patience to work within Listed Building Consent rather than around it. It's also what makes the consent process smoother: we coordinate the surveys, drawings and heritage statements so conservation officers see a project that respects the building.

How we work

Considered, from first survey to handover

01 — Understand

We start with the building and the brief: survey the fabric, understand the constraints, and set out a realistic programme and cost.

02 — Specify

Drawings, specifications and — where needed — consent coordination, so everyone is building from the same clear information.

03 — Build

Tight site management, the right trades, and the traditional methods a heritage or high-spec build deserves.
