Our clients have capitalised from shifts in policy and legislation, allowing us to advise and deploy services quickly.
From conception to completion, we are happy to assist our clients either in rural or urban areas.

We advise clients on the reuse of redundant and underused buildings while considering the various planning policies. The conversions we have undertaken vary from small redundant outbuildings to Grade II listed tithe barns. We seek to balance retention of the existing structure as far as possible and minimise the impact on the surrounding area whilst also converting to provide modern living requirements.
We convert buildings for a variety of uses ranging from light industrial and modern office space to low key tourism and residential units.

We offer a range of services for improving existing properties through alteration and modernisation. We take care to spend time with clients to fully understand their brief and transpose this into the proposal. We carry out such modernisation, alteration and extension in accordance with the client's brief, which can vary from meshing comfortably with the existing vernacular through to more contemporary additions to existing buildings.
