Brian Franklin is a small, second-generation family business now in its 24th year. Our aim is to provide every client with a first-class, personal service for their conservation building project.
We provide careful, ongoing repair and maintenance for historic buildings, addressing issues before they become serious. From lime work to roofing and structural repairs, our approach is practical, sensitive, and focused on preserving the building’s fabric and long-term performance.
Our building work combines traditional skills with thoughtful construction, delivering projects that sit comfortably within their historic setting. Whether new work or extension, we use appropriate materials and methods to ensure a cohesive, well-crafted and enduring result.
We offer clear, practical advice to support the care and conservation of older buildings. From initial assessments to detailed guidance, we help clients make informed decisions, balancing technical requirements, conservation principles, and the long-term wellbeing of the building.
We work across Wiltshire and neighbouring counties on historic buildings and structures. As a small business, when you work with us, you get us directly; as consultants, project managers, and craftsmen. Our expertise is underpinned by diplomas in Building Conservation, completed in collaboration with English Heritage, and strengthened by many years of hands-on site experience.
