We build extensions for older and listed properties, ensuring that new work enhances the original building rather than overwhelming it. Extending an old property requires a sensitive approach, with careful attention to materials, detailing, and proportions so that the new addition sits comfortably alongside the existing structure.
Our experience with traditional building methods and materials allows us to create extensions that feel like a natural part of the property. Whether constructed in brick, flint, stone, cob, or timber, we source materials, often reclaimed, to match and use traditional mortars, renders, and finishes. The result is an extension that blends seamlessly with the character of the original building while providing the space and functionality you need.
Extensions can take many forms, from small kitchen or utility additions to larger multi-room builds. We have experience working on both modest domestic projects and larger-scale schemes, always guided by the same principle of sympathetic design and construction. For listed properties, we also work closely within conservation guidelines, ensuring that any extension meets planning requirements while protecting the building’s historic integrity.
Attention to detail is central to our approach. From matching mortar colour and texture to replicating stone or brick detailing, we ensure that every extension is completed to the highest standard. We also take care with roofing, joinery, and finishes so that the new space looks and feels like it belongs to the original house.
