House extensions in Bath, Trowbridge and across BANES — from a side-return on a terraced street to a double-storey rear build. We handle planning drawings, structural steel, groundworks and Building Control in one fixed-price contract, so the number you sign is the number you pay. Single-storey builds typically run 10–14 weeks; double-storey 16–24 weeks — both confirmed at quote, not discovered mid-build.
Bradford on Avon possesses one of the finest concentrations of period properties in the region — from the iconic Tythe Barn to weavers' cottages and Georgian townhouses lining the steep streets down to the river. Our team brings the same exacting standard to every project here: traditional lime mortars hand-mixed to match the original substrate, period joinery fabricated or restored to original profiles, and structural interventions that preserve the building's integrity without compromising its character. Steep street access, riverside flood considerations and conservation area planning constraints are managed comprehensively within every project.
