What we do
Nine trades, one accountable team
Most jobs need more than one skill. Damp needs treating before the wall is plastered; a concrete repair needs a clean surface first. We cover each stage ourselves so nothing falls between contractors.
Lime plastering
Breathable lime finishes for solid stone and older buildings, keeping the soft, hand-worked look these walls deserve.
Rendering
Through-coloured and traditional renders for new builds, gables and timber-framed infill panels.
Damp proofing
Finding the cause, treating it, then replastering with salt-resistant renovating systems so the problem stays fixed.
General construction
Extensions, conversions, stonework, roofing details and fit-out, managed from strip-out to handover.
Maintenance
Planned and reactive repairs for homeowners, landlords and commercial sites, done tidily and on time.
Asbestos removal
Safe removal and disposal of asbestos-containing materials, with the paperwork you need for your records.
Drone cleaning
Roofs, render, cladding and high elevations cleaned using drone cleaning equipment, reaching difficult areas without scaffolding.
Pressure washing & concrete repair
Deep cleaning of stone, paving and decks, plus breaking out spalled concrete, treating rebar and reinstating.

BeforeAfter
Heritage & damp
Old stone walls need the right materials
This cottage room was taken back to bare rubble stone. Defective plaster came off, the walls were dubbed out, and a renovating plaster system went on to handle damp and salts. The finished wall keeps the gentle curves of the original building.
- Strip out of failed plaster and investigation of the damp source
- Breathable and renovating plasters matched to the wall type
- Reveals, sills and openings formed by hand
- Experienced on any listed building
Concrete repair
Car park decks, soffits and slabs
Concrete fails when the steel inside it corrodes. We mark out the damage, break back to sound concrete, treat the reinforcement and reinstate with repair mortars, then finish the surface so the structure goes back into service.
