Our carpenters have worked alongside conservation officers on numerous old timber buildings including churches, barns, mills, and houses. We carry out detailed surveys, providing a repair schedule and budget costs for the architect or client.

We have surveyed, numbered and dismantled entire buildings, carried out repairs in our workshop and reassembled them back on site. We have lifted, straightened and repaired many buildings near collapse.

 

The initial examination of each restoration project is of vital importance. From this we ascertain the exact timber sizes and jointing details from the outset. Also from this information we can gauge the history and development of each building, for example the amount of bays it would have had in its original form.

We have a highly skilled work force who can restore your home or barn to its former glory and who can replicate or duplicate (if also to be extended) the exact joints and timber sizes used in the original style and period.
