Bath's listed stock deserves more than cement repointing and wrong-slime renders. We restore Georgian and Victorian properties with the materials the buildings were built from — Bath stone from traditional sources, NHL lime mortars, sympathetic sash repairs — and we handle the conservation officer, the listed-building consent and the heritage paperwork as part of the contract. Stone conservation in Bath is the heart of what we do.

Chippenham's mix of post-war estates, 1970s developments and newer build communities — spreading out from the historic centre around Yelde Hall and Monkton Park on the River Avon — presents a broad range of structural opportunities. Our work here centres on whole-home modernisations: opening up compartmentalised layouts, installing structural steel for open-plan living, and delivering contemporary extensions that transform how families use their homes. Estate-access logistics, permitted development rights on newer properties and drainage and soil conditions across the town's varied terrain are all standard considerations, and every project receives the same rigorous project management regardless of scale.

Problems we fix

When Chippenham homeowners call us about heritage project

If any of these sound like your property, this is the service you want.

  • Cement mortar on a listed wall — traps moisture and spalls the stone; lime only

  • Sandblasting Bath stone — destroys the weathered surface permanently

  • Wrong stone matched badly — we source matched Bath stone from traditional quarries

  • No listed-building consent — we prepare and manage the applications

  • Generic renders on Georgian façades — breathable lime renders and limewash

  • Conservation officers treated as enemies — we brief them early and properly
