Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we get asked most before work begins.

Yes. We can advise on what approvals are needed for your project and coordinate applications on your behalf. We make sure everything is properly signed off before work starts so there are no issues down the line.

Yes. We carry full public liability insurance and all relevant accreditations. Copies are available on request before any work begins.

It depends on the scope of work. A single-storey extension typically takes 8–12 weeks, while a full new build or larger refurbishment can run to several months. We provide a clear programme before we start so you know exactly what to expect.

In most cases, yes. We plan the work carefully to minimise disruption and keep the site tidy throughout. For larger structural projects we'll be upfront if any phase of the work makes this impractical.

Always. Every quote is itemised in writing so you know exactly what's included and what it costs. We don't do vague estimates or surprise additional charges.

We're based in Herne Bay and work across Kent — including Canterbury, Whitstable, Faversham, Ashford, Margate, Ramsgate, and Dover. We also take on projects in London and the surrounding areas.
