Frequently Asked Questions
What areas do you cover?
We’re based in Whitstable and cover the whole of Kent. This includes Canterbury, Faversham, Herne Bay, Margate, and all surrounding areas. We can also arrange work further afield for larger projects, just tell us your preferred location and we’ll see what we can do for you!
Do you handle planning permission and building control?
Yes. We manage the entire process from beginning to end, starting with architect’s drawings, through to planning applications and Building Control sign-off. We’ll take the hassle out of the paperwork so you can get on with enjoying your new space.
Is Building Control required for my project?
For major projects such as extensions and conversions, Building Control is generally required. This ensures that your work meets the required standards and regulations set out by the local Building Control team. We’ll take care of all legal documents and certification for you.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. We carry full public liability insurance and employer’s liability insurance on every project that we’re involved in. Copies of certificates are available on request, and all our work is guaranteed.

The process for our quotes is very simple. We visit your property, discuss your requirements in detail, and then provide a detailed written quote. The price that we quote is the price you pay, with no hidden extras or surprise fees. We pride ourselves on our competitive and transparent pricing. Contact us today for a FREE no-obligation quote!
What type of construction do you specialise in?
We specialise in a wide range of construction types, including extensions and conversions, renovations and refurbishments, brickwork, groundworks, roofing, and landscaping. Find out more about our services here!
Do you do small jobs as well as big projects?
Yes! No job is too big or too small, so while we regularly take on extensions, loft conversions, and full refurbishments, we’ll also fix a leaky tap or carry out some re-pointing. We approach every job with the same attention to detail and care.
What sort of disruption will I face during the construction?
We always aim to treat your home as if it were our own. That’s why we pride ourselves on keeping disruption and mess to a minimum, working in a safe and efficient manner in order to do so.
Will a construction project add value to my home?
In many cases, yes. In fact, house extensions in particular can add up to 20% to the overall value of your property, as they are seen as a key selling point for prospective buyers.
Are you on Checkatrade?
Yes, we’re proud to be Checkatrade members with a long list of verified reviews from real customers. Our reputation means a lot to us, and we encourage everyone to check out our reviews and ratings on the Checkatrade website.
How long will my project take?
The timescale of your project will depend on its complexity and scale. During the quote stage, after we’ve discussed your project with you, we’ll be able to apply a realistic timeframe. We aim to stick firmly to our timeframes and will of course keep you updated throughout the project.
How much will my project cost?
The cost of your project will vary depending on the scale and complexity of the job. To find out more, contact us for a FREE, no-obligation quote. What we quote is what you pay, with no hidden charges or unexpected fees further down the line.
