New Building

A new home offers the owner the opportunity of starting with a blank canvas and participating in the design of their dream home. We have close working relationships with architects, engineers and other building professionals and can give reliable estimates for budget purposes as well as practical advice on construction methods and suitability of sites. We also have a range of designs for timber framed homes of a very traditional appearance which can easily be modified to suit individual requirements.

Renovations

Many people are put off buying an older property because they feel that they may be getting into an open cheque book situation with their builder. We have a great deal of experience of renovating, repairing and improving older buildings and because of this we are able to give reliable fixed price quotes for this type of work. Properly dealt with older properties can retain their character and provide well insulated comfortable and charming homes.

The pictures below show four views of a cottage on Easdale Island during the course of a restoration project.

Extensions

Sometimes life compresses your dwelling and you simply run out of the space you need to feel completely comfortable in your home. You might be wanting for a purpose built office space, a sun lounge to breakfast in a relaxed manner in the morning light, or simply for extra storage or a workroom. In many cases building an extension to your existing home is the most practical and cost effective solution to enlarging your living area without contemplating the trauma of selling up and moving to a larger home. We can advise and guide you with the extension options you have with your home, help ensure the finished work looks like an original part of the building, and give you a fixed price quotation for the solution that solves all your space dilemas.

Roofing

Being based on the Atlantic seaboard in the West of Scotland, we are no strangers to the problems that can face roofs in an inclement climate. Wind, rain, snow, ice, and even sunshine, can all take a toll on your roof. The durability of any roof is a matter of design, materials, and standards of construction, and our experience allows us to expertly assess and execute any roofing repairs or re-roofing requirements you may have.

In addition we can offer the skills to mend or replace your gutterwork, or to introduce extra daylight in your home through the installation of skylights, velux windows, or dormers.

Your roof is also a crucial component in insulating your home from both the cold of winter and the warmth of summer. A good roof helps a great deal in maintaining a comfortable temperature and good air quality within. We can assess and quote for insulation, ventilation, and even solar energy solutions for the roof over your head.
