Questions about Aldeburgh
Do you work in Aldeburgh?
Yes. Aldeburgh, Thorpeness, Snape and Friston are all within our normal area.
My house is in the conservation area. Can I extend it?
Usually, with planning permission and a design that respects the street. Listed houses also need listed building consent.
Can you deal with salt and weather on a seafront house?
Yes. Render, pointing, joinery and roof fixings are specified for exposure, and we tell you what will last.
Can you manage a project while we are away?
Yes. Many of our clients are not on site day to day. We send photographs as the work goes up and keep to an agreed programme.
