We handle all aspects of the build, including planning applications, structural calculations, groundworks, brickwork, roofing, windows and internal fit-out. Our clients in Lyme Regis and across Dorset consistently tell us that our communication sets us apart — you will always know exactly what is happening on site, and our fixed-price quotes mean no nasty surprises when the project is complete.

House extensions in Dorset need to complement the existing property and satisfy local planning guidelines.
