Where We Work Across Dorset
We provide our full range of residential and commercial building services across the county:
Sherborne
Sherborne is right on our doorstep and is home to some of our most prestigious residential projects. We are experts in working with the town’s iconic golden stone and heritage architecture. Whether it’s a high-end townhouse renovation or a sympathetic extension in a conservation area, we ensure a finish that respects Sherborne’s architecture.
Dorchester
As the county town, Dorchester is a major hub for our commercial and public sector work. We handle everything from structural refurbishments in the town centre to industrial groundworks on the outskirts. We’re used to the logistical demands of working in a busy administrative hub, ensuring sites are kept safe and on schedule.
Bridport & West Bay
Working on the coast requires an understanding of the elements. We deliver bespoke home renovations and commercial unit upgrades across Bridport, focusing on high-performance materials that stand up to the coastal environment. We handle the heavy structural work for both modern and traditional properties across both residential and commercial projects.
