Covering Dover
We work in Dover (CT16) and the places around it, including Folkestone, Deal and Canterbury.
Homes in the South East
The South East has a lot of 1930s and post-war semi-detached housing, well suited to rear extensions and hip-to-gable loft conversions, alongside period properties in conservation areas that need a more careful design.
