Homes in Powys

Across Wales you find valley terraces, coastal towns, rural stone houses and newer estates, so access, slopes and local materials all feature in the design.

What do you get with a house renovation?

We survey the house to find what really needs doing, from damp and roof condition to wiring age, then programme the work so the messy trades (structure, first-fix, plaster) happen before the finishing trades. A single contract avoids the gaps that appear when separate trades are booked independently.

Planning and building rules in Welshpool

Planning decisions in Wales are made by the local council, using permitted development rules set by the Welsh Government rather than England’s. Building regulations in Wales have their own approved documents, and the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 applies to work on shared walls and boundaries.

Internal work like this does not usually need planning permission in Wales unless the building is listed.

What should I think about before starting?

Older houses can hide timber decay and damp, so we allow a contingency.
Living in during a full renovation is difficult; most people move out for part of it.
