Why homeowners choose us
We combine design and construction experience, so the early layout discussion considers how a home could be altered as well as how it could look. Detailed scope, pricing and programme are agreed separately for each project.

He is polite, friendly and professional in every aspect. I would definitely be using his services again in the future when needed.”

Questions
How much does it cost to knock through for an open-plan kitchen in Blandford?
Start with a free project review about your Blandford property. If it makes sense to go ahead, the next step is the Layout Ideas Pack, done remotely or in person. If the wall is load-bearing, structural engineering calculations are quoted after the survey.
How do I know if a wall in my Blandford home is load-bearing?
The Layout Ideas Pack's on-site survey identifies which walls are load-bearing. A 3D scan and structural engineering calculations can then size any required steel beam.
Do I need planning permission for internal wall removal in Blandford?
Most internal wall removals in Blandford fall under Permitted Development and don't need planning permission. If the wall is load-bearing, you will need Building Regulations approval. We tell you which applies as part of the survey.
What do I get with the Layout Ideas Pack?
Done remotely from your Rightmove link, floor plan or sketch. Done in person: we visit and carry out a measured site survey with a 3D point cloud scan of your home. We travel for this. Either way, you get at least two layout options showing which walls move, where the kitchen flows into the living space, and how the new layout works.
