Heritage Building Restoration and Conservation Specialists
Projects
Heritage Case Studies
Our past projects demonstrate the craftsmanship and care that exemplify the work we do. Whether through minor fabric repairs or quality workmanship in fine detailing, we take great pride in providing our clients with the highest quality workmanship while still respecting the original materials used in construction as well as the overall character of the building. These projects also illustrate how the combination of skilled craftsmanship, traditional building techniques, and hands-on experience can protect the integrity of the historical fabric along with preparing buildings for future use.
Historic Barn Repointing and Repair, Cannock
Working alongside a local developer we were asked to inspect and report on the existing heavily weathered brickwork. Bricks were replaced and repaired where necessary. Before commencing with any work we first carefully removed all existing mortar by hand before the work was completed using a matched colour lime based mortar mix.
Wild Rose House, Slate Roof and Lead Work Repair
In order to protect the integrity of the building, the whole roof was manually removed. Each step of removing the roof was performed carefully and methodically so minimal damage occurred. Once roofing removal took place, inspection of the substructure occurred thoroughly to identify any damaged areas. Any areas of damage or weakness were then repaired or replaced as required. Assessment of the damaged areas was followed by cleaning and sorting of existing tiles for reuse. Replacement tiles were sourced from a heritage specialist/reclaimer to ensure a seamless fit of the new tile and retain the existing character and appearance of the building.
Repair and Refurbishment of Victorian Stained Glass Windows at Meadow View, Shropshire
The historic windows were carefully removed during building work, the frames were inspected and repaired authentically where required before being refitted with care. No glass was broken, no original fabric was lost.
Timber Structure Repairs At Victoria Barns, W'ton
We repaired and stabilised the historic timber frame of the barn, retaining original fabric and resolving decay, movement and failed joints using traditional carpentry repairs and discreet strengthening. The massive roof trusses were realigned and reinforced where necessary while preserving their visual character.
Project Structural Repair, Featherstone
We lifted the deteriorated barn floor and carefully excavated the underlying soil to create a stable, level base while improving drainage and ground conditions. A new structural slab was introduced to provide long-term stability and usability, finished to sit comfortably within the character of the historic interior. The renewed floor delivers a durable, level surface suited to modern use while remaining visually sympathetic to the building’s agricultural origins.
