Renovation of period cottages and modern homes alike, from one room to the whole house.
New homes
Individual houses and small developments in and around Wokingham and Bracknell, built from the ground up.
A local builder for Wokingham and Bracknell.
Wokingham and Bracknell are at the northern end of the area we cover. You speak to the family who run the business, and our own team is on site with trusted local specialists for every trade.
We build across Wokingham, Bracknell, Crowthorne, Finchampstead, Binfield, Sandhurst, Owlsmoor and Arborfield. Nearby, see our pages for builders in Farnborough & Fleet and Farnham, all the areas we cover, or our guide to choosing a builder.
Building in Wokingham & Bracknell
Wokingham Borough Council handles planning for Wokingham, Crowthorne, Finchampstead and Arborfield, and Bracknell Forest Council for Bracknell, Binfield, Sandhurst and Owlsmoor.
The heaths around Crowthorne and Sandhurst are part of the Thames Basin Heaths, a protected area, so every new home nearby has to fund mitigation. Extensions aren’t affected. With so many newer estates and post-war homes across both towns, two-storey side and rear extensions are among the most common projects here.
Recent work: new homes in Wokingham, including a bungalow replaced with a new-build development, and new-build homes, flats and extensions across Farnborough. See the photos or read about our aftercare and guarantees.
