Home / Areas we cover / Northumberland
From Ponteland and Darras Hall to Cramlington, Morpeth and Hexham. Extensions, renovations and every trade a house needs, from one accountable firm.

Northumberland is a big county, and good builders who can cover every trade are hard to find outside the towns. We bring the same in-house team we use across Tyneside and County Durham: builders, roofers, joiners, Gas Safe engineers, electricians, plasterers and decorators.
Our focus is south and central Northumberland, where we can plan work properly and get back quickly if something needs attention. For larger projects further north, ring and we will tell you honestly whether we can do it well.
The village and surrounding communities, from boilers to full extensions.
Larger extensions and whole-house renovations, with Estate Committee approval handled.
Family homes on the newer estates, plus coastal properties in Blyth.
Terraces, semis and older stone properties in the market towns.
Tyne Valley homes, including stone-built and period properties.
Coastal and rural properties further north. Ring us to discuss.
Planning and building control across the county are handled by Northumberland County Council, with neighbourhood plans in many parishes, including Ponteland and Morpeth, adding local policies. Large parts of the south-west of the county are Green Belt, and the market towns have conservation areas with tighter rules on windows, roofs and extensions.
Stone-built and rural properties bring their own questions: solid walls that need to breathe, private drainage, oil or LPG heating and long cable runs to outbuildings. We check all of these at the survey.

We review what you've sent and decide the best next step, whether that's pricing straight away or sorting drawings, planning or building control first.
Where it's needed, we come and look properly: access, structure, levels and anything affecting the cost. Your chance to ask questions before we quote.
A clear, transparent quote setting out what's included, assumed and excluded, with a payment structure. Confidence in what you're accepting, not a one-line price.
Once you're happy, we sort dates, materials, access and building control before anyone lifts a tool, so the job runs smoothly on site.
Our team arrives clear on the agreed scope, keeps the site tidy, communicates as we go and respects your home throughout.
