Common questions about building work in Great Shelford

Which council handles planning in Great Shelford?
Great Shelford sits within South Cambridgeshire, so planning applications go to the district council. Building Regulations approval is separate and runs through 3C Building Control.

Are you actually based in the village?
Yes. Our yard is at Hillstead Farm on Hinton Way. It is an operational unit rather than somewhere to visit, but it does mean we reach village jobs quickly and can supervise the work properly day to day.

What sort of work do you do locally?
Extensions, refurbishment, structural alterations and brickwork make up most of it, alongside loft conversions, repointing, new builds and property maintenance and repairs.

Can I see work you have completed nearby?
Yes. Our Histon extension and refurbishment and a large Cambridge home extension are both documented in the case studies, with photographs of the finished work.

Great Shelford is where our yard is, and the work here covers house extensions, loft conversions, refurbishment and structural alterations, plus specialist brickwork, repointing, new builds and property maintenance. The village sits at the centre of our Cambridgeshire service area, and we cover Trumpington and the southern edge of Cambridge from the same yard, two miles up the road. You can read our customer reviews before making contact.

We have built in the village too. Our extension and refurbishment on Hinton Way is photographed stage by stage — strip-out and propping, demolition, foundations, the beam-and-block ground floor and the new drainage.
