Lavenham is one of England's finest medieval wool towns, and any exterior cladding work here demands a level of care and planning awareness that not every contractor brings.
The majority of Lavenham's iconic timber-framed buildings in the conservation area are not suitable for conventional external overcladding, and we will always say so honestly rather than take on inappropriate work. However, the village also has a number of 20th-century brick bungalows and semis on the outskirts — on roads toward Preston St Mary and Brent Eleigh — where exterior cladding is entirely appropriate and makes a real difference to comfort and running costs.
We liaise with Babergh District Council's conservation team where required and ensure all fixings and boards are sympathetic to the local character. Ask us for a free cladding survey and we'll give you a clear picture of what's feasible on your specific property.
