Construction

Built from the roof down

WW is a roofing-led building business. Where a project goes beyond the roofline we carry the construction work too: extensions, new-build roofing and oak-framed garden buildings, one team from structure to finished roof.

Extensions

House extensions

An extension lives or dies at the junction with the existing house: the structure, the tie-in, and above all the roof and its weathering details. That junction is exactly where a roofing-led builder earns its keep.

About our extension work

New treated timber joists spanning an extension in low sunlight, bedded on red brick walls with a concrete lintel

New builds

New-build roofing

On new-build sites we work as the roofing package: membrane, battens, coverings and leadwork to specification and to programme, coordinated with the trades before and after us.

Garden buildings

Oak-framed garden buildings

Outdoor kitchens, car ports and garden rooms in green oak, roofed properly in slate or tile rather than felt. Small buildings, built like real ones.
