Here is a list of services we can provide.  Feel free to approach us about anything though, we can turn our hands to most things as long as you want to do it sustainably!

 

Building:

Housing
We can help with all aspects of your build, or just the bits you’d like. All work can be planned and managed by us to meet planning and building regulations.

Garden outbuildings – sheds, offices, extra rooms
Would you like to make better use of the space you have in your garden? We can build you highly insulated and breathable garden buildings. All work can be planned and managed by us to meet planning and building regulations.

House extensions and conversions
A straw bale extension to your existing house is a highly feasible option and you can achieve much, much higher insulation for your money. It may also be possible to ‘bale wrap’ your existing building, to add insulation.

Barns, Factories, Warehouses
Depending on size, these can be built using big bales or standard bales.

Cob ovens
Ideal for the garden! They need a hat or cover of some sort in our climate though. If you fancy building one yourself, this is the reference work – Build Your Own Earth Oven: A Low-cost Wood-fired Mud Oven; Simple Sourdough Bread; Perfect Loaves
