Heritage advice across Kent.

Timber-framed hall houses, Kentish ragstone, peg tile and weatherboard — and some of the most heritage-active planning authorities in the country.

We advise owners, architects and contractors throughout Kent — from first thoughts about a project, through pre-application discussions with the conservation officer, to the specification of repairs on site. Work is carried out remotely and on site, with a free 30-minute video consultation to begin.

Early engagement is where money is saved. A refusal, a redesign or a remedial contract after the wrong materials have gone in typically costs far more than getting the advice in place before the first drawing is issued.
