Real Faversham project notes
Listed-building refurbishment on a Tudor merchant house on Abbey Street with lime plastering and oak repairs. We document each Faversham project as it runs so the gallery isn't a stock photo dump — every image is a real local job.
In short
The right loft conversion idea for a Faversham property is the one that respects Kent peg-tile cottages — peg tiles, timber framing, conservation rules — rather than fighting it.
Faversham design FAQs
Will modern loft conversion designs work on a period Faversham property?
Yes — the trick is contrast handled deliberately. Modern joinery and glazing can sit beautifully against original brick, timber and lime plaster as long as the junction details are designed, not improvised.
Can you show Faversham examples before I commit?
Yes — we'll bring a portfolio of recent Faversham and ME13-area projects to the site visit. Where you want to see one in person we can usually arrange a walk-round with a previous client.
Do you do the design or do I need an architect first?
We do both. For straight refurbishments we design in-house. For planning-led projects we work with two architects we trust on the Faversham / ME13 area. Either way you get one accountable team.
