Why BUILT in Abergavenny

## A contractor with the capacity to deliver
We build to Welsh Building Regulations, which differ in places from England&#x27;s, and our design and build package handles planning, including on sensitive and national park sites.

On many projects in Abergavenny, the biggest risk isn&#x27;t the building itself but the gaps between trades. When groundworkers, bricklayers, roofers, carpenters and fitters are booked separately, each delay pushes the next trade back, and responsibility for problems becomes unclear. BUILT keeps those trades in-house: our 25 tradespeople cover structure, roofing, carpentry, kitchens and bathrooms, supported by 4 office staff who plan the programme. That means one point of contact for your Abergavenny project, one company accountable for the result, and fortnightly invoices tied to work actually completed rather than an upfront deposit.

- 25 years of trade experience, three generations of builders
- 25 tradespeople on the tools and 4 office staff
- CHAS accredited, £10M public and employers&#x27; liability insurance
- No upfront deposit: invoiced fortnightly for completed work
- 10-year warranty on new build houses, 1 year on other work
- Free site survey on properties you already own

Local building challenges

## What to plan for when building in Abergavenny

### Property types
Stone houses and barns need breathable materials and structural care, especially where walls lack proper foundations.

### Climate and flooding
Abergavenny&#x27;s hillside setting brings high rainfall and exposure to wind. Weathertight roofing and good drainage are essential, and sites near the River Usk can be at risk of flooding.

### Infrastructure and access
Steep sites and narrow lanes on the surrounding hills restrict access for deliveries and plant. Rural properties often have private drainage.

### Building age
Many properties are over a century old, and some are listed or within conservation areas. National park planning policy can also affect what&#x27;s permitted.

Planning in Abergavenny

## Planning and regulations
Planning in Abergavenny is handled by Monmouthshire County Council, while land within Bannau Brycheiniog National Park falls under the national park authority, which applies stricter design and landscape policies. Welsh Building Regulations apply.

Typical projects

## Projects we take on in Abergavenny
Typical Abergavenny projects include extensions to Victorian houses in the town, converting stone barns on the hillsides around Llanfoist and Govilon, and new builds on rural plots.

### Local materials and character
Abergavenny uses local old red sandstone, lime render and Welsh slate. Hillside farmhouses and barns often have thick rubble walls that need lime-based repairs and careful damp management.
