Why BUILT in Coleford ## A contractor with the capacity to deliver We're close by, and we understand Forest building traditions, ground conditions and the practicalities of working on its hilly sites. On many projects in Coleford, the biggest risk isn'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 Coleford 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' 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 Coleford ### Property types Stone cottages often have thick walls and small rooms, and need breathable materials and careful structural alterations. ### Climate and flooding The wooded, upland setting can be damp and exposed, making good drainage, ventilation and weathertight detailing important. ### Infrastructure and access Coleford has a long mining and quarrying history, including free mining. Some sites may need a mining report or ground investigation before foundations are designed. ### Building age Many properties date from the 19th century, with past alterations that need checking at survey. Planning in Coleford ## Planning and regulations Forest of Dean District Council handles planning in Coleford. Parts of the area fall within conservation areas and close to the Wye Valley National Landscape, and former mining may require ground investigation on some sites. Typical projects ## Projects we take on in Coleford Typical Coleford projects include converting garages into extra rooms, extending stone cottages in Berry Hill and Broadwell, loft conversions, and new builds on plots around the town. ### Local materials and character Coleford's buildings are mostly local Forest sandstone and brick, with slate and tile roofs. Matching stone and lime mortars helps extensions to cottages look like part of the original.
