Why BUILT in Herefordshire ## A contractor with the capacity to deliver Lee Miles comes from three generations of builders and has 25 years of experience in the trade. With 25 tradespeople, 4 office staff and our own units and offices, we have the capacity for large rural projects that smaller local firms can't resource. On many projects in Herefordshire, 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 Herefordshire 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 Herefordshire ### Property types Timber-framed and solid-walled buildings need specialist handling. Repairs and alterations should use compatible materials so the building can breathe, and listed buildings need listed building consent for many types of work. ### Climate and flooding The Wye and Lugg river valleys are prone to flooding, and heavy clay soils in parts of the county can move with wet and dry seasons. Both affect foundation design and drainage on new builds and extensions. ### Infrastructure and access Much of rural Herefordshire has no mains drainage, so private treatment plants are common. In recent years, nutrient (phosphate) pollution in the River Wye and Lugg catchments has affected planning approvals for new homes in parts of the county. That's why an early, honest assessment of planning likelihood matters before you commit. ### Building age Many farm buildings and cottages are centuries old, with shallow foundations and altered roof structures. We survey these buildings carefully so structural work is priced from the outset. Planning in Herefordshire ## Planning and regulations Herefordshire Council is the planning authority for the whole county. Rural planning policy, conservation areas, listed buildings and nutrient neutrality in the River Wye and Lugg catchments all shape what gets approved. That makes early, honest advice valuable, which is why our design and build package assesses approval likelihood before you commit. Typical projects ## Projects we take on in Herefordshire Across Herefordshire we take on everything from extensions in Hereford's suburbs and conversions of hop kilns and barns in the Golden Valley, to new homes on rural plots and steel-frame buildings for farms and food producers. ### Local materials and character Herefordshire's buildings use oak timber framing with lime or brick infill, red sandstone, local brick and clay tiles or Welsh slate. Repairs and extensions should use compatible materials, especially on listed or conservation-area properties.
