With its guildhall, windmill and timber-framed streets, Thaxted is heritage Essex at its best — and heritage buildings need builders who are carpenters first. That's us, twenty-five minutes up the road.
We're a family-run building firm of eight, led by Dan Nevill from Bishop's Stortford and working across Essex every week. The core team are time-served carpenters — which shows in the finish — and every project runs through one team, one point of contact, start to handover.
Traditional timber work — repairs, replacements and bespoke pieces for old frames.
