Builders in Fakenham

Fakenham is a busy market town on the River Wensum, known for its Thursday market, its racecourse and a town centre of Georgian and Victorian buildings around the Market Place and the Church of St Peter and St Paul. It is the main town for a large area of rural North Norfolk, with villages, farms and estates in every direction.

Fakenham's housing ranges from period town houses and terraces in the conservation area to 20th-century estates and newer developments on the edge of town. That makes for a broad mix of work: rear and side extensions, loft conversions, kitchen and bathroom refits and full renovations, alongside careful repairs to older brick and flint buildings.

The villages around Fakenham are full of flint cottages, farmhouses and barns, many of them listed or ripe for conversion. Our specialism in listed and period buildings means we can take on barn conversions, sympathetic extensions and restoration work with the right materials and approach.

Fakenham is about 12 miles from Holt, roughly 20 minutes along the A148, and we cover the surrounding villages too, including Hempton, Sculthorpe, Great Ryburgh and the Barshams.

Typical jobs around Fakenham include extending 1960s and 1970s houses to create open-plan kitchen and family rooms, loft conversions, replacement roofs, bathroom refits, and converting agricultural buildings into homes and holiday lets. We manage every trade in-house, from groundworks and brickwork to carpentry, plastering and decorating, so you have a single team from the first visit onward. Garden projects such as patios, decking and new boundary walls are part of what we do too.
