Builders in Holt

Big Sky Construction is based in Holt, so the town and its surrounding villages are home turf. We are local builders for extensions, renovations, barn conversions and listed building work across NR25.

Holt is one of North Norfolk's best-preserved Georgian market towns. After a fire swept through the town in 1708, much of the centre was rebuilt in brick and flint, which is why the High Street, the Market Place and the lanes around Shirehall Plain are lined with handsome period buildings, many of them listed and within the town's conservation area.

That history shapes the work we do here. Period homes in Holt need builders who understand flint walling, soft red brick, clay pantiles and lime-based materials, and who know how to extend or modernise a historic house without spoiling it. Listed building work and sympathetic renovation are our specialism, alongside the everyday extensions, kitchens, bathrooms and roofing jobs that keep the town's homes comfortable.

Beyond the town centre, Holt's newer streets and the surrounding villages, including High Kelling, Letheringsett, Hempstead, Baconsthorpe and Edgefield, have homes of every age. We carry out rear and side extensions, loft conversions, bathroom refits, roofing and landscaping across all of them.

Because we are based here, a site visit anywhere in Holt or the NR25 villages is quick to arrange and there is never a call-out charge. Several of our recent projects are just up the road in Kelling, and you can see them below and on our projects page.

Typical jobs in and around Holt include single-storey kitchen extensions onto the garden, loft conversions in older cottages, replacement roofs in matching pantiles, new bathrooms, and garden rooms, patios and decking. Because we handle every trade ourselves, from groundworks and brickwork to carpentry, plastering and decorating, you deal with one team from the first visit to the final clean.
