Contact Spencer’s Builders: Traditional Craftsmanship for Historic Properties
Whether you’re the proud owner of a listed building, in the process of purchasing a period property, or simply need advice on stonework repairs, lime pointing, or building conservation, contact Spencer’s Builders as we’re here to help. Based in the heart of the Three Counties region, we work across Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, and Herefordshire, providing expert traditional building services for some of the region’s most historically significant homes.
Why Contact a Traditional Builder?
Owning a Grade II listed property, period home, or historic building is a privilege, but also a responsibility. These properties were built using techniques and materials very different from modern construction, and inappropriate repairs or unsympathetic renovations can lead to irreversible damage. That’s why it’s vital to work with specialists who understand the unique needs of heritage properties.
At Spencer’s Builders, we’re not just general builders—we are listed property specialists, stonework experts, and conservation professionals. From lime mortar repointing in the Cotswolds, to stone wall repairs in Painswick, or full-scale period property renovations in Winchcombe, we bring extensive experience and traditional skills to every project.
Contact Us For Our Services Which Include:
- Full property inspections and condition reports
- Identification of building defects in historic properties
- Advice on and management of listed building consent
- Carefully planned schedules of repair
- Project management of conservation works
- Specialist lime work, including lime plastering and lime pointing
- Repairs to historic stonework, period brickwork, and timber features
- Expertise in sympathetic extensions and barn conversions
We’ve spent decades building trusted relationships with local conservation officers, planners, and heritage consultants throughout areas like Ashleworth, Hasfield, Redmarley, Upleadon, and Minchinhampton. This experience means we can guide our clients through the sometimes complex planning and consent processes with confidence.
Considering Repairs or Renovation? Talk to Us First
Many property owners are unsure whether the work they’re planning requires listed building consent. The truth is, even relatively minor repairs—such as changing a window, installing a new bathroom, or repointing stonework—may require permission if the work affects the historic fabric of the building.
We understand that the process can be daunting, especially for those new to owning a listed or period property. That’s why we offer clear, honest, and tailored advice. We can explain whether consent is needed, what materials are appropriate, and how to carry out the work in a way that both protects the building and satisfies the local authority. Contact us!
We’re Always Happy to Help
If you’re unsure about any aspect of your building project—whether it’s repointing a stone wall in Corse, restoring lime plasterwork in the Forest of Dean, or planning a full heritage renovation in Newent—please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
We take pride in offering a personal service to every client. We’re approachable, knowledgeable, and passionate about what we do. Every enquiry is treated with care and attention, and we’re always happy to provide a no-obligation consultation or site visit if needed.
