Builder in Melksham.

Modern stock, modernising at pace.

Melksham's housing tells the story of postwar British development: 1950s council estates, 1970s mass-build semis, 1990s/2000s executive estates around Bowerhill, and a wave of post-2010 development from Berryfield north to Beanacre. It's a town defined by movement.

Most of our SN12 work is on this newer stock — extensions, garage conversions, kitchen renovations and patio/driveway upgrades on properties where the original spec is starting to feel dated. The structural fabric is generally good (modern foundations, cavity walls, properly damp-proofed), so projects move faster than the period work in Bath or Bradford-on-Avon.

The A350 corridor — Beanacre, Lacock, the new Hampton Park developments to the south — has driven steady demand for garage conversions and home offices since the shift to remote work. We've fitted out dozens of these.
