Property CareHome › Where we work › Buckden
Buckden, and its considerable stock of old buildings.
A village that has had a bishops palace in it since the twelfth century tends to take its buildings seriously. Buckden has more listed and period property per street than almost anywhere else in our patch, alongside the newer houses out towards the bypass, and the two want opposite things. Old buildings want patience, breathable materials and restraint. Newer ones usually want the improvements the developer left out.

Period property is where the repair-before-replacement instinct earns its keep. Timber windows eased and maintained rather than ripped out, joinery matched rather than replaced, and an honest answer when a job needs a specialist in lime, thatch or structural work rather than us. Being close by means we can do that slowly and properly rather than in one expensive visit.
The services on this site are starting points rather than a menu. They can be combined, taken apart, or reduced to the single job you actually want doing. If all you need is a curtain pole hung, a patch of damaged wall made good or a sticking door eased, ring and ask for exactly that.
