Builders in Romsey
Building work for Romsey homes and businesses.
Romsey is one of the towns we cover from our base in Southampton. We take on everything from a single new bathroom to a full house extension, for homeowners and for businesses.
We have pages for several kinds of work in Romsey: house extensions, garage conversions, kitchens, renovations and refurbishments. Whichever you need, one team organises every trade and a project manager keeps you updated.
We’ve been trading since 2010, and the business is still run by Adrian Royle, who founded it. We’re a Which? Trusted Trader and have been a Checkatrade member since October 2011.
We’re fully insured, with public and employer’s liability cover, and every project starts with a free quotation and consultation.

How it works
Planning a project in an older town.
In a town with a conservation area, the right first question is often whether your home is inside it. We check that at the start, along with whether the building is listed, because both affect what can be done without an application and how long the process takes.
That shapes the design. An extension, a new window opening or a change to the outside of the house may need planning permission in the conservation area when it wouldn’t elsewhere. Work to trees there needs six weeks’ written notice to Test Valley Borough Council. Internal work is usually less affected, unless the building is listed.
Once the plan is clear, the project runs like any other: one team organises every trade, a project manager keeps you updated, and we plan the work around you. We talk you through the finished job at handover and leave you with any aftercare guidance you need.
Planning in Romsey
Planning and the conservation area in Romsey.
Planning applications in Romsey are decided by Test Valley Borough Council. The town has a conservation area, first designated in 1970 and reviewed in 2020, and much of the Old Town lies within it.
A conservation area changes some of the rules. Side extensions and rear extensions of more than one storey need planning permission there, exterior cladding isn’t permitted development, and trees are protected, with six weeks’ written notice needed before work on them. We’ll check whether your home is affected and advise from the start.
Before you start
Three checks and a conversation.
Is your home in the conservation area?
Much of Romsey’s Old Town is. It affects what can be built without planning permission, so we check it first.
Is the building listed?
Listed buildings need consent for most changes, inside and out. We’ll help you find out if you’re not sure.
Are there trees near the work?
In a conservation area, trees are protected and six weeks’ notice is needed before work on them.
