LOCAL BUILDERS — ACLE, NORFOLK
Extensions and renovations for Acle and the Broads villages between Norwich and Yarmouth.
Acle sits in the heart of the Broads, with older cottages near the centre and bungalows and family homes on the edge of the village. We build extensions, carry out renovations and take on structural work in Acle and the surrounding villages – including just up the road in South Walsham, where we recently completed a family extension.

WHAT WE DO
One local team for the whole job – from the first conversation to the final snagging.
Rear extensions, kitchen-diners and garden rooms built to suit cottages, bungalows and family homes.
Adding bedrooms in the roof of a bungalow or chalet – a good way to gain space without losing the garden.
Full refurbishments, damp and structural repairs, new bathrooms and opening up rooms with steel beams.
BUILDING IN ACLE
Broads planning, flood risk and village access.
Most planning and Building Control around Acle is handled by Broadland District Council (through South Norfolk and Broadland). Homes close to the rivers and marshes can fall within the area where the Broads Authority is the planning authority instead, and we check which applies at the first visit.
Low-lying land near the River Bure and the marshes can sit in a flood zone. Extensions there may need a flood risk assessment and raised floor levels, which we plan into the design and the price from the start.

NEAREST COMPLETED PROJECT
A bigger lounge, a home office and an extra shower room.
Just three miles from Acle, we extended this South Walsham home for a professional couple with teenage children who were starting to work from home. The extension gave them a larger lounge, a dedicated office and an extra shower room – so they could stay in the village they love rather than move.

USEFUL TO KNOW
Straight answers to what people usually ask us first.
Yes. Acle is well within our working area, and we have recently completed an extension in South Walsham, three miles away.
Some riverside and marsh-edge properties are. The Broads Authority publishes a map of its area, and we check this before any drawings are submitted.
If your home is in a flood zone, the council will usually ask for a flood risk assessment. It rarely stops an extension, but it can affect floor levels and design – we tell you early.
Yes. We carry £10 million public liability and £10 million employers’ liability insurance, and give a 12-month workmanship guarantee on completed work.
