LOCAL BUILDERS — WALCOTT, BACTON & HAPPISBURGH, NORFOLK
Extensions, barn conversions and renovations on the coast just down the road from us.
This stretch of coast is home ground for us – our office in North Walsham is only a few miles away, and we have completed four projects in Walcott alone, from a derelict 1762 barn turned into a family home to a 1950s prefabricated bungalow brought fully up to date. We build extensions, convert barns and renovate homes in Walcott, Bacton, Happisburgh and the villages around them.

WHAT WE DO
One local team for the whole job – from the first conversation to the final snagging.
Turning old farm buildings into homes and holiday lets – we have completed several in Walcott.
Rear and side extensions, kitchen-diners and garden rooms designed for coastal homes and bungalows.
Insulation, rewiring, new kitchens and bathrooms – turning older and prefabricated bungalows into warm, modern homes.
BUILDING IN WALCOTT, BACTON & HAPPISBURGH
Coastal erosion, salt air and the Norfolk coast.
Planning and Building Control here are handled by North Norfolk District Council. Parts of this coast, especially around Happisburgh, are affected by coastal erosion, and the council applies tighter planning rules to properties in areas at risk. We check where your property sits before any plans are drawn.
Homes this close to the sea face salt air, driving rain and strong winds. We choose materials, fixings and details that stand up to it – and we have seen on our own Walcott projects what lasts on this coast.
OUR WORK IN WALCOTT
A derelict 1762 barn turned into a family home.
This 1762 barn had stood for more than 260 years when we took it on. We repaired failed brickwork, carried out extensive repairs to the roof structure and strengthened the foundations, turning it into a luxury family home while keeping its original character. It is one of four projects we have completed in Walcott.
