Two become one

The dining area.

Owners Bill and Janet Johnson couldn't praise their builders more highly:-

"Alan and Paul have transformed our home from a run-down cottage with a dilapidated barn into a valuable, useful and delightful property. We lived on site for the seven months duration of the works and they were a pleasure to have around. Funny, good company, patient and helpful, yet utterly professional. They fed our pot bellied pig, kept the site immaculately tidy and even gave the neighbours whiskey and chocolates as a thank you for tolerating our encroachment on their property. We highly recommend them."
