Oak and softwood cart lodges near Watton

Watton sits about 13 miles north east of Brandon, well inside our core area. Watton, Swaffham and Thetford and the villages around them all sit inside our core area.

Watton falls under Breckland Council. Anything structural, or anything that changes the footprint, is decided and inspected by them rather than by us. We build to what has been approved and work to the inspection stages on the programme.

For cart lodge work the site matters more than the house. The newer estate plots in Watton are compact and clearly defined. The newer stock here is well built and noticeably short on storage. Two houses on the same street can differ on this, so a number quoted down the phone is a guess. We price from the property, never from a template.

At about 13 miles from our base, getting out to measure up is straightforward rather than something we have to schedule weeks ahead. Call or send the enquiry form and we will arrange a time that suits you. The quote costs nothing.
