Studwork, joists and linings set out square in Soham

Soham is about 16 miles south west of Brandon and squarely inside our normal patch. Soham, Ely and Mildenhall and the villages around them all sit inside our core area.

Soham falls under East Cambridgeshire District 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.

Soham is an older fen edge core with a large amount of recent estate development around it. The complication is a separate matter. Soham combines fen edge ground with a lot of very new stock. 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 16 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.

Soham is an older fen edge core with a large amount of recent estate development around it. That shapes what we expect to find once the floor is up or the ceiling is down, which is where structural work starts.

The recent estate plots in Soham are compact and regular. The plot decides how timber and materials get to the back of the house, which matters more than people expect on a job with long lengths.

The council decides, not us. Structural work is inspected through building control, and if the house is listed there may be a separate consent to ask about, so we raise both at the first visit. For a property in Soham the authority that decides is East Cambridgeshire District Council, and we will tell you plainly what we think before you contact them.

Yes. The nearest other towns on our list to Soham are Ely, Mildenhall, Newmarket, Lakenheath and Brandon, and the villages in between are covered as well. Each of those has its own page for first fix carpentry, linked further down this page.

Yes. It most often runs alongside second fix carpentry, extension work and renovation work, and because one team does the carpentry throughout there is no gap between trades. At about 16 miles from our base, putting the work into one programme also means one run of travel instead of several.
