Every room has been upgraded in our extended bungalow by Barlow Construction. It took five months of continuous work and we can only describe it as faultless, not a word we use lightly. From day one their prime concern was to make sure we got what we wanted, with quality, politeness and excellent communication. Scrubbing the new patio on the last day summed up their whole attitude.

Builders in Selby
Selby is about 55 minutes from our yard. We cover the town and the villages around it, from Riccall and Hemingbrough to Tadcaster and Sherburn in Elmet.
The land around Selby is low and flat, and the ground matters. Soft clays and a high water table mean foundations have to be designed by an engineer, and parts of the district sit in flood zones that affect floor levels and planning.
We deal with that before a spade goes in, with the engineer and the architect, so the extension you get is built on something that will not move.
Building around Selby
Foundations first
We work to the engineer's design, whether that is deeper trench fill, a raft or piles. It is the part of the job you never see and the one that matters most.
Flood zones
Where a property sits in a flood zone, planning may ask for raised floor levels or flood resilient construction. We build to the approved design.
Planning
Planning in the old Selby district is now handled by North Yorkshire Council.

Do you cover Tadcaster and Sherburn in Elmet?
Yes, as well as Selby, Riccall, Hemingbrough, Barlby, Brayton, Thorpe Willoughby and Cawood.
Does being in a flood zone stop me extending?
Not usually, but planning may need a flood risk assessment and conditions such as raised floor levels. Your architect will advise and we build to the approved design.
