Barn conversions require specialist skills and techniques. These majestic buildings were rarely built for residential use. Large, lofty spaces that lack proper insulation and have intention draught inducing windows to aid harvest collection or animal care. While they served their purpose at one time, nowadays barns have become a much coveted and admired option for family homes. Here at Durston Construction, we have a proven record and extensive experience in delivering beautiful and inspiring barn conversions for clients in Somerset and across the west country.

This type of project requires a very specific degree of knowledge. There are many aspects to take into consideration before, during and after converting a barn. Initial planning needs to be in keeping with the surrounding area and aligned with any restrictions, particularly those on grade II listed buildings. You also need to aware of any environmental regulations or wildlife protection legislations that prevent large scale and damaging activity to protect the local area. With experience in old and listed buildings of all different types, we can ensure that all avenues are covered.
