Our services

Our expert teams of swimming pool suppliers offer installations to fit most budgets, be it a smaller pool for cooling off, family-sized pools for summer fun, or ‘show stoppers’ to really add value to your property and give it that ‘Wow factor’! Anything is possible with a wide range of options from liner pools to Monocoque/fibreglass solutions. 

All expertly installed with a 10 year guarantee.

We are specialists in renovating French properties,  uniquely placed to bring a wealth of knowledge to any project, be it a "Grand Design" or a simple gite/house conversion. With our expert advice on planning and construction, we can turn those outbuildings into rental units, creating the home of your dreams or simply extending your existing property!

A rural property unconnected to mains drainage or utilities presents a challenge to even the most skilful of renovators. With the connection packages we offer, we will ensure that your property meets the government requirements (whether prior to sale or prior to purchase) with modern compact systems that sit happily beneath parking areas or lawns.

Replacing a rotting, leaking roof is often the first job on any property renovation list. Working with the same roofing team for the past 22 years, we'll change the timbers, re-batten and cover the roof with a selection of new and pre-used tiles to give it (wherever possible) that all-important "weathered" look. We use oak or Douglas Fir interior timbers, pegged together in the traditional style and then covered or left exposed as per the client's requirements. 

The perfect addition to any French property, a log burner or open fire can turn that freezing sitting room into the heart of your new home. From traditional log fires, stylish wood stoves to cutting-edge modern pellet burners, all our installations are carried out by our accredited fitters and we offer a range of styles and sizes to suit all budgets. 

We can also re-commission existing installations, bringing them up to modern French insurance standards (distances between the chimney conduit and any wooden beams etc, are strictly regulated), and any new installation must conform to rigorous carbon monoxide standards.  

The perfect choice of windows and doors can lift a tired property or bring new life to an old barn. When renovating or replacing existing windows with new, our made-to-measure service for wooden, aluminium, or PVC frames ensures that ‘wow’ factor. 

New openings can be created in any wall, be it for a new front door or a sliding terrace door out to the pool. We can also provide traditional or composite fold-back shutters or incorporate electric roller shutters into any new design.

Whether it’s a full re-wire or just a few additional circuits for an extension, we'll discuss layouts and help choose fixtures and fittings to create a safe and secure system that meets French legal requirements (very different from those in place in the UK! ).

A new bathroom can transform a recent purchase, so we'll design and fit out the room to your specification, assist with tiling & sanitary ware choices, and connect into existing waste systems. 

We can also fit the kitchen of your choice, replacing an existing model or creating a completely new space.

Once the roof is sound, the next step is to create the ceilings and internal walls. Our experts will insulate and plasterboard ceilings and exterior walls and fit partition & stud walls to create your dream interior. Our team will also repair or re-plaster internal stone walls, with a smooth finish or to match the existing.

Using traditional methods, we can also point internal or external walls to complete the look of your building

 The microclimate in the Poitou-Charentes lends itself perfectly to the vast range of "renewable" green energy sources available on the market. From solar panels to reduce those electricity bills to heat pumps to heat the house in winter and cool it in the summer, our experts can provide the ideal solution to your needs.

A survey to assess a property before purchase or a structural investigation to verify the solidity of a building prior to commencing a project will provide you with the necessary reports and recommendations to ensure that any work you wish to carry out can be accomplished safely. 

From a full building survey to a worry about a crack in a wall, our structural engineers will visit the property, discuss your requirements, and put together a report showing all areas of concern.

Working closely with major suppliers in the south west, we are able to source exceptional quality sanitary ware and tiles to design and fit out your dream bathroom. Whether it’s a reclaimed, cast iron claw-foot bath tub or a wifi connected shaving mirror, the sky’s the limit!

The pool might already be in place, or it might have been recently installed – what better way to finish off the project than with a contemporary pool house & sauna? 

Created from scratch, each pool house is designed to your requirements and can be fitted out to suit your needs (a summer kitchen, a bathroom & changing room, a cigar-bar and a fitness area are just some of the ideas that we have realised for our clients!) This is especially useful if the pool is a distance from the house!

From rustic charm to sleek modern design, we can fit kitchens that are both beautiful and functional. Our team handles installation, plumbing, electrics, and finishes so you get a kitchen tailored to your lifestyle and ready to use from day one.

Working with one of France’s leading staircase designers, if the space exists, we can install any staircase – be it an ultra-modern design taking influences from the deck of a sailing ship to simple, traditional ladder staircases for the most budget conscious.

Whether the system is electric, infra-red, or attached to a boiler/heat pump, underfloor heating (once an expensive luxury) is now the perfect way to heat your house or converted outbuilding.

Economic and unobtrusive, the systems can be split into zones to heat just a part of a room or programmed to turn on and off as required. A must for anyone planning on spending their winters in the Aquitaine!

Often overlooked, the guttering around your new home needs to be in good condition and funnel water away from the wall heads in an efficient manner. No matter the material, be it zinc, PVC, or aluminium, leaks, holes, and splits can cause damp patches inside the building and lead to serious problems if not repaired in a timely fashion.

Our tradesmen offer replacements of all three types of guttering and can supply pvc and aluminium in a range of colours to match shutters and windows.
