Every project on this page was built by DC Carpentry & Construction, a family-run builder in Chorley, Lancashire. Each one starts with a before and after, then shows the whole build stage by stage: the groundworks, the steel, the frame and the finish. Free site visit. Call 01257 543082.
The whole build, not just the finish
Finished photos are lovely, but they don’t tell you much about a builder. Anyone can photograph a nice kitchen.
What tells you more is what happened before the plaster went on. The foundations, the steel, the way the old house was opened up and held up while the new part went on. That’s the part you’re trusting us with, so that’s what we show you.
