Builders and Carpenters in Southfleet
Everwood Construction is a building and carpentry contractor working in Southfleet and the surrounding area, with over two decades of experience.
Building and Carpentry in Southfleet
Around the older core sit twentieth century houses on generous plots, mostly detached and semi detached with deep gardens. These homes take rear extensions well, and where the roof is cut with traditional rafters, a loft conversion is often a good option too. Garden rooms do particularly well in Southfleet because there is usually the space for them, and they give you an office or a studio without taking anything away from the house.

Homes in Southfleet
Chalk underlies much of this area, and it is generally sound to build on, although old workings do turn up occasionally. If footings need to go deeper than expected, we tell you as soon as we know, with photographs and a clear price for the extra work, so there are no surprises when the final invoice arrives.
We work throughout the village, including the homes around the church, Hook Green, Betsham and Westwood, and we are a short drive from Gravesend. Because Southfleet is surrounded by orchards and farmland on most sides, the planning rules are tighter than in the towns nearby, and we plan every project around them from the start.
Working in the Local Area
Green belt is the main planning constraint in Southfleet. It limits the scale of extensions and can sometimes rule out separate buildings altogether. Your designer establishes exactly what applies to your address, and we build to whatever is approved, keeping you informed at every stage.
Because the village is small and the lanes are narrow, deliveries and skip positions need to be agreed in advance. We plan all of that at the survey, so your neighbours are not inconvenienced and the first morning on site runs smoothly.
Mobile signal and broadband can be patchy in parts of a rural village like this one. Good communication matters when drawings need to be sent over or payments taken, so we agree the best way to send drawings and take payments at the survey, which keeps your project moving.

What should I know about building work in Southfleet?
Outbuildings are common in Southfleet, and a good many of them are worth converting. An old brick store or stable with sound walls and a decent roof can become a workshop, an office or a garden studio for less than a new building would cost, and it usually sits far more comfortably in a village setting. We will give you an honest view on whether yours is a good candidate before you spend anything.
What sort of homes do you work on in Southfleet?
The older parts of the village are home to period cottages and farmhouses with solid walls, timber frames in places and floors that have settled over the centuries. Homes like these need careful repair, and we take the time to do it well. Our joinery is made to measure so it fits the building properly. Our own team carries out the carpentry, so matching an old door, a sash or a run of skirting is something we do with care and attention to detail.
