Builders and Carpenters in Swanscombe
Everwood Construction is a building and carpentry contractor working in Swanscombe and the surrounding area, with over two decades of experience.
Building and Carpentry in Swanscombe
The postwar semi detached and detached houses have more garden and give you more scope. A rear extension works well on these plots, and a loft conversion is realistic where the roof is built from cut timber. Trussed roofs need a different approach, so we always check the roof structure when we carry out the survey.
Homes in Swanscombe
Chalk underlies the whole town, and the old quarries have left made ground in some places. This matters once we start digging footings, because the ground under one street is not always the same as the ground under the next. Trial holes give us a clear answer, so we dig them before we price the work, and your quotation is based on what is really there.
Swanscombe sits between Greenhithe and Northfleet. The church and the older streets are on the higher ground, and the newer development runs down towards Ebbsfleet and the river. The high speed station at Ebbsfleet is close by.
Working in the Local Area
A lot of our work in Swanscombe is about making the most of smaller houses for the families who live in them. We open up the ground floor, fit joinery into awkward alcoves, and refit kitchens and bathrooms that were last done decades ago. Our team has been doing this kind of work for over two decades, and we treat every home with the same care and attention as if it were our own.
Access in the terraced streets is often through the front door only, with no side gate. That changes how materials and waste move in and out of the house, so we plan the route from the very start. We agree it with you, protect the floors and walls along the way, and keep the disruption to your household as low as we can.
The high speed station at Ebbsfleet has brought a great deal of change to the area, and more people are choosing to stay and improve their houses here. Renovation work is now the bulk of what we do in Swanscombe, and it suits us well because we carry out both the building and the carpentry with our own team. The business is run by Nick Wood, and we have been Checkatrade members since 2015 with a score of 9.98 out of 10.

Swanscombe: Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cover the DA10 postcode?
Yes. Everwood Construction works throughout Swanscombe and the surrounding area, covering DA10.
Which areas near Swanscombe do you cover?
As well as Swanscombe we work in Stone, Northfleet, Gravesend and the rest of the surrounding area across Kent and South East London.
What should I know about building work in Swanscombe?
A good many of these houses still have their original single glazed sash windows, or early replacements that are now failing. If scaffolding is already up for other work, replacing the windows at the same time saves you paying for access twice. In our experience it also makes far more difference to how warm and comfortable the house feels than most people expect.
What sort of homes do you work on in Swanscombe?
The terraced houses in Swanscombe have solid walls, small rear yards in place of long gardens, and their original layouts of small separate rooms. Most of the work we do on these homes is renovation. We open up the ground floor, refit kitchens and bathrooms, and replace staircases and joinery that are now a century old or more. Because our carpentry is carried out by our own skilled team, the new joinery is made to suit the room it is going into.
