Listed Building Specialists
At D Catt Builders, listed buildings are where our craftsmanship really shows.
With over 40 years’ experience restoring listed and heritage properties across Buckinghamshire, we understand the care these projects demand, from sourcing reclaimed materials to working sympathetically within conservation guidelines.
It’s exacting, specialist work, and it’s our best work:
Every listed building we complete draws on decades of hands-on restoration expertise, fully insured and accredited, built to stand as long as the building itself.

How We Work
Intentional Structure
Every listed building extension begins with a plan built on integrity, not shortcuts. We assess structural integrity, material compatibility, and long-term durability to create extensions that work with the building’s history, not against it.
Expert Facilitation
Navigating conservation officers, planning permission, and heritage consent can be daunting. We act as a single point of contact between homeowners, architects, and local authorities, translating requirements into practical, buildable solutions.
Client Understanding
We start by listening — understanding not just what you want to build, but why the property matters to you. That insight shapes every decision, from material sourcing to timeline, so the finished extension feels like a natural continuation of your home.
Sympathetic Restoration
We use reclaimed and period-appropriate materials, matching the intent of the original builders. Our work respects the character, craftsmanship, and history of the building, working in harmony with conservation guidelines.
