It’s important to make the right choice when working on a listed building. Poor or incorrect work on a listed building can have a huge impact, not just from an appearance perspective. With listed buildings you have to maintain certain aspects of its character and appearance, and you may require consent to make alterations.
People often don’t realise how much restoring a listed property can be, so it’s important to choose the right people to do the work. Incorrectly completed work may break certain regulations and laws, meaning you could end up having to start all over again!
