Builders in Gateshead
Gateshead, Low Fell, Whickham, Blaydon and Birtley are all on our doorstep. Brickwork, extensions, groundworks, plastering, insulation and steel beams. Small jobs welcome, we do not have a minimum spend that rules out a decent bit of work.
What building work in Gateshead usually involves
Gateshead runs from tight terraced streets near the river up to the bigger detached property in Low Fell and Whickham. The ground gets steep in places, which matters more than people realise. Retaining walls, stepped foundations and drainage runs all need thinking about properly on a sloping plot.
A lot of the semi detached stock around Low Fell and Wrekenton was built between the wars with cavity walls that are now either empty or badly filled. Sorting the insulation properly, along with the loft, is usually the cheapest thing you can do to knock money off a heating bill.

Gateshead questions we get asked a lot
Do you build retaining walls in Gateshead?
Yes, and it is common round here because of the slopes. Anything over about a metre needs proper design, drainage behind it and the right footing, otherwise it bulges and fails. We do not build them on the cheap.
Do you install RSJ steel beams for knock throughs?
Yes. You will need a structural engineer calculation and building control sign off, and we can point you to an engineer if you have not got one lined up.
What areas of Gateshead do you cover?
All of it, plus Whickham, Blaydon, Birtley, Ryton and Rowlands Gill.
