Based in Uplyme, providing experienced building work, alterations and property improvements across East Devon, West Dorset and South Somerset.
Let's Get Started ↗Not every project calls for a full renovation. Sometimes it's a structural alteration, a damaged wall, an opening between rooms or a series of practical improvements that need experienced building work.
For homes in Charmouth, it can be useful to consider weatherproofing and materials when organising building repairs or external alterations. The property itself determines the right specification.
Based in Uplyme, Rawlins Renovations brings over 45 years of building-industry experience to projects of different sizes. We discuss the condition of the property, the work needed and sensible next steps before construction begins.

Useful information on improving existing homes, arranging structural work and preparing for a building project in Charmouth.
We can discuss property alterations, masonry repairs, structural building work and practical improvements to existing homes. The right approach depends on the condition of the building and the scale of the proposed changes.
Older Charmouth properties may have stone walls, lime mortar or details that need careful treatment. We look at the existing materials and construction before discussing repairs or alterations that respect the character of the building.
Potentially, yes. Opening up a kitchen or living area can involve load-bearing walls, so a structural assessment and suitable design may be needed before work starts. We can discuss the building work once the requirements are clear.
Wind-driven rain and exposure can highlight problems with pointing, masonry and water penetration. We can review the visible condition of walls and discuss suitable repair work; the underlying cause should be understood before selecting materials.
Yes, general building enquiries do not have to involve a complete renovation. Tell us what needs attention, whether that is a wall repair, alteration or a group of improvements, and we can discuss the scope.
Some internal work may not need planning permission, but structural alterations can still require Building Regulations approval. Listed buildings and properties in conservation areas may have additional restrictions. Check with Dorset Council before proceeding.
Yes. An extension often involves foundations, masonry, structural connections and making good where the new space meets the existing house. Coordinating these elements early helps establish a clear sequence of work.
Use our contact page to share the property location, a brief description of the work and any photographs or drawings available. We can then discuss what information is needed to assess the project and prepare a quotation.
