Areas we cover

Powys & the Brecon Beacons

Powys is a large, thinly populated county of exposed upland sites, solid stone farmhouses and converted agricultural buildings — the work the practice was set up to do properly.

Local coverage

Towns and villages covered

Instructions are regularly taken in Brecon and the surrounding parishes. The full list of towns and villages for this area is being finalised.

Local building stock

What we survey here

  • Solid stone farmhouses and upland cottages
  • Converted barns and former agricultural buildings
  • Slate roofs on exposed elevations
  • Off-mains drainage, private supplies and long access tracks

Exposure

Driven rain on an exposed west or south-west elevation defeats details that perform perfectly elsewhere. Where an elevation is failing because of exposure rather than defect, the report says so and prices the difference.

Barn conversions

Conversions carried out under permitted development or older consents vary enormously in quality. Structural adequacy, insulation, and how moisture now moves through the building are all inspected on their own terms.
