Builders in Prestbury, Cheltenham
Building Services in Prestbury
We’re a building company based in Gorsley, around 40 minutes from Prestbury, working on renovations, extensions and new builds across the village and the roads around Cheltenham Racecourse. Prestbury keeps a real village character, with its own conservation area, old cottages and Cotswold stone, alongside larger family homes towards Cleeve Hill. Our own team runs every job from design and groundworks to the final finish.
House Extensions in Prestbury
Kitchen-diners, garden-room extensions, wraparounds and two-storey additions, designed to suit the house and the village setting. In and around the conservation area that usually means matching stone, brick or render and keeping the scale right. We handle drawings, Cheltenham Borough Council planning and Building Regulations for you.
New Builds in Prestbury
Infill plots and replacement dwellings in Prestbury are judged on how well they fit the village character, and land towards Cleeve Hill sits close to the Cotswolds National Landscape. We look at siting, materials and drainage at feasibility stage so the design is right before it goes to planning.
Home Renovations in Prestbury
Prestbury has its own conservation area, with older cottages, Cotswold stone and a strong village centre. We renovate period homes with care, keeping the features that give them character while updating layouts, kitchens, bathrooms and services. Where consent is needed, we agree the approach with the council before work starts.
Driveways & Landscaping in Prestbury
Driveways, terraces, garden rooms, boundary walls and drainage, built to suit village plots and larger gardens alike. We cover Prestbury, Southam, Woodmancote and the roads around Cheltenham Racecourse.

FAQ's
Is Prestbury a conservation area?
Prestbury has its own conservation area covering the historic village centre. Extensions and alterations there, or to listed buildings anywhere in the village, may need extra consent, which we handle with Cheltenham Borough Council.
Do race days affect building work?
They can affect access around the racecourse, particularly during the March Festival. We plan deliveries and site work around the racing calendar so the build keeps moving.
Can you build a new home on an infill plot in Prestbury?
Yes. We look at siting, scale and materials to make sure the design fits the village, and handle planning, Building Regulations and the build itself.
Do you cover Southam and Woodmancote?
Yes. We cover Prestbury along with Southam, Woodmancote and the rest of Cheltenham, working from our base in Gorsley.
What kind of projects do you take on in Prestbury?
Mainly high-quality renovations of period homes, kitchen-diner and garden-room extensions, and new homes on village plots.
Do you handle the design as well?
Yes. We can take a project from first sketches through planning to handover, working with architects and structural engineers through our design service.
Will the conservation area affect my extension in Prestbury?
It can. In a conservation area, side extensions, external cladding and some roof alterations need planning permission, and the council looks closely at materials and scale. Rear extensions designed to suit the house are usually the most straightforward.
