Traditional craftsmanship on a serious scale 🔨
This one’s a proper loft conversion — all hand-cut roof, no shortcuts, just skilled graft. We’re currently installing the full structure: steels going in, new floor system formed, and pushing on with the roof including the flat tops.
Over 60 steel beams going into the top floor alone on this project… gives you an idea of the size of this space 👀
Big structure, tight tolerances, and everything tying together exactly as it should. This is where experience matters. Big shout out to @w.f.fosters_steels for their precision!
More to come as this monster takes shape. 🔨📐

Hand cut roof just pitched 🔨
Big focus on this one was creating those vaulted ceilings, all set out to maximise height and keep the lines clean right through the space 👌 makes a massive difference once it’s opened up.
Multiple valleys cut in and running true, all formed sharp and tying in perfectly with the existing. Steels in place doing the work behind the scenes, taking the loads so we can achieve the open feel without compromise.
Roof pitched for @lewisloweconstruction
Proper graft. 🔨📐

Most people think roofs like this come pre-made… they don’t.
Hand cut hipped roof framed and completed in a single day. 🔨
Every rafter measured, cut and pitched on site, only geometry and skill used.
A lot of setting out, a lot of cuts… but when it all comes together like this it’s worth it 🔨📐

Every project has a story behind it.
We were recently asked to step in and take over this job in West London after the previous contractor was unfortunately unable to complete the works. Our priority was making the structure safe, secure and moving the project forward for the homeowners.
During our assessment we discovered the flat roof build-up had failed, so the best course of action was to strip it back and rebuild it properly.
From new structural timberwork, to fresh decking and a fully renewed waterproofing system, this roof is now built to perform for the long term. Big thanks to @bumblebeeroofing for another perfect job!
Sometimes the most important part of construction isn’t just building… it’s putting things right and giving clients confidence in their home again.
Good progress made and looking forward to pushing this project forward. 👷♂️🏗️🔨📐

Low level roof structure taking shape on this renovation for @lewisloweconstruction 🔨
Lean to roof installed along the elevation with a counter-levered porch detail formed over the front door to create a clean looking canopy.
Careful setting out here to keep the pitch consistent and tie everything neatly back into the existing property. 🔨📐

Another one wrapped up ✔️
Recently completed this beautiful @wren kitchen install for our lovely family down in Lyme Regis 🌊
Clean handleless cabinetry, crisp quartz worktops, and a bold navy island with feature panelling to bring it all together. The large sliders and rooflight absolutely flood the space with natural light – proper transformation from start to finish.
We love creating kitchens that aren’t just showpieces but practical, hard-wearing family spaces built to last.
If you’re planning a renovation or kitchen upgrade this year, get in touch – we’re now booking projects into 2026/27.

Merry Christmas from all of us at Tecta Build 🎄
As the year comes to a close, we’re looking back on some standout projects — including this one, completed a few years ago and entered into Large Project of the Year.
A huge amount of skill, planning and teamwork went into delivering it, and it still represents everything we stand for: quality craftsmanship, attention to detail and pride in our work.
Thank you to all our clients, suppliers and partners for the continued support throughout the year.
Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a successful New Year.

We designed and built a traditional green oak frame to create a proper sheltered entrance outside the back door — all tied beautifully into the client’s existing log store.
Every joint is hand-cut, pegged, and built the way it’s been done for centuries. No metal brackets, no shortcuts… just solid oak joinery doing what it does best. The roof structure is now ready for its covering, and once the oak weathers down to that silvery tone, it’ll look like it’s always been part of the garden.
The brief was simple:
Make the space practical, make it last, and make it look like it belongs.
Mission accomplished.
We love projects like this — natural materials, traditional methods, and a result that blends straight into its surroundings.
If you want something bespoke, handcrafted, and built properly, this is what we do. 📐🔨

Had a great chat with @robinclevett on @fixradiouk Carpentry Show this week — talking all things tax returns, bookkeeping, and getting your finances straight as a tradesperson.
Too many of us leave it last minute — so we broke down how to stay on top of it and keep more of what you earn.

✨ Fresh commercial Fit-Out ✨
We’ve recently finished transforming this workspace with acoustic panelling and silent booths by @bureau.global – creating the perfect balance of style, comfort, and functionality.
The sleek timber slat walls not only elevate the design but also cut down on noise, while the booths offer private spaces for focus and calls. A modern office that works as hard as the people in it 💼⚡️
What do you think of the new setup? 👀👇

📣 We’re backing the call for a licensed building trade! 🛠️
The Federation of Master Builders is fighting in Parliament for what the industry desperately needs — mandatory licensing for UK builders. It’s time to raise standards, protect homeowners, and give reputable tradespeople the recognition they deserve.
We stand proudly with the FMB in their campaign to ensure quality, trust, and accountability across the building sector. 💪
Let’s build a future where professionalism isn’t optional — it’s the standard. 👷♂️👷♀️ Click the link below to find out more. 🔨📐
