Business Details
Expert Heritage Restoration & Sustainable Building Services
Established as a specialist in both heritage restoration and modern eco-building practices, Building Maintenance & Restoration has served Shropshire, Cheshire, Mid Wales and the West Midlands for over two decades. Our team combines traditional craftsmanship with sustainable methodologies to deliver projects ranging from period building restoration to energy-efficient new constructions. We specialise in re-creating detailed architectural elements using natural materials while implementing advanced structural solutions to maximise internal spaces. Our expertise extends to non-abrasive paint removal techniques and the creation of custom steelwork frameworks. Demonstrating deep knowledge of historical building conservation, we employ traditional lime-based coatings and reclaimed materials to preserve architectural authenticity.The company maintains technical proficiency in thermal performance optimisation through engineered timber frames, high-performance insulation and triple-glazed fenestration systems. Each project demonstrates our commitment to environmental responsibility without compromising structural integrity or aesthetic value. Our track record includes Grade 2* listed properties and rural dwellings requiring complex remedial work to address moisture-related degradation. The business serves both private clients and architectural professionals seeking expert execution of challenging construction projects that balance heritage conservation with modern sustainability standards.

Services
Period Restoration
Specialises in restoring historical buildings while maintaining architectural integrity. Our team carefully removes modern plasticised coatings using non-abrasive techniques and replaces them with breathable lime-based finishes. We re-create detailed mouldings on joinery, stone and brickwork to recreate original period features. This service benefits property owners seeking to preserve historical value while improving structural longevity through moisture management solutions.
Eco-Building
Delivers energy-efficient building solutions using natural and reclaimed materials. We employ engineered timber frames and high-performance insulation to minimise environmental impact. Our methods include triple-glazed windows and thermal bridging reduction techniques that improve energy efficiency. This service provides clients with modern living spaces that maintain environmental responsibility while delivering contemporary comfort standards through underfloor heating and passive solar design principles.
Structural Steelwork
Designs and implements custom steel frameworks to enable modern architectural designs. We create load-bearing structures that maximise internal spaces while maintaining structural integrity. This service supports complex building projects requiring open-plan layouts or challenging site conditions. Our expertise includes site-specific solutions for difficult access locations and integration with traditional building materials for hybrid construction projects.
Lime Mortars
Applies specialist lime-based mortars and plasters for historical building conservation. These breathable materials allow moisture migration while maintaining structural cohesion. This service addresses moisture-related damage in heritage properties by replacing impermeable modern coatings. We use traditional techniques to restore original masonry performance characteristics while ensuring compatibility with historical construction methods.
Paint Removal
Removes modern plasticised masonry paints using non-abrasive chemical stripping techniques. This service eliminates moisture-trapping coatings that cause structural degradation. We restore breathability to building exteriors while preserving delicate architectural details. The process includes surface preparation for traditional lime-based finishes that maintain historical authenticity while improving long-term preservation.
