Kirkintilloch mixes older stone property near the canal and town centre with large post-war and modern estates out towards Hillhead, Lenzie and Waterside. That split decides the work: refurbishment, re-roofing and stone repair in the older streets, extensions and loft conversions on the estate housing where gardens are deeper.
It is the same council as Bearsden and Milngavie, so the planning and warrant route is familiar to us, and we deliver the whole build — structure, roofing, joinery, plumbing, electrical and decoration — with our own team rather than sub-letting each stage.
