Why Ightham Properties Are Different
Oast house conversions around Hadlow and Plaxtol have curved walls and unique structural challenges we're experienced in working with
Access & logistics: Many properties in rural villages are accessed via single-track lanes. We always conduct a site visit before quoting to ensure we plan access and deliveries correctly.
Seasonal tip: The Weald area around Hadlow and Paddock Wood is low-lying and can be prone to winter flooding. We recommend raising the base of any garden room installation and using flood-resistant materials where appropriate.
