Tailored to St Margarets at Cliffe Homes
Inland properties around Aylesham and Whitfield are predominantly modern builds with standard construction
Access & logistics: Dover's steep topography means some properties have challenging access. We assess this during the initial survey and plan accordingly for material handling and scaffolding.
Seasonal tip: Coastal exposure in Dover means external carpentry needs to withstand salt spray and high winds. We use stainless steel fixings and recommend composite or treated hardwood over softwood for any external work.
Common Considerations for Dover Properties
- Salt air corrosion requiring marine-grade hardware and treated timber
- Chalk and flint walls requiring specialist drilling and fixings
- Exposed coastal locations requiring wind-resistant construction for garden rooms and decking
