Construction & renovation in Farnham Common

Your local builder in Farnham Common

Farnham Common sits a short drive from our Harefield base, just across the M40 and M25 to the north-west, so we are on site quickly and back again without losing a day to travel. It is a village of large detached homes on generous, wooded plots, set against Burnham Beeches and held within the Green Belt. We work on that kind of house every week: full renovations of Edwardian and interwar properties, extensions that suit a leafy plot, and garden landscaping that respects the mature trees around it. The work is unhurried and properly supervised, with one point of contact from first survey to handover.

Most projects here turn on the setting as much as the building. We handle the planning side with Buckinghamshire Council, including Green Belt limits, the constraints of building near the Burnham Beeches SAC, and Tree Preservation Orders on established gardens. Foundations and drainage are designed around root protection and the chalk and clay-with-flints ground beneath, not bolted on as an afterthought. Whether it is a measured renovation, a single- or double-storey extension, or a new garden, we plan it for a wooded South Bucks plot from the outset.

Local knowledge

Building in Farnham Common

We tailor every project to the homes, ground and planning context of Farnham Common — here's what that means in practice.

The homes we work on here

  • Large detached houses on generous, often wooded plots, the defining stock of this affluent South Bucks village beside Burnham Beeches.
  • A mix of substantial Edwardian and interwar properties alongside later modern detached homes, rather than terraces or a listed core.
  • Cavity brickwork with clay-tile roofs, set in mature gardens that frequently carry their own established trees.
  • A village-centre character around the Farnham Common parade and Farnham Royal, with proximity to ancient woodland shaping how each plot can be built on.

What Farnham Common homeowners ask us to solve

  • Extensions, basements and leisure additions to large detached homes, designed to use a generous plot without crowding the trees on it.
  • Foundation and drainage design on wooded plots near the Burnham Beeches SAC, where root protection governs how and where you build.
  • Garden landscaping that works around mature trees and likely Tree Preservation Orders, rather than fighting them.
  • Green Belt planning constraints on extensions and replacement dwellings, and the limescale that comes with very hard chalk-fed water.
Why Hangard

Why Farnham Common homeowners choose us

What sets us apart in Farnham Common isn't a sales pitch — it's knowing the homes, the ground and the planning here, and building accordingly.

Built for wooded plots

We design foundations and drainage around tree-root protection and the constraints of building near the Burnham Beeches SAC, the issue that defines work in this village.

Green Belt planning, handled

We take extensions, basements and replacement dwellings through Buckinghamshire Council within Green Belt limits, so the scheme is shaped to pass before a spade goes in.

At home with large detached houses

Renovating and extending substantial Edwardian, interwar and modern detached homes on generous plots is our routine work, not an occasional job.

Gardens that respect the trees

Our landscaping is planned around mature trees and likely Tree Preservation Orders, with hard-water protection specified for systems fed by very hard chalk water.
