Bats in the Attic

Thursday, May 8th, 2025

We went out to this site in the beautiful village of Fontmell back in February to meet with the client and discuss repair works to the detached stables barn accommodation, that had sadly suffered some severe fire damage in December. Thankfully no-one was injured, but the northern end of the building suffered damage, to the roof, Timber A Frames and timber floor. 

Repair works started on site at the beginning of April, and I popped back out to meet the Ecologist, Client and Builder last week to see progress. Fascinating talking to the ecologist about the different bats in the area, and interesting to learn about all the procedures we had to have in place, and mitigation measures in line with requirements from Annex D of the licensing process, following a non-licence method statement and under supervision of a suitably qualified ecologist. Let’s hope that all the efforts we are making in the repair works will encourage the bats to return once works are complete.

Another happy client—turning visions into reality.

Small jobs count too!

Working with Blandford Town Council and the Conservation Officer, we were pleased to have completed the project at the Town Hall Corn Exchange Building to replace a tired, broken and damaged roof lantern, with a new bespoke, double glazed Heritage Style roof light. Even small projects still need time and effort to get them over the line and complete to plan, time and budget. Its all in the detail.
