Mastering the Unique Sussex Design
Properties across Rye and East Sussex face unique weather challenges rolling in from the coast. To combat this, we use incredibly durable timber and premium weather sealing paints to keep the rain firmly out.
We also completely understand the distinct Sussex cowl design. Because these structures feature unique flat side panels, we use specialised oast house construction methods to build strong replacement cowls that honour your local architectural history perfectly.
