ABOUT

High Trees Carpentry & Building Ltd is a Bournemouth-based building contractor led by Tom Stevens, a skilled carpenter and joiner with over 25 years’ experience in the construction industry. We specialise in residential extensions, loft conversions and substantial renovations across Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, the New Forest and surrounding areas.

Tom remains closely involved from the initial site visit and quotation through to construction and completion. We work with a trusted network of experienced local carpenters and specialist trades, bringing together the right people for each project while giving our clients a clear point of contact throughout the build.

Our carpentry background remains at the heart of High Trees and gives us a particular focus on workmanship, detailing and the quality of the finished project. Combined with careful project management, clear pricing and a respectful approach to working in occupied homes, our aim is to make substantial building work as straightforward and well organised as possible.

ABOUT

RESIDENTIAL EXTENSIONS, LOFT CONVERSIONS & RENOVATIONS

High Trees Carpentry & Building specialises in residential extensions, loft conversions and substantial renovations across Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch and the New Forest. We combine skilled craftsmanship with clear pricing, careful project management and straightforward communication from the initial quotation through to completion.

 

From the first site visit through to completion, Tom remains closely involved in each project, coordinating trusted trades and keeping the work organised. We provide clear written quotations, communicate changes to scope or cost as the project develops, and take care to work tidily and respectfully in your home throughout the build.

Clear quotations. Careful planning. Tidy sites. Straightforward communication.

HOUSE EXTENSIONS & RENOVATIONS

Whether you are extending your home, opening up the existing layout or carrying out a substantial renovation, we can manage the construction process from the initial quotation through to completion. We work with homeowners, architects and designers to deliver carefully planned residential building projects, with particular attention to structure, detailing, cost control and the quality of the finished work.

CUSTOM CARPENTRY

Carpentry is at the heart of High Trees and remains an important part of the extensions, loft conversions and renovation projects we deliver. From structural timber work and cut roofs through to doors, flooring, fitted joinery and detailed second-fix carpentry, we bring a high standard of craftsmanship to the building work as a whole. Our carpentry-led approach helps us achieve a considered, consistent finish throughout the completed project.

OUR BUILDING SERVICES

We specialise in larger residential building projects, particularly house extensions, loft conversions, structural alterations and substantial home renovations. Our carpentry background also allows us to manage the detailed timber and finishing work that forms an important part of many of these projects.

THE HIGH TREES STANDARD

We believe a successful building project is about more than the finished result. It should be clearly planned, professionally managed and straightforward for the client from the first conversation through to handover. The High Trees Standard sets out what you can expect when you trust us with your home.

CLEAR BEFORE WE START

You receive a detailed written quotation setting out the agreed scope, allowances and exclusions, so everyone starts with the same understanding.

PLANNED PROPERLY

Before work begins, we agree the programme, key decisions, site logistics and payment structure so the project can start on a clear footing.

PERSONALLY MANAGED

Tom remains closely involved throughout the project, providing a clear point of contact and coordinating the work on site.

RESPECT FOR YOUR HOME

We take care to work tidily and considerately, particularly where clients remain living in the property during construction.

NO SURPRISE EXTRAS

Changes to the agreed scope are discussed and priced before additional work is carried out wherever reasonably possible.

ACCOUNTABLE THROUGH COMPLETION

We manage completion, snagging and handover in an organised way and remain available if something needs attention afterwards.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Choosing a builder for a major project is a big decision. We are proud that much of our work comes through recommendation and that our clients regularly comment on our workmanship, communication and the way we look after their homes.

“Excellent workmanship, friendly professional workers, great communication… Tom kept us informed during every stage of the build.”
