Who we are
About Us
A small renovation studio with deep roots in the neighbourhood, built around honest advice and work that lasts.
Our Story
Living Roots Home started with one honest repair
A leaking roof, a rushed quote and a homeowner left with more questions than answers — that is where Living Roots Home begins. Our founder could not find a renovation team that would explain the work, price it fairly and then simply do it well, so he built one.
Today we are a small, deliberately close-knit studio. Carpenters, tilers, roofers, glaziers and interiors specialists work alongside one project manager who knows your property detail by detail. We keep our schedule realistic rather than packed, because the best renovation is the one you can still hear yourself think through.
The name is a promise. Roots are what hold a home steady — and a home should be tended the same way, season after season, with work that lasts long enough to be worth sharing.
What Guides Us
Values we are happy to be measured against
Craft First
We build to be lived in and looked after, not just photographed on handover day.
Plain-Spoken Advice
Honest recommendations, written estimates and no pressure to upgrade for the sake of it.
Accountable Service
One team owns your project from the first walkthrough to the final warranty check.
Rooted Locally
We work where we live, and we plan every detail for the weather and homes around us.
How We Work With You
Care on site, clarity in writing
Renovations happen in your home, around your family, your pets and your working week. That shapes everything about how we run a job.
- Dust screens and floor protection
- Agreed daily start and finish times
- Site tidied before we leave each day
- Written scope, priced line by line
- Changes approved before they happen
- Warranty cover and care notes at handover
The People You Will Meet
Roles, not anonymous vans
You will know exactly who is responsible for what, and how to reach them.
Your Client Care Contact
Answers the phone, books your walkthrough, keeps the calendar honest and makes sure nothing you have asked for gets lost between conversations.
Your Project Manager
Surveys the property, sequences the trades, manages access to your home and updates you as the work moves through each stage.
Your Craft Team
Skilled tradespeople and trusted partners who build carefully, clean as they go and take pride in the details nobody sees but everybody lives with.

- We will not start until scope and price are clear
- We will keep the site safe and tidy

- We will fix mistakes without argument
