Their workmanship is outstanding using only the best of materials with no skimping on quality. Their staff were a delight and nothing was too much trouble given how fussy a client we were!! The best move we made was selecting The Cartlodge Company. They made a lovely job much admired by friends who have since seen their work here".

The Cartlodge company were recommended by a local architect and after reading their testimonials we were sold! Work started late 2020 in the middle of a pandemic! James and the team were consummate professionals throughout the build. Their attention to detail was second to none, and we are now the proud owners of a beautifully finished Cartlodge. If you are looking for friendly knowledgeable professional company look no further, you will not be disappointed!

We are extremely pleased with our Cartlodge which was designed and built by the Cartlodge Company. Their attention to detail and quality of their installation is first class as is their willingness to work with the Client to deliver exactly what they are after. Even after a year we have no snags or defects which given our site condition is amazing. We would have no hesitation recommending James and his team in the future.

James has built two buildings for me over the last 5 years and both projects have turned greater than our expectations. Nothing was too much trouble. James’s attention to detail is second to none and he has an exceptional eye for design. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending James and the Cartlodge Company and would always be happy to speak with and to show my buildings to any prospective customers.

The Cartlodge Company and their team have carried out numerous projects on my barn conversion over the last few years. I have always found them to be a polite and motivated group who carry out an outstanding level of craftsmanship. Their attention to detail and level of workmanship is hard to find these days.

Our project was completed a year ago and still has the "wow" factor! We found the Cartlodge Company and their team of craftsmen to be extremely hard working conscientious, reliable and pleasant. They were always willing to please and would go that extra mile to achieve a great result. Well done!
