Thetford sits at the heart of Breckland in south-west Norfolk, around 20 miles from our Wymondham base - an easy 25-minute run along the A11. We serve the whole IP24 postcode area including Thetford itself, Brandon (just over the Suffolk border), Mundford, Northwold, and the scattered Breckland settlements.
Thetford is a town with extraordinary history - the great Castle Hill motte, the ruins of the Cluniac Priory of Our Lady, and the birthplace of Thomas Paine. The town also has a significant proportion of post-war social housing alongside period properties in the town centre, and more recent private housing developments on the town's edges.
The proximity to Thetford Forest - one of England's largest lowland forests - gives the area a distinctive character, and many properties in the Thetford area are in rural or semi-rural settings where outdoor spaces, garden buildings, decking, and patios are priorities alongside the house itself.
We carry out extensions, loft conversions, renovations, bathroom refits, and the full range of construction trades throughout Breckland. In Thetford itself, we work on town centre properties as well as the residential estates and newer developments. We also work in the Brandon area, where the flint building tradition gives properties a distinctive Suffolk/Norfolk Breckland character.
