Benjamin Henry is a building firm with a big difference. They offer a Bespoke building, joinery and electrics service for new buildings, renovations, conversions and extensions from the ground up. They can manage your project from design to installation in Taunton and the surrounding areas.

They offer a free consultation and estimate on all projects for you and are happy to work alongside architects and interior designers to ensure that there is continuity and thought to even the smallest details.  Benjamin & his team have over 50 years of experience in construction having worked with almost all building methods.  They are well placed to offer industry-standard advice & recommendations, with the skills & knowledge to undertake an entire house (or 10!). They pride themselves on their reliable in-house team made up of a range of trades, without the need to use subcontractors except trusted plumbers (for gas work). This ensures the highest standards & complete control that you can rely on.

Benjamin Henry have a strong interest in sustainability & where possible, will always do their best to use responsibly sourced materials that are kind to the environment (as well as your pocket).  They always do their utmost to make sure buildings are as insulated & economical as possible to reduce future running costs and reduce carbon footprint. They can even go as far as to produce a ‘Passive House', which will give you up to 90% energy savings compared to the 75% that the modern new builds achieve. This type of building can almost be heated by a couple of candles!

They work with traditional and modern construction techniques using only the best quality materials, tailored to the client's brief, to achieve the look you desire whilst also ensuring you can enjoy it far into the future. For example, they often use Accoya, which is a wood that has been developed into an ultra-durable & stable building material. It comes with a 50-year guarantee against any rotting or fungi so is particularly useful in both timber buildings & joinery.
