Specialist Building & Landscaping in Lasswade

Yes. All of our building and landscaping work for Lasswade homeowners comes with a workmanship guarantee, whether that is a sympathetic extension on a conservation area stone house above the Esk or terraced retaining and steps cut into a steep Kevock garden. We build to the Scottish Building Standards throughout, and we close every job with a proper walkthrough on site before handover, so you can stand with us and check the masonry, levels and finishes and flag anything that is not right before we leave.

They do. We fit materials from trusted suppliers so the manufacturer warranties protect the finished work, which on a Lasswade property might cover the structural steel and reinforced concrete in an extension on a sloping plot, the slate and tile chosen to suit an older roof, and the natural stone and frost-resistant brick used in repairs near the river. In the garden the same holds for the Indian sandstone, treated timber and the geotextile membranes and drainage we install on wooded banks, and we pass on every record so the cover stays in place.

We cover EH18, including Kevock, Wadingburn, Polton and Broomieknowe. We also cover nearby Midlothian communities including Dalkeith, Rosewell and Eskbank.

The housing mix includes older stone houses above the river, cottages, properties with long wooded gardens and homes on the edges of Bonnyrigg, so each job has to suit its street, slope and setting.

Yes. The Lasswade and Kevock Conservation Area is a designated area with its own Character Appraisal under Midlothian Council, and Broomieknowe is a recognised conservation area too, so external alterations and extensions here often need more careful planning checks than in non-designated streets.

It is a straightforward route from Edinburgh via the city bypass and main roads towards Bonnyrigg, which helps with surveys, quoting and organised project delivery.

Yes. Steep banks, mature trees, shade, older retaining walls and long-term wear from family use all affect how groundwork, drainage and new finishes are designed and built here. Where drainage is persistent we install perforated land drainage pipes wrapped in geotextile membranes channelled into deep gravel soakaways.

Yes. We also work in nearby Midlothian towns and villages including Rosewell and Eskbank, all linked by the same routes through this part of the Esk valley.
