What we do here

Building and renovation in Oban.

Oban sits on the coast, where salt air and wind-driven rain find every weak detail, so weathering, fixings and drainage get specified for the exposure rather than for a sheltered inland site. In practice most of what we are asked for in Oban is renovation, with the rest of what we do available alongside it.

Questions

Working in Oban.

What building work do you do in Oban?

Across Oban (PA34) the work is mostly renovation, extensions and refurbishment of letting property. Oban sits on the coast, where salt air and wind-driven rain find every weak detail, so weathering, fixings and drainage get specified for the exposure rather than for a sheltered inland site. Every job starts with a proper look at the building rather than a price guessed over the phone.

Do you charge extra to work in Oban?

No. Travel is included in the price of the work. Oban is roughly 87 miles from Inverness, and coverage across that distance is stated up front rather than added later. For work of real size we plan the site properly rather than treating it as a day trip.

Have you worked in Oban before?

Yes. Oban is at the southern end of the patch and takes a substantial project to justify the run, which is exactly the kind of work we are set up for. We are happy to talk through the kind of work we have done near bay when you get in touch.

Does the property in Oban affect how the job is done?

Very much so. Coastal property in Oban takes salt and wind-driven rain constantly, so fixings, flashings, render and drainage all have to be specified for it. The failures we get called to on the coast are almost always the same thing: a detail that would have been fine two miles inland.

Can you take on a large or long-running project in Oban?

Yes, and that is the work the firm is built around. We are currently delivering a multi-year Highland shooting lodge renovation running through to 2029, so a substantial renovation or new build in Oban is well within what we are set up to hold.

How quickly can you quote a job in Oban?

Usually within a week or two of getting in touch, depending on the size of the job and where Oban sits in the current programme. Quotes are free, carry no obligation, and you get the price in writing before any work starts.
