Listed Building Repairs

Listed and historic buildings require a careful and informed approach.

Repairs to these properties should respect the building’s age, materials, construction methods and architectural significance.

The Period Property Workshop provides sensitive repair and maintenance works for listed buildings, conservation properties and historic homes throughout Dundee, Angus, Perthshire, Fife and the wider Tayside region.

We understand that listed buildings often require repair rather than replacement.

Original materials, traditional detailing and historic fabric should be retained wherever possible.

Our approach is based on practical understanding, careful workmanship and respect for the building’s character.

Where specialist advice, permissions or professional input are required, we can work alongside architects, surveyors and other consultants.

Poor repairs can damage the long-term performance and value of older buildings.
