PROVIDING QUALITY BUILDING SERVICES

Our services range from conversions, new builds and extensions, to roofing, groundworks and landscape gardening. We offer a full project management service, liaising with Building Control from initial inspection, through to completion and final sign off.

CONVERSIONS & RENOVATIONS

We specialise in the conversion and renovation of period and Listed buildings, including derelict cottages, period barns and traditional farmhouses.

We understand the nature of period buildings and have a sympathetic approach to restoration and conversion using natural, locally sourced materials, including Delabole Rag slate and flagstones, Cornish granite and lime mortar. We work with our clients to retain period features, whilst providing a modern and contemporary finish where required, completed to current Building Regulations standards.

NEW BUILDS

Our new build methods include traditional masonry and timber frame construction. We have strong connections with local, reputable contractors ensuring all aspects of the project, from initial groundworks, electrics and plumbing are completed to the highest standard. We work with architects to ensure your new build is completed in accordance with the plans and signed off to current Building Regulations standards.

EXTENSIONS

We work for both domestic and non-domestic clients, providing additional space for a variety of purposes, from restaurant and farm shop extensions, to domestic living accommodation. Depending on your requirements, we complete works to shell and core ready for fit out, or through our local connections with reputable suppliers and contractors, we can source and install a range of quality kitchens and bathrooms. Our work is completed to current Building Regulations standards.

ROOFING

Our roofing work ranges from new roofs, to minor and larger repairs. We work with a variety of coverings including modern slate, Cornish Rag slate and tiles, and different roof structures, including pitched, hipped and flat roofs.

Our work includes constructing and fitting timber A-frames to support a new pitched roof, stripping and replacing existing roof coverings, including new lead valleys and minor removal, replacement and renewal works.

GROUNDWORKS & LANDSCAPE GARDENING

We provide a full groundworks and landscape gardening service. Our works include ground excavation for new builds and extensions, new paved driveways, stone walling, patios and general landscaping.

Our recent works have included removing and replacing existing patios and boundary walls with new, reusing existing materials where possible, ground excavation works for restaurant and farm shop extensions, and a new granite cobbled paved driveway.

Thomas Gay has done a lot of work for me. If you need a builder to give you a very good outcome to your dreams, Tom is the man to call. Everything he tackles, he gives it 100%. He will always find a way to make it happen for you. The end result is a very professional and satisfactory job. He is also the nicest, kindest man you could meet. He is my guardian angel.

Mrs H, Launceston

I would like to say thank you for doing a quality job in re-roofing my house with the original Delabole slate. You were timely, the estimate was reasonable, and the work was completed quickly. The quality of workmanship has transformed the look of the house and gets complimented almost daily. I have recommended you several times and will continue to do so knowing you will give a professional service.

Mr P, Camelford

After a recommendation from a friend and seeing TG Building Contractors work on social media, I knew Tom and his team were the right choice for my Grade II Listed cottage renovation. The knowledge and skill they have is second to none! It’s quite clear they take pride in their work and want the best outcome for you. I would highly recommend anyone looking to take on a building project, small or large, to speak with TG Building Contractors.

Mr S, Callington

Tom has been our general builder for around 4 years. He has carried out roofing repairs, fitted a kitchen and bathroom and re-slated a gable end, amongst other works. Tom is reliable, hardworking and trustworthy, nothing is too much trouble. We would not hesitate to recommend him; he has a real eye for detail.

Mr and Mrs H, Bude

Tom has done a few jobs for us, including building our new patio. His workmanship is excellent, and you can always guarantee the property is left as he found it. Nothing is too much trouble and we would thoroughly recommend him.

Mr and Mrs P, Bude

Tom and his team built my beautiful barn conversion last year. Having dealt with many builders over the years I was prepared for delays, price hikes etc., but this wasn’t the case with Tom. He kept us up to date constantly and was always available for a chat at the end of the day. The stonework and workmanship in general was second to none. He was flexible and accommodating when I had the odd brainwave and changed the designs and we were in within 5 months. First class!
