Builders in Chippenham
Chippenham sits at the southern edge of the Cotswolds, with a medieval core, Victorian growth from its railway and engineering years, and modern estates spreading out into the surrounding countryside. Many of our recent projects have been in the villages around the town - Sutton Benger, Corsham, and Kington Langley - working on extensions, new studios, and contemporary additions to period homes.
Blok Building is based around seventeen miles from Chippenham, and we've been working across Wiltshire and Somerset since 2016. We know Wiltshire Council's planning processes for listed buildings, conservation areas, and full new builds.

What we build in Chippenham

Single-storey, two-storey, side returns, and wraparounds. We design and build extensions that work with your existing property and maximise your living space.
Renovations and refurbishments
Full house renovations, kitchen and bathroom refurbishments, and heritage restoration. We bring tired properties back to life while preserving their character.
Conversions
Loft, garage, and barn conversions. We transform underused spaces into functional, high-quality living areas tailored to your needs.
New build homes
Bespoke new build homes from the ground up. We work with you and your architect to deliver one-off homes built to the highest standard.
Recent projects around Chippenham
Station Road, CorshamArtist StudioA purpose-built artist studio added to an old stone terrace in Corsham, providing the workspace the original property couldn't accommodate. Working sympathetically alongside existing stonework was central to the build.
Manor Farm, Sutton BengerExtensionA high-spec two-storey side extension and single-storey rear extension, alongside large-scale internal alterations. The new layout was designed around the connection between the house and its garden, opening up the spatial experience throughout.
Arminger House, Kington LangleyExtensionThe existing conservatory was replaced with a contemporary orangery in cedar cladding and render, with a central lantern bringing daylight deep into the plan. Internal walls between the kitchen and living room came down to create a single open-plan space.
Building in Chippenham
Listed buildings and conservation
A high proportion of work in this area involves listed buildings, conservation areas, or both - particularly in the surrounding villages. We've worked across Wiltshire on heritage projects and are familiar with the additional planning steps: listed-building consent, conservation officer input, and matching materials and detailing to the existing fabric. We factor those steps into the project programme from the start rather than treating them as an afterthought.
Wiltshire Council planning
Chippenham falls under Wiltshire Council, the same authority covering Bradford-on-Avon, Trowbridge, and most of our regular service area. We're familiar with their processes for everything from straightforward householder extensions through to listed-building applications.
Cotswold stone and traditional materials
Many of the surrounding villages are built in Cotswold stone with slate or stone-tile roofs. Whether you're matching existing work on a period property (as at Station Road) or introducing a contemporary contrast that still sits well alongside it (as at Arminger House), getting the stone, mortar, cladding, and roofing details right is essential.
Areas we serve
Alongside Chippenham itself, we work across the surrounding Wiltshire villages, including Sutton Benger, Corsham, Kington Langley, Lacock, Castle Combe, Biddestone, Yatton Keynell, and Christian Malford.
