The twin villages grew up around their fishing harbours, and many homes near the shore are older cottages and terraces, with ex-council homes and newer houses further back from the sea. Work here tends to be a mix. Older harbour-side homes often need renovation: small rooms opened up, joinery replaced and floors levelled. Family homes frequently need more space, so garage conversions, loft conversions and extensions are common. Kitchens, media walls and new flooring round off the list. Gordon Rollo and Craig Pucko, our two partners, quote and do the work themselves, bringing over 50 years of combined experience. You get a free quote, no deposit and weekly payment for work completed. ### Homes we work on in Cockenzie and Port Seton Fisher cottages and terracesOlder homes near the harbours with small rooms and irregular walls.

Things to know ## Common issues with Cockenzie and Port Seton homes ### Salt wind off the Forth Homes right by the sea face salty air and driving rain. External doors and timber need suitable materials and finishes to last. ### Damp in older cottages Older homes near the shore can have damp walls and timber floors, which must be checked before new joinery or flooring goes in. ### Small, separate rooms Fisher cottages were built with small rooms. Opening them up, often with a steel beam, makes a huge difference. ### Tight streets and parking Narrow streets near the harbours mean deliveries and skips need planning. We keep disruption to neighbours to a minimum.

There's no deposit to pay, and you pay weekly as the work progresses, so you only ever pay for work that's been done.

If you have an urgent problem, call us and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help and how soon. Do I need a building warrant for my project in Cockenzie and Port Seton?Many conversions, extensions and structural changes need a building warrant from East Lothian Council, and some need planning permission. Getting the warrant is the client's responsibility, but we'll tell you early on if we think your project needs one and work to the approved drawings once you have it.

We check the existing floor first, deal with any problems and then lay wooden floors or LVT on a level, sound base. ### Nearby areas we cover TranentPrestonpansWallyfordLongniddry We cover all of East Lothian.
