Earthouse Building Conservation Ltd is a specialist building conservation contractor based in East Devon. Established in 2002, the practice undertakes conservation, restoration and repair of traditional buildings using historic construction methods alongside carefully selected contemporary techniques where appropriate.
Cob conservation
Earthouse specialises in the preservation and restoration of cob buildings, including cottages, houses, barns and other traditional structures. Services include cob repair, rebuilding and new cob construction using compatible earth-based materials.
Structural repairs
The company undertakes structural repairs to cob, stone and timber buildings and works with established subcontractors where additional specialist disciplines are required.
Lime work and breathable construction
Services include lime rendering, lime plastering, lime mortar pointing and limecrete floors. These breathable materials are particularly suited to historic masonry and cob construction where modern impermeable systems can contribute to moisture problems.
Listed and historic buildings
Earthouse works on domestic properties, listed buildings, churches and larger conservation projects. The company seeks to retain historic fabric and replace materials like-for-like wherever possible.
Complete project delivery
In addition to specialist repairs, Earthouse provides building contracting and project-management services, including substantial restoration projects and barn conversions.
