Dan Cook Carpentry and Building Limited

Our projects - building excellence

Cottage restoration and conversion

Project: Conversion
Date: August 2023
Client: Bovey Tracey Client

Our clients wanted us to create a forever home in a beautiful moorland town in South Devon, this is what they said about the finished article.

“When we started to think about modernising our recently purchased cottage first built in the late 1800s it was clear we would need a little help from a building expert.

Having asked around locally, we were told to contact Dan Cook as he came highly recommended.

From the first time we met Dan and his colleague George, it was reassuring how professional and knowledgeable they were. This put us instantly at ease and although we met other builders and had other quotes we knew that Dan and his team were the construction firm for us.

As the project started it was clear that Dan was able to work closely with our budget and make excellent suggestions for how we could evolve the project, to make the most of the investment in our new home.

The workmanship has exceeded our expectations and the quality of what has been delivered really has created our forever home and more than met our original vision and restored a beautiful property.

Our family are so pleased with the output, we would not hesitate in recommending Dan and his team. His genuine and caring approach to our project is rare these days.”

We first knew of Dan’s work through his local reputation and following his previous projects on Facebook. We started a conversation with Dan about his company building a holiday lodge for us at Southview Lodges.

Dan's ongoing communication of the progress he was making was second to none and particularly when on site I valued our catch-ups. Indeed, I have forged a friendship with Dan which I fully value.
