For over 35 years Dilys Wilson Layton Construction has delivered carefully crafted building projects for private clients, architects and ecclesiastical bodies across the South West. Every project is managed from conception to completion through a long-established network of trusted craftspeople and specialist artisans, on a fixed fee agreed at the start.
Dilys ran our barn conversion from planning to handover and it never once felt out of control. The budget agreed at the start was the budget we paid at the end.
As churchwardens we had never commissioned work of this scale. DWL guided us through the faculty process and a Grade I interior without a single misstep.
The oak frame went up in days and the craftsmanship is superb. Every trade that came through the door was excellent. We would not build with anyone else.
Every project starts with a conversation, long before it starts on site.
