Why Barmston is different from the rest of Washington

Barmston is a suburban pocket inside Washington, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Washington job. We plan around 1960s-90s family homes, wider drives and mature front gardens. That's why this page exists separately to ourWashington page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
