Craghead is a suburban pocket inside Stanley, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Stanley job. We plan around 1960s-90s family homes, wider drives and mature front gardens. That's why this page exists separately to ourStanley page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
The most common property type in suburban areas, ideal for driveway extensions, patio installations, and roof maintenance.
Larger properties with generous gardens and double driveways that allow for more ambitious design and material choices.
Single-storey properties where roof access is easier and garden spaces often wrap around the building.
Properties from this era often need driveway resurfacing, patio additions, and roofline upgrades to modernise their appearance.
Every area has its own requirements. Here's what we consider when working in Craghead.
