Why Ouseburn Valley is different from the rest of Newcastle upon Tyne

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