Why Penshaw is different from the rest of Washington

Penshaw is a suburban pocket inside Washington, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Washington job. We plan around back-garden patios with level changes and lawn-to-paving transitions. That's why this page exists separately to ourWashington page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.

Serving Penshaw and Tyne and Wear

Tyne and Wear sits at the heart of the North East, with excellent transport links and a diverse housing stock. Whether you live in a city centre apartment block or a suburban semi, we bring local knowledge and trusted workmanship to every project across the county.

Washington is a planned new town built in the 1960s and 1970s, with distinct numbered villages each containing their own housing estates, shops, and green spaces. Properties are predominantly modern semi-detached and detached houses with good-sized gardens.
