Builders · Eastleigh

Looking for builders in Eastleigh you can rely on? CAWS Carpentry & Building has covered Eastleigh and the surrounding villages since 2002. We take on new kitchens and bathrooms, full extensions, loft conversions and carpentry projects.

Eastleigh has a real mix of homes, from period cottages and 1930s semis to the new-build estates around the town centre and Fair Oak, so no two jobs are quite the same. We get to know your property and your budget before recommending a plan, so you only pay for the work your home actually needs. Call 023 8047 1052 for a free, no-obligation quote.

Building and carpentry work in Eastleigh

Whatever stage your project is at, our Eastleigh team can help with:

  • Carpentry
  • Kitchens
  • Bathrooms
  • Extensions
  • Loft conversions
  • Roofing

That covers Chandler’s Ford as well as Eastleigh itself, for homes and businesses alike. Our own carpentry team builds each project to spec, from refreshing a single room to refurbishing a whole property, and we can pick a project up at whatever stage it has reached.

Carpenters and kitchen fitters

Our carpenters handle bespoke staircases, fitted wardrobes, new summer houses and full room re-plasters. Kitchens can be off-the-shelf or completely bespoke, and we cover the cabinetry along with the electrical, gas and plumbing work, keeping disruption to a minimum.

Adding space, roofing and bathrooms

An extension or loft conversion can add a bedroom, a home office or an open-plan kitchen-diner, built in keeping with your existing Eastleigh property. We also fit new pitched roofs, carry out re-roofs and repairs, and design and install bathrooms and en-suites.

For homeowners and the trade

We work for private homeowners, and for builders and contractors who bring us in for carpentry, kitchens and extensions on their own projects. Much of our Eastleigh work comes from recommendations and returning clients. The company was founded by Ryan Caws in 2002, and the team has more than 30 years’ combined experience. We are accredited by Checkatrade, FENSA, the FMB and the FSB, and the price we quote is fixed upfront, with no hidden extras once work begins.

Local to you

Building work across Eastleigh and nearby

Eastleigh grew up around the railway, so streets near the town centre are lined with Victorian terraces, while newer estates spread out around them. Planning here is through Eastleigh Borough Council. Terraces often need side-return extensions, loft rooms and updated kitchens and bathrooms, while newer homes are usually adapted as families grow. Our office in West End is in the same borough, so Eastleigh is close to home for us.

The home
Hiltingbury, in Chandler's Ford, has many large detached family houses with integral garages and good-sized gardens.
What's usually wanted
Families commonly want extra living space, often by converting the garage or extending to the rear.
How we'd approach it
We check foundations, insulation and building control requirements for a garage conversion, or design a rear extension in matching brick and roof tiles. Planning questions go to Eastleigh Borough Council, and we confirm early whether an application is needed.
The result
More usable living space in a house the family already likes.

Caws Carpentry have done an excellent job at opening up our wall and reinforcing it with steel. Ryan and his team were professional – on time, no problems.
GGary LangdownCustomer review
Caws Carpentry undertook a large extension with new roof, attic conversion and total refurbishment of the whole house over a period of 11 months. Caws Carpentry were well-organised with great attention to detail and kept us informed and consulted on changes to scope and cost. The quality of workmanship and finish was exceptional and we are so pleased with the result.
SSophie LiddellExtension, loft conversion & refurbishment
I thought this was a fairly straightforward job but as it progressed I realised there was more to it than I expected. In the end 3 different teams worked on it and I appreciated them each being experts in their own particular trade, rather than using someone who was more of a general carpenter/Builders. Each team was very efficient and did a superb job. Ryan was always available if needed and I was consulted on each stage of the project, and he took a lot of care to ensure the final design would stand the test of time. Highly recommend

Our bathroom looks amazing after the renovation, thanks to the CAWS Carpentry team! They handled the bathroom installation smoothly from start to finish and paid attention to every little detail. They were punctual, courteous, and we couldn’t be happier with the final result.

We decided to convert our attic into a usable space, and the CAWS Carpentry team did an incredible job with the loft conversion! The transformation is amazing, and they made sure everything was exactly how we envisioned. It’s now our favorite room in the house. Truly exceeded our expectations.
