Building new is one thing. Changing an existing home takes experience.
Older homes are rarely straight, square or predictable. Previous work can reveal surprises. A good alteration starts with understanding how the house works now—and making sound decisions about what changes next.
Tony Mallon is a trade-qualified carpenter with more than 30 years' experience across domestic construction, from alterations through to highly specified architectural homes.
