Builders in Frome
Looking for builders in Frome? NOOR Design & Build delivers extensions, full home renovations and conversions across the town and its surrounding villages — one accountable team, itemised proposals, and a ten-year workmanship guarantee on every project.
Frome's character is built on cloth: steep historic streets like Catherine Hill and Gentle Street, Georgian townhouses from the town's prosperous weaving centuries, and rows of modest weavers' cottages. Around them sit Victorian terraces, stone farmhouses in villages like Beckington, Rode and Nunney, and newer estates on the town's edges. Each needs a different hand — and all of them get our survey-first, conservation-aware approach.
Planning & property considerations in Frome
Planning and Building Regulations in Frome are handled by Somerset Council. Frome's town centre is one of the largest conservation areas in Somerset and listed buildings are common, so external alterations often need a carefully argued application. We establish what applies to your address at feasibility stage, before design costs begin.

Homes and projects we work on around Frome
Frome's older core rewards careful, respectful work. Weavers' cottages and stone terraces on the steep streets need thoughtful structural sequencing, discreet insulation upgrades and extensions that step down the slope rather than fight it. Georgian townhouses often suit basement, lower-ground or garden-level kitchen spaces opened to the light.
The Victorian and Edwardian terraces further out are ideal for rear and side-return extensions that create the open-plan kitchen-living space most families want. In the surrounding villages — Beckington, Rode, Nunney, Buckland Dinham — stone cottages and farmhouses call for lime-friendly materials and like-for-like detailing that keeps planning officers and neighbours happy.
On the newer estates around the town's edges, projects tend to be reconfiguration: garage conversions, open-plan ground floors and full interior renovations. Whatever the house, you get honest feasibility first, an itemised proposal, and one accountable team through to handover.
Typical project costs in Frome
Frome projects generally track the regional figures in our published cost guides: as a broad guide, a straightforward single-storey extension typically starts from around £2,200 per m², with many complete rear extensions between roughly £60,000 and £120,000 depending on size and specification. Conservation-area and listed properties can sit higher where specialist materials and detailing apply. Every NOOR proposal is itemised line by line before you commit.
A considerate site, wherever you live
Building work is disruptive; we work hard to make it less so. Clean sites, considerate hours, protected floors and gardens, and one point of contact who answers the phone. You receive regular photo updates and a named site lead, so you always know who is on site and what stage the work is at. On Frome's narrow, steep streets we plan access, deliveries and neighbour liaison with particular care.
Neighbourhoods and villages we cover
The whole of Frome — the historic centre, the terraces and the newer estates — plus surrounding villages including Beckington, Rode, Nunney, Buckland Dinham and Mells, and neighbouring towns such as Shepton Mallet, Warminster and Radstock.

Local FAQs
Do I need planning permission for an extension in Frome?
Many single-storey rear extensions fall within permitted development rights, but the town's large conservation area and many listed buildings mean tighter rules — Somerset Council confirms what applies — we check this for your address at feasibility stage, before design costs begin.
How much does an extension cost in Frome?
As a broad guide, our regional cost figures put a straightforward single-storey extension at around £2,200 to £3,200 per m², with many complete rear extensions between roughly £60,000 and £120,000 depending on size and specification. Your itemised proposal after a site visit gives the real figure.
Which areas around Frome do you cover?
The whole town plus surrounding villages including Beckington, Rode, Nunney and Mells, and neighbouring towns such as Shepton Mallet, Warminster and Radstock.
How long does a typical project take?
Timescales depend on scope, consents and specification. Once designs and approvals are in place, we agree a written programme before work begins and update you throughout — we do not quote fixed durations before the design exists.
Are you insured, and is the work guaranteed?
Yes — NOOR is fully insured, and every project carries our ten-year workmanship guarantee in writing.
