Point Builders - Launching our Dorset Operation

July 29, 2025

Point Builders are Bringing Heritage Building Expertise to Dorset!


As specialists in maintaining and renovating listed and heritage properties, we're excited to share some big news: we're expanding and have just launched our services in Dorset!


Over the years, we've built our reputation around St Albans and across Hertfordshire, working carefully with properties steeped in history. Our skilled team has extensive experience with traditional building techniques, including lime pointing, lime plastering, and flintwork construction—crafts that respect the integrity of heritage buildings while ensuring they're well-equipped for modern life.


The decision to expand into Dorset is a natural next step. Geoff Spinks, the Managing Director of Point Builders, has been a resident of Christchurch for many years. The area, like our home base in Hertfordshire, is rich with beautiful period buildings, from picturesque cottages to historic listed properties.

We understand that these buildings require a careful and respectful approach to preserve their unique charm and history, as well as to comply with the restrictions imposed on these properties by local and national authorities.


While heritage restoration is close to our hearts, we also offer a full range of building services for more modern homes. Whether you're looking to extend your property, convert your loft, or renovate your house to create your ideal home, we can support your project from start to finish.


Why choose us? Well, our ethos has always been centred around trust, clear communication, and quality craftsmanship. Our clients in Hertfordshire know us for our attention to detail, reliability, and personalised service. Now, homeowners in Dorset can expect the same high standards.


We're not just builders; we're problem-solvers, advisors, and, most importantly, we care deeply about the properties entrusted to our care. Every home, whether centuries old or recently built, deserves thoughtful and skilled craftsmanship. This is precisely what we bring to each project, big or small.


If you're in Bournemouth, Christchurch or the surrounding areas of Dorset or Hampshire and you're looking for a specialist team with proven expertise in listed and heritage buildings, or a trusted partner for a home extension or conversion, please don't hesitate to get in touch. We'd love to discuss how we can help you make the most of your home.


We're looking forward to meeting many new faces, embracing new challenges, and becoming a valued part of the Dorset & Hampshire communities.


Here's to the future and to preserving the past!
