Kilbury Construction

We are delighted to announce the launch of Kilbury Conservation, a new company set up to provide specialist services for property restoration, conservation and preservation. Kilbury Construction, founded by the current Managing Director, Colin Westbury, in 2000, provides building and construction services to Gloucestershire and the surrounding counties. These services include damp-proofing, below-ground waterproofing to existing and new-build properties, basement conversions, elimination of wood-boring insects and fungal decay, condensation control and air management, traditional and resin-based timber repairs, concrete condition analysis and repair, flood remediation and resilience, faade repairs and coatings.

The problem was caused over a long period. A very large tree had grown 'out of its space'. The tree trunk and its roots created an uneven footpath, damaged the road kerb and the retaining wall at the front of the school. In the first instance Kilbury suggested that 'reinforcing bolsters' could be built into our garden to prevent the wall from falling over any more. GCC/Glos Highways agreed to remove the tree. In the event it was almost two years later that the tree was removed, by which time the wall had further deteriorated and Kilbury suggested renewal would be the only solution.
