Stock is the village to the south of Chelmsford, straddling the A12 and the railway line into London Liverpool Street. The village is one of the most architecturally distinctive in Essex, with a long High Street of timber-frame and weatherboarded houses, the famous Stock Brook that runs through the centre, and one of the largest conservation areas in the Borough of Chelmsford. Property types range from Grade II listed cottages on the High Street to modern detached houses on the village edge and a growing number of carefully-designed infill plots.
Our Stock drylining crew covers everything from grade II listed timber-frame cottages, weatherboarded houses, modern detached family houses on the village edge, recent infill developments to modern commercial fit-outs along the local high street corridors. With Chelmsford railway station minutes from Stock, plus excellent road links via the A12, A130, and A414 corridors, our teams can respond quickly to projects across CM4. Every project we deliver meets current Building Regulations — Part B (fire safety), Part E (acoustic separation), Part L (thermal performance), and Part M (accessibility) — and we coordinate closely with Chelmsford City Council's building control team on all commercial and multi-unit residential work.
