Common questions

Frequently asked questions.

Straight answers about who we are, what we do, and how a job with Pollendine works. Can't find what you're after? Call us on 01223 398686.

Are Pollendine a family-run business?

Yes. Pollendine has been building in and around Cambridge since 1986, when Chris Pollendine founded Pollendine Builders. Today the business is run by Aron Pollendine as the third generation, with his son Dylan working alongside him.

Do you work on period or listed buildings?

Yes. Period and listed building renovation is one of our specialisms, alongside general home renovations, extensions and loft conversions. We understand the extra care that older and heritage buildings need, and we've completed listed building renovations for homes across Cambridge and the surrounding area.

Do you use subcontractors?

No. All work is carried out by our own team, so you deal with the same familiar faces from your first conversation to the final coat of paint, rather than a rotating cast of subcontractors.

Do you offer free quotes?

Yes. Every job starts with a visit and a free, no-obligation quote, followed by a straightforward, detailed itemised quote within days, so you know exactly what you're paying for before any work begins.

What services does Pollendine offer?

Three main areas: extensions and loft conversions; home renovations and alterations, including full house renovations, structural alterations and period property refurbishments; and general home maintenance and repairs for the smaller, ongoing jobs.

What areas do you cover?

We're based around Cambridge, and we cover parts of Cambridgeshire and Suffolk. We're known to work as far afield as Newmarket and Bury St Edmunds.

What are your opening hours and how do I get in touch?

We're available Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and Saturday 10am to 2pm, closed Sunday. Call 01223 398686 or email info@pollendine.com to arrange a free quote.
