New Builds and Self Builds in Houston
Houston is a village in Renfrewshire, a few miles north-west of Johnstone.
Self builders usually want one company to take the build on from the foundations up. One of our closest projects to Houston is the glamping pods and communal area in Near Glasgow, about 12 miles away. We also work in Bridge of Weir, Linwood and Johnstone, close to Houston.
Houston is about 18 miles from our Kilmarnock office as the crow flies. Planning and building warrant applications for Houston go to Renfrewshire Council, and we deal with them for you.

We cannot recommend Cutwood Joinery enough. We have just completed our project which involved removing a wall between our kitchen and dining room, removing doors through to our conservatory, floors brought to same height making it a large open plan space.Susan B.Wall removal and open plan · Google review
The works were well coordinated and carried out quickly, efficiently and to a high standard by talented tradesmen, who had an eye for detail. Communication was excellent and we appreciated Kris keeping us up to date throughout.Suzanne S.Repairs, three trades · Google review
Although the disruption surrounding building works is never pleasant, it has been a pleasure working with Oscar and Kris at Cutwood. ... the end result after 6 months work, certainly so far as the dormer is concerned, is better then we were hoping for.Martin H.Loft and garage conversion · Google review
