We at Woodnut Construction have 25 years of expertise working as contractors for housing associations on home renovations in London and the surrounding areas.
We are aware of how crucial it is for our social housing clients to have consistent, punctual, and reliable services. We are aware of the budgetary limitations that housing associations meet and the need for the work be completed efficiently and affordably.
