The techniques in building in Abruzzo Italy and the Mediterranean are very diverse from England, Holland, France, Germany, America, etc.. At Craftsmen of Abruzzo the knowledge of our workmen is second to none in all aspects of building in Abruzzo, Italy. We are British builders, our employees are Italians, Rumanians and Dutch.
Being a property developer has taught us that general builders from England would be lost with the traditional techniques used in Abruzzo, as the methods are miles apart from the ones applied in other European countries. Some people may say that the traditional methods are old fashioned. “Yes they are, but the properties are still standing after centuries”. After the recent earthquake, the building inspectors in Penne and Loreto Aprutino reported minimum damages to those old properties that have been renovated and refurbished. On reflection, the new cement concrete poured properties around the region of Abruzzo haven't proven as well as the houses in the historical centres.
We also offer at Craftsmen of Abruzzo, Mini Digger Hire and Large Excavator Hire.
We can recommend B&B (Bed and Breakfast), Agriturismi. We work closely with English speaking Estate Agents and Domestic Property Services, household cleaning, holiday lettings, key holding, laundry services, with references from present clients.

Damp Proofing Italia was established in 2009 as the Italian damp proofing systems are so dated and expensive.
Working in the building industry for the past 18 years abroad has given us a full knowledge of Mediterranean building techniques and in this period there was a grouse lack of damp proofing be it injection systems, membranes and tanking. Therefore we contacted Sovereign Chemicals limited in the United Kingdom, one of the leading manufacturers of damp proofing and building products in Europe.

At the next stage we trained or employees through Sovereign’s Technical Department. Thereby becoming fully converse with all of their products.
