Vernacular Homes marks 25 years of success

Vernacular Homes will start the new year celebrating –25 years in business.

In 2000, brothers-in-law Trevor Weeks and Edward Burgess established the company, building on their previous experience working together on design and construction projects. Their goal was to provide a unique service – architectural design that balances lifestyle needs and budget, with creative and thoughtful ideas and layouts.

Specialising in high quality new builds, barn conversions and renovation projects, they have developed a distinct expertise in working with customers to create bespoke designs that reflect the property’s character and the client’s vision. Whether preserving the heritage of a historic building or crafting a modern, customdesigned home, every project is executed with exceptional attention to detail, delivering spaces that are functional, beautiful, and built to last.

Trevor and Edward are now looking forward to taking a step back and handing over the reins to the next generation. Edward’s sons, Oliver and Ashley who have been with the company for nearly 20 years, are taking on key management roles, marking an exciting new chapter for the Woodchurch-based company. With their combined expertise and vision, the brothers are ready to guide the company to its future success.

Oliver Burgess said: “Reaching 25 years is a significant milestone, and we’re incredibly proud of how far the business has come. In 2025, we plan to expand our services and enhance our use of digital design tools to elevate the design experience for clients and streamline the build process. It’s an exciting time, and we’re committed to leveraging everything we’ve learned over the past 25 years to ensure Vernacular Homes continues to thrive in the next 25.” vernacularhomes.com
