Our Story

Meet James Ferris,
the hands behind Harts.

Harts is led by James Ferris, a time-served joiner and plasterer with over 25 years' experience across every corner of the construction industry — from a single skimmed wall to a full house renovation.

What started as a trade learned properly, the long way, has grown into a local building business trusted by homeowners, interior designers, architects and developers across Lincolnshire. The range is broad — general building, plastering, refurbishments, garage conversions and the decorative Venetian finishes that give the business its name — but the standard never changes.

We're a small, hands-on team that takes real pride in quality and consistency. Every project is managed with precision and delivered on time and on budget, with clear communication from the first site visit to the final finish.

“Our work speaks for itself — we always go above and beyond.”
