Read moreWhy Parker James
Parker James was established in 2013. We combine practical building knowledge with a focus on design, organisation and looking after our customers. We wanted to build a family run business homeowners could rely on: a personal approach, with work completed to a high standard.
The company has grown over the years, but our personal involvement and attention to detail remain at the heart of what we do. You deal with Wayne, not a call centre, and you know who is on your site and what happens next.
Request Your EstimateDecades of hands-on work behind every quote, so problems are spotted on paper rather than halfway through the build.
Architect's drawings and structural engineer's calculations prepared for you, and building control dealt with through the job.
Groundworks, brickwork, roofing, plastering, plumbing, heating and electrics coordinated together: no gaps between trades.
£2,000,000 public liability insurance and a 10-year insurance-backed structural guarantee with QANW.

Our Work






Guarantees & Approvals



Customer Reviews
Wayne, Tracey and the team were professional throughout, kept us informed and the craftsmanship was excellent. The new space complements our home perfectly: we'd highly recommend them for an extension or a conservatory.
Professional, courteous and friendly staff, a reasonable cost and the work was done promptly. We were kept informed the whole way through. 11 out of 10: highly recommended.
Where We Work
Based in Hednesford, Cannock, and working throughout the region.
The detail behind the work
Most homeowners in Cannock don't really want a building project. They want a bigger kitchen, a spare bedroom, somewhere quiet to work, or a room that finally makes the garden usable in April rather than July. The building work is simply the price of getting there. Our job is to make that price, in money, in time and in disruption, as predictable as it can honestly be.
That starts before anyone lifts a shovel. As house extension builders across Staffordshire we prepare architect's drawings and structural engineer's calculations for your project, so what gets submitted for planning and building control is the same thing that gets built. Single storey extensions, double storey extensions, structural alterations to open a ground floor up, each is priced from drawings rather than guesswork, and each is set out with a realistic programme.
Conservatories and orangeries are where the company began, and they remain a large part of what we do. A conservatory in Cannock or an orangery in Stafford is only as good as the base it sits on and the glass that goes into it. We build from the footings up, match the brickwork to the house, and specify glazing that keeps the room comfortable in summer and usable in winter, not a room the family avoids for half the year.
Loft conversions in Cannock and garage conversions in Lichfield are often the most efficient way to gain a room, because the shell already exists. Head height, stair position and fire regulations decide whether a loft works, and we tell you straight away if it doesn't. Garage conversions are quicker again: insulate, damp-proof, glaze, plaster and finish, and a cold store becomes an office, playroom or bedroom.
Larger schemes: double storey extensions in Birmingham, structural alterations in Stoke-on-Trent, full internal reconfigurations: bring more trades and more sequencing. Because plumbing, heating and electrical works are part of what we offer, those trades sit on the same programme rather than being booked in by you around ours. Kitchen installation can be included at the end so the new space is finished, not just built.
Behind all of it sits the paperwork that matters: £2,000,000 of public liability insurance, and a 10-year insurance-backed structural guarantee through QANW, Quality Assured National Warranties. That guarantee stays with the property, which matters when you come to sell. Extension architects' drawings in Cannock, extension builders in Solihull, conservatory work closer to home: the standard and the cover are the same.
