Who are we?

Meet our team

Based in the medieval city of Dinan, near the north east coast of Brittany, Maison Bretagne is made up of a team of home renovation experts, including a qualified interior architect, interior designer, two full time experienced onsite artisans and a general builder with over 30 years of experience in the construction industry. This complementary mix of skills within Maison Bretagne enables our team to provide a complete A-Z home renovation service to our clients and consistently deliver projects to the highest standards.

We work tirelessly to determine the aspirations of each of our clients in the early stages of a project, no matter how small, beginning with a comprehensive onsite visit, a free quotation and the creation of detailed plans for efficient spacial planning if needed.


The boss

Jon

The boss. A carpenter by trade, Jon is the founder of Maison Bretagne. With a career in the building industry spanning over 30 years, 15 of those in France, Jon is the organiser and project manager of the company, although can be often caught with a hammer in his hand working onsite with the boys.



The creative

Rosie

The creative. With a degree in fashion design and styling and 15 years plus of working in the fashion and homewares industry in both the U.K. and France, Rosie manages the in-house design team and administrative side of Maison Bretagne at our office situated at Lehon 22.

Keith

The backbone of Maison Bretagne, Keith is a seasoned artisan with a general building experience that has been extending over 20 years plus. Always calm and collected, Keith has been a valued member of the Maison Bretagne team since 2018.



The design talent

Abi

The design talent. Abi is a BA (hons) qualified interior architect and interior designer, having studied in both France and the U.K. She is completely bilingual, having been raised and educated for most of her life in France. A whizz on CAD Abi is able to help clients projects come to life through 3D visuals and produces meticulous scaled drawings for the artisans onsite to follow.


The slate master

Tim

The high achiever. Tim is the roofing expert in the team, with 16 years of being up on the tiles working as a roofer in the U.K. Tim is well at ease high up on-top of a building. His favourite job would be to strip back an old tired roof and restore it back to its former glory. On a sunny day you can find him high up on slates, eating his lunch, basking in the rays and feeling on top of the world. 


Team of builders

Our Goals

The journey usually starts with our design team whose job it is to turn the clients thoughts, wants and needs into a more tangible, visual representation through 2D and 3D design. Rosie & Abi make sure there is no stone left unturned and the coherence of a renovation project is achieved throughout all stages of works. We also ensure larger scale projects have a full work schedule to give a clear idea of timeframes from the outset. The design team are also brilliant at sourcing those special touches such as fixtures and fittings which often ties the whole project together for our clients.

Onsite, we have a strong, full time team of  three artisans, all with complementary skills, from carpentry and joinery to roofing, masonry, insulation and plaster boarding. In our opinion attention to detail is key, particularly in the final finishing stages, and for this reason we have a strong network of sub-contractors such as plasterers, tilers and decorators as well as qualified and fully insured electricians and plumbers. We have built up this trusted external team over many years to ensure that the standards and quality of work Maison Bretagne is known for is consistently achieved. You don’t just have to take our work for it, check out our News page to read all about the regular sub-contractors we use.

The Maison Bretagne Office

Our in-house team is based in the medieval town of Dinan. Having lived and worked in this region for over 10 years we have established a solid client portfolio and strong ties to local suppliers and sub-contractors. This feet on the ground knowledge is invaluable and enables us to plan and carry out projects efficiently; and these local links, together with our qualified and bilingual team, form the core strengths of our renovations business. Our team, in turn passes this local knowledge and confidence onto our clients to create a trusting and professional working relationship.

Just as importantly, Maison Bretagne, has built relationships with the local authorities, such as Dinan Agglomeration and the various Mairies in the area, as well as the general governing body of the ‘Batiment de France’. Our in-house planning department is aware of the specific demands concerning the protocols expected when making planning applications and this means that they are usually accepted in the quickest time. Check our Design page to find out more about the services we offer, or our News page to read about the process entailed in applying for a planning.
