La Roche Restoration began way back in 1985 when Raphael started his journey as an apprentice to a general builder in Kent, helping to build and fit out property extensions. Throughout his colourful career he expanded his knowledge in decorating, plastering, and worked in landscaping for several years. He was one of the first in the area to gain formal qualifications in decorative concreting and went on to further his expertise with qualifications in landscape design, painting and decorating and interior design. He ran a painting, decorating and landscape business for many years before moving to Herefordshire to focus his work on character properties and traditional building methods.
Where It All Began
Where We Are Today
We are currently working on projects from simple painting or landscaping jobs to full blown restoration of listed buildings from the ground up all over Herefordshire, Shropshire, Monmouthshire, Gloucestershire and Worcestershire. We love the variety in our work and are keen to expand our portfolio even further with more bespoke and customised construction projects.
