About
Little Dog
Construction
At Little Dog Construction, we’re a father-and-son team based in Winchester, Hampshire, with more than five decades of combined experience in the construction industry.
We proudly serve the South of England — including Hampshire, Surrey, and London — delivering a full range of high-quality building and renovation services.
Over 50 Years of Combined Experience
Committed to Innovation & Sustainability
From complete refurbishments to bespoke extensions, medical clinics to hospitality venues, office fit-outs to garden transformations - if it can be built, repaired, or revived, chances are we’ve done it. No job is too big or too small.
Our mission is simple: to provide clients with a trustworthy, all-in-one construction service that delivers quality, attention to detail, and a smooth experience from start to finish. But what truly sets us apart is our forward-thinking approach to construction.
At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to innovation and sustainability. If we can save usable materials from going to landfill, we will. We actively look for opportunities to recycle, reuse, and reduce waste on every project — without ever compromising on the standard of our craftsmanship.
Whether it’s a small repair or a full-scale build, we bring creativity, professionalism, and a hands-on touch to every detail. We work closely with our clients to bring their vision to life while ensuring each project is practical, efficient, and environmentally responsible.
