Commercial

We frequently undertake the role of Principal Contractor on commercial projects taking full responsibility for all aspects of the build. We are a CIOB Chartered Building Company providing assurance of the highest level of competence and professionalism. Many of our projects are complex requiring careful planning and skilled management. We embrace construction innovation and approach each project with enthusiasm often finding cost savings and programme improvement. Our core directly employed workforce are well trained and add value to every project. 

Industrial

Whether it is an extension to an existing facility or a new building, your construction project will be handled carefully using our proven project management systems by our experienced team. You may want to consider early procurement via a JCT accredited Preconstruction Service Agreement to accelerate your project, to achieve business critical timescales. A comprehensive understanding of Preconstruction options and access to our comprehensive data base of rates will achieve early understanding of final cost.

Residential

We are well versed in low rise residential construction projects within in both the private and public sector. The complexities of residential fire strategy and the dependency on robust core construction skills is a prerequisite of a successful project. Our well-trained FIRAS accredited teams are equipped with the knowledge and training to ensure peace of mind long after completion. Attention to a ‘fabric first’ approach to energy conservation ensures the lifecycle cost of your project is minimised.

Healthcare

Our construction activities in this sector often require careful planning due to the controls and restrictions involved when working in and around live Healthcare and Life Science environments. The increased demand in this sector could involve the expansion of existing facilities to create new spaces or the reappropriation of existing buildings. Our in-house Design Coordinators often play a key role in ensuring building services, plant and equipment are careful integrated into the fabric of the structure with careful consideration for access, maintenance and user experience.

 

Retail

Timescales are typically demanding in this sector. Our construction activities may involve a whole new build retail unit or an extension to create additional square footage. The pressures involved to commence trading are fully understood and we work hard to ensure construction programmes are achieved. If your site is ‘live’, we will ensure the customer experience is not unduly affected by construction activities. The pressure of time, speed and quality are most felt in this sector. Communication channels are always open to ensure you are kept fully informed to allow agile business decisions throughout the construction phase.

Education

We specialise in delivering construction projects for the education sector creating safe, functional, and inspiring spaces tailored to the needs of students and staff. From classrooms and laboratories to libraries and communal areas, we design and build environments that support modern teaching methods while adhering to strict compliance and safety standards.

Understanding the importance of minimising disruption to the school day, we offer flexible scheduling options including working outside of classroom hours or during school holidays. This ensures that construction activities are completed efficiently without interfering with daily operations.

Early engagement

Using a design and build company offers a streamlined approach to construction, combining design and construction services under one contract. This strategy encourages collaboration between architects, engineers and designers from the outset, reducing the risk of miscommunication and ensuring a more cohesive process. It often results in faster project delivery, as potential issues are addressed early and overlapping phases can accelerate timelines. Additionally, having a single point of responsibility simplifies project management and can lead to cost savings, as budgets are managed more effectively with fewer surprises.
