Appraisal
Site visit, constraints, planning position and an honest view of what the plot will carry — before anyone spends money on drawings.
Our approach
A build should hold no surprises
Four stages, one team and a cost plan you can read. This is how a project runs from the first site visit to the day we hand over the keys.
Who we work with
Clients who care how it is put together
We work with people and organisations who would rather get it right than get it quickly. If your project sits in one of these categories, we can help.
Private Clients
Self-Builders
Landowners
Property Investors
Small Developers
Main Contractors
Architects
Estates & Trusts
The process
Four stages from land to keys
Each stage ends with something you can hold: a written appraisal, a costed specification, a signed contract, a completed home.
Design & Cost
Design coordinated with architect and engineer, a written specification and an open-book cost plan you can interrogate line by line.
Build
Groundworks, structure, envelope, services and finishes on an agreed programme, with weekly reporting and written variations only.
Handover
Commissioning, building control sign-off, warranty documentation, a walked snag list closed out, then a defined aftercare period.
Contracts & compliance
Clear terms. Proper paperwork.
Every project runs on a written contract with a defined scope, programme and payment schedule. We work to recognised industry forms, carry the insurances a principal contractor should carry, and keep records that stand up to scrutiny — from a lender, a building inspector or a future buyer's solicitor.
Contract form, payment terms, retention and warranty provider are agreed in writing before works commence. Insurance certificates and health and safety documentation are available on request.
Written contract, defined scope and agreed payment schedule
Principal contractor duties under CDM taken seriously, not signed away
Building control and warranty inspections coordinated through the programme
Variations priced and approved in writing before they are built
Handover pack: certificates, warranties, drawings and manuals
Ways to work with us
Three engagement models
Design & Build
We hold both design and construction. One contract, one programme, one party accountable for the finished house.
Fixed Price Build
You arrive with a fully designed scheme; we price it against the drawings and specification and build to a fixed sum.
Negotiated Contract
Open-book pricing with an agreed margin — suited to complex sites and clients who want visibility of every cost.
Communication
You will always know where the job is.
A weekly report covering progress against programme, spend against budget, decisions we need from you and anything that has changed. No chasing, no vague answers, and no discovering a problem at the point it becomes expensive.
