A new build offers a perfect opportunity to create a home tailored to you and your family’s needs. Our expertise in new build residential construction allows us to fully manage the process, pre-planning everything from spatial requirements to the finer details of finishes. With extensive experience in bespoke home building, we guarantee that your new build will meet the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
We collaborate with private, public, and third-sector organisations to guide their commercial new build projects from initial concept through to final completion. As a trusted main contractor, our emphasis is on building enduring client relationships, working across various sectors and project types, including demolition and civil engineering tasks where required.
Regardless of the size or type of project, all construction projects require meticulous planning to ensure success. You need the right resources, materials, and equipment, alongside clear timelines and budgets.
There are many ways to break up the phases of your construction project, for example the RIBA Plan of Work which defines a detailed process for the project life cycle. We have simplified this process into 5 key stages to provide guidance on ensuring your next construction project is a success. This process can be implemented for any project from your domestic extension to commercial new build.
We work with you to create your project’s requirements, scope, and objectives. It’s essential to plan your budget, including a contingency for unforeseen circumstances, particularly on larger and challenging schemes.
Designers are appointed to develop a concept design and support with planning submission and approval. Project Managers can be appointed to ensure feasibility and oversee pre-construction planning, a service we can also offer. All relevant information is issued to carefully selected building contractors for pricing, ensuring compliance with industry standards.
Review the quotations recevied, ensuring they are comprehensive and “like for like” includsive of any clarifications. Once a contractor is appointed, contracts are signed agreeing on costs and durations. Planning pre-commencement conditions are discharged, and long-lead-time materials are ordered to streamline the project.
Physical construction begins, adhering to statutory regulations such as Building Control and Health & Safety standards. Clear communication between all parties is maintained throughout, ensuring the project is delivered smoothly. Payments are made at key milestones or as per agreed timelines.
In the final phase, the project is formally completed. Clients receive operational and maintenance manuals, certificates, and the final sign-off issued to the construction company. Our commitment to client satisfaction continues even after the project is handed over.
