Our clients generally like to have monthly meetings to discuss their project progress.  We are always available on the phone.  The frequency of meetings or communication is catered to the clients desires.  Some prefer a hands-off hassle-free approach, whereas others prefer to have more detailed involvement.

We manage project timelines using a robust project management system that tracks progress at every stage. From the outset, we work closely with clients to create a detailed schedule, clearly outlining milestones and deadlines. Regular progress updates and communication keep everyone informed, so we can promptly address any issues or changes that arise.

We also use critical path analysis and closely monitor resources to prevent delays caused by unforeseen factors. If challenges do occur, our proactive approach allows us to adjust resources or workflows as needed to stay on track. Our goal is always to deliver on time without compromising on quality.

We have extensive experience in new-builds and renovations of existing, having successfully completed hundreds of projects. This experience allows us to proactively foresee and address potential issues. When unforeseen challenges or changes in project scope do arise, we handle them with flexibility and clear communication.

Our first step is to assess the impact on the project timeline and budget, and then collaborate with the client to discuss potential solutions and agree on the best course of action. Our team is skilled at adapting to challenges quickly, ensuring minimal disruption while maintaining the highest quality standards. We keep an open line of communication with all stakeholders, ensuring any changes are fully documented and agreed upon, allowing the project to stay on track.

We also allow for flexibility, as things may change during the build or the client may wish to make adjustments. Our expertise allows us to advise and assist wherever necessary to ensure the best outcome.

We carry comprehensive insurance coverage to protect both our clients and our team throughout the construction process. The extent depends on the build type, but can include:

  • Public Liability Insurance
  • Employer’s Liability Insurance:
  • Contractor’s and Sub-Contractors Insurance

For new-build projects we often use NHBC as our warranty provider for workmanship and materials. This is an external body that inspects and guarantees the works we do.

We believe that having robust insurance and warranty coverage not only protects your investment but also demonstrates our commitment to delivering quality and peace of mind. If you have any specific requirements or questions regarding our coverage, we’re happy to discuss them further.

For areas where we subcontract, we work with a trusted network of regular subcontractors who share our commitment to quality and professionalism. Over the years, we have built strong relationships with these subcontractors, allowing us to ensure consistent standards across all aspects of our projects.

Each subcontractor is carefully vetted based on their expertise, reliability, and past performance. We regularly monitor their work to ensure they meet our quality and safety standards. This collaboration enables us to efficiently manage resources and timelines while maintaining high-quality results.

If a specific project requires specialised skills or services, we source additional subcontractors as needed, always prioritising quality and safety while taking full accountability for their work. Our goal is to deliver a seamless construction experience, and working with trusted partners is a key part of achieving that.

This depends on our current scope of ongoing works, the size of your project and location.  

Please enquire so we can find out more details.  We always endeavour to be transparent and have integrity with our timelines, prioritisation and budgets.  

Yes, we frequently undertake building works while clients remain in their homes. We pride ourselves on being conscientious and respectful, maintaining good housekeeping, and being accommodating to our clients. This approach ensures peace of mind and minimises disruption as much as possible.

We have extensive experience in accessibility adaptations. Our Managing Director, Gary, built his own bespoke home to accommodate his daughter, who has physical and mental disabilities. This personal journey has given us a deep understanding of the importance of creating a haven—a place where comfort, safety, physical development, and beauty converge to form a bespoke environment for you or your loved ones.

We recognise that it’s not just about aesthetics; it’s about creating a space that provides comfort and security, allowing you and your family to thrive. Without the necessary experience and understanding of accessibility requirements, there is a risk of overlooking crucial details that can impact safety, functionality, and overall comfort. Builders who are not well-versed in accessibility may unintentionally omit essential features for individuals with diverse needs, compromising the quality of the project.

We’re based in Sussex and cover the following areas:

  • Sussex
  • Surrey
  • Kent 
  • South London
