The journey begins with our Director Andy popping by to meet you in person to understand your vision and goals, budget, deadline and any specific requirements. If you do not have an assigned architect, we can recommend local architects we have worked with over recent years. We can also recommend interior designers depending on your project scope and budget.

We invite our clients to share any architectural and/or structural plans with us so we can prepare a budget estimate or full tender. We may ask some further questions but usually we have what we need. This step can take approximately two weeks.

At this stage, we present either a budget estimate (which gives you a gauge of costs) or a full tender., depending how far along you are in the planning and drawings phase. Our tenders are very comprehensive and detailed. We encourage clients to chat these through with us as it can be tricky to compare like for like quotations with other contractors. There may also be areas in which the specifications can be amended and cost-saving initiatives applied so we always recommend a conversation. We do all we can to align on a budget and timeline upfront.

When you're ready to go ahead, we take a small deposit to secure your position in our schedule. We can largely fit in around your preferred timeline in a matter of weeks or months. The first steps will include any required demolishment. From the outset, we share a budget tracker based on the detailed tender which allows our clients to see exactly line by line, what we are billing and when.

We live and work locally - our management team of four is based in both the office and on site, so we have all bases covered. We welcome open communication and are a pretty relaxed bunch, who are happy to help! In addition, we set regular monthly meetings on site to review the progress of the build with the client, and to discuss the monthly valuation of works in person.
