Our Process

A structured approach that reduces uncertainty for private clients: clear scope, milestone checks, and practical site standards that respect your home.

1) Initial Consultation

We discuss your goals, constraints and likely scope. We’ll highlight feasibility considerations (planning, access, services, structural) and agree next steps.

Feasibility Budget alignment Timeline

2) Site Visit & Brief

We review the property, take key measurements, and identify constraints. For structural works we coordinate early technical input as needed.

Survey Constraints Risk items

3) Quotation & Inclusions

We provide a clear quotation with inclusions/exclusions and assumptions. This helps keep changes controlled and expectations aligned.

Scope clarity Change control Programme

4) Pre-Start Planning

We plan protection, access, neighbours (where required), deliveries and welfare. We coordinate Building Control and inspections.

Site protection Inspections Logistics

5) Construction Phase

Disciplined sequencing, milestone quality checks and regular updates. Variations are documented so decisions are clear.

Weekly updates Milestones Quality

6) Handover & Aftercare

We complete snagging, provide handover information, and support a practical defects period where applicable.

Snagging Commissioning Aftercare

Common questions (built into our process)

These are the items that typically matter most to private residential clients. We address them early to keep the project predictable.

Planning permission

We can advise on typical requirements and coordinate with your architect/planning consultant where needed. Many projects depend on permitted development, location, and scope.

Can you live in the property?

Sometimes, yes. It depends on the scope, services shutdowns, and safety. We’ll discuss practical staging and protection during the consultation.

How do payments work?

Typically staged payments aligned to milestones. This keeps cashflow transparent and progress measurable.

Variations and changes

Changes are priced and agreed in writing before proceeding wherever possible. This keeps decisions controlled and avoids surprises.

Building Control

We coordinate inspections and compliance steps during the build phase, aligned to the agreed scope and drawings/spec.

Insurance and site standards

We work with clear site conduct: protection, dust management and tidy working. We can confirm insurance position during consultation.
