What we do
Our packages for 2027
For housing sites, for builders and for homeowners. Every job is priced to your drawings and scope of works.
For homeowners
Thinking about an extension?
You don't need to be a builder to work with us. We'll manage your extension or building work from start to finish, and organise every trade, so you only deal with one person. Smaller jobs are welcome too: repointing, garden walls, steps and patios.

Housing sites: rough brick count & gang days
A quick planning guide for your programme. It uses typical wall areas for each house type, so your drawings will always give the real figure. No prices, just quantities and time.
A gang here means two bricklayers and a labourer.

How we work
From enquiry to handover
A simple, predictable process, so you always know where your brickwork is.
- 01
Tell us about the job
Send your drawings, house types or subcontractor pack. Homeowners, just tell us what you have in mind, or send your plans if you have them. A phone call works too.
- 02
We price it
We price from your drawings, or come and look at the site or your home. Rates are competitive and can be discussed depending on the scope of works.
- 03
Agree a start date
We agree a firm start date and plan gangs plot by plot against your programme. Insurance, RAMS and CSCS details come to you before we start.
- 04
Gang on site
The gang turns up when we said, works to gauge and keeps the site clean. On homeowner jobs we organise every other trade too. One point of contact runs the job: me.
- 05
Photo progress updates
Your site and commercial teams get regular photo updates, so you can see progress without driving out to check.
- 06
Handover with no snags
We walk the work with your site manager or with you, sort anything on the spot and hand over clean, ready for the next trade.
