Our expertise covers all aspects of building work, from simple extensions and loft conversions to large-scale commercial or residential developments. Building Regulations can be complex, which is why we are happy to offer advice and guidance throughout a project to help all of our clients avoid unnecessary costs and delays.

We have been awarded an ISO 9001 Quality Accreditation which serves as a signifier of the quality of services we provide. We’ll seek to continue to build from this and develop our reputation for consistency in excellence.

Example of work 1
Recognised with a Highly Commended nomination in the Best Community Building Project category of the 2011 LABC Central Building Excellence Awards. The Blackburn Science Centre at Bradfield College is a state of the art facility enabling the teaching of science in one high quality building. The very latest sustainable design technology has been used in the construction of the building which contains ten sophisticated laboratories, a living (green) roof and a variety of energy saving details such as Biomass Boiler, Photovoltaics and Rainwater Harvesting. The building incorporates a range of environmentally friendly materials and is making best use of free natural resources such as daylighting and natural ventilation. There is also a’ living’ roof and bat bricks have been installed to the loft space to provide a roosting habitat for this endangered and vulnerable species.
Example of work 2
Winner of Best Community Project in the LABC Central Building Excellence Awards for 2010, the award winning ‘Lea House’ development is a community project and incorporates 5 affordable apartments and premises for the community store and post office. The local community had great input from conception to completion and the excellent relationships between all parties involved have made the development a great success.
Example of work 3
A finalist in the Small Housing Development category of the LABC Central Building Excellence Awards 2011, Palady Homes are a Newbury based small/medium developer, specializing in high quality developments. Their policy is to build properties in keeping with the local area, using materials which can be found in nearby developments, and which are common to the Newbury area. Red brick, clay tiles, tile hung features and period window detailing. Their client base tends to be local and they have a high number of second/third time purchasers, who are pleased with the quality and value of our properties. This project is close to one of Newbury’s historical buildings, and as such was designed to be in keeping with the architectural detail of that property but not to overshadow it.
