The Company:-

Eloquently located on the waterfront, you will often find the Director paddle-boarding home after a successful day at the office; and nearby, the local pub provides the perfect hub for after work drinks and team celebrations.

The company have a backbone of high-end residential and domestic projects, accumulating in excess of 130 projects a year. These commissions range from £150,000 – £1.2million in contract value, and include extensions, refurbishments and new builds within Surrey, London and along the South Coast.

Each of their offices remain interactive with one another, using skype as a form of regular communication, and meeting as an entire team on a regular basis both for training and social events including race days, treasure hunts and fun competitions.
