New Build Construction
New build projects from the ground up: bespoke homes, residential schemes and commercial buildings, taken from early planning through to a finished, handed-over building.
Why choose us for your new build?
New homes, commercial buildings and public facilities, from single plots to developments.
Homes delivered
new-build homes across recent island schemes: two eco homes at Cronk Watterson, the Cass A Lhergy bungalow and three high-spec homes at Tickle Close
Early involvement
input on buildability, budget and lead times, tested before the design is fixed so projects start on realistic assumptions
Cost tracked live
accredited quantity surveyor tracking programme and cost together through regular CVRs and review meetings
Our process
Initial discussion and brief
We review the site, understand the brief and talk through what is fixed and what is still being shaped. Understanding first, selling never.
Pre-construction and buildability
Budget, programme, lead times, utilities and approvals are tested with the design team. This is the stage that protects the rest of the project.
Programme setup and mobilisation
Long-lead orders placed, site mobilised, sequencing locked in before work starts on site, not figured out on the way.
Live construction and coordination
Site Manager runs day-to-day delivery, the Project Manager coordinates trades and statutory bodies, and the Commercial Director keeps cost oversight through regular CVRs.
Completion, snagging and handover
We complete the build, work through snagging, finalise documentation and hand over ready for occupation. A good handover is part of the job.

Yes. Where it suits the project, we can take responsibility from early concept and design coordination through to full construction and completion. Design and build keeps buildability, programme and cost under one roof, which tends to suit clients who want a single point of accountability.
Lead times, utilities, design changes, labour availability and weak early coordination are usually the biggest risks to programme and budget on a new build. We manage these by testing them upfront — in pre-construction — rather than discovering them once site is live.
It depends on size and complexity. Smaller new builds can be delivered in several months; larger schemes or phased developments can run beyond a year. The honest answer is set at the pre-construction stage, once budget, programme and procurement are tested properly.
New builds on the island are heavily influenced by planning requirements, building control, section agreements, utility coordination, labour availability, material lead times, shipping logistics and weather exposure — alongside the higher overall cost of building on an island. Strong local relationships with Building Control, Planning and the utility companies, and a procurement strategy that respects shipping realities, make a real difference to programme and cost.
