Local builders
Built around the area, not around our diary.
We're builders born and based in Plymouth. Our yard, our team and our project managers are all local — which means same-day site visits, faster decisions and tradespeople who actually know the difference between a Mannamead Edwardian and a Plymstock 1970s detached.
Plymouth's housing stock is unusually varied. Naval terraces in Stonehouse and Devonport, granite-fronted villas in Mutley and Mannamead, 1930s semis right across Peverell and Hartley, post-war estates in Estover and Honicknowle, and modern detached stock in Plymstock, Plympton and Derriford. We've worked on all of them.
We handle every part of a project under one roof — design coordination, planning with Plymouth City Council, structural engineering, the build itself and a year of aftercare. One contract, one team, one number to call.

Service detailsLocal knowledge
We know the streets — and the council.
Plymouth City Council planning
We deal with PCC's planning portal weekly — including conservation areas in The Hoe and Mannamead, and Article 4 directions where Permitted Development is restricted.
Coastal weather detailing
Salt-laden Atlantic winds need stainless fixings, lead flashings and breathable membranes. We spec for it as standard.
Edwardian & 1930s housing
We know how the typical Plymouth bay-fronted, hip-roof semi behaves — and how to extend or convert one without surprises.
Tight terraces & access
Stonehouse, Greenbank and parts of Mutley have rear-access only or no access at all. We plan around it.
Naval estate covenants
Some former MOD estates have private restrictive covenants. We flag them before drawings start.
