established

Established in 1991, we have been involved in many of the major construction projects in and around Exeter. Our portfolio includes significant builds such as the Princesshay Shopping Precinct (for McAlpine Ltd, 2008), the Southgate Hotel (for Rok Ltd), and Jurys Hotel (now Leonardo, for McAleer & Rushe Ltd). We have also worked on several University of Exeter developments, including the Science Building.

We were proud recipients of a Top 100 NHBC Award for our Bonhay Road project for A & H Gadd Ltd.

Our client base is broad and long-standing — notably, we have worked continuously with Devon Contractors since the late 1990s. Over the years, we’ve also delivered numerous housing developments for Bovis Homes, Tilia Homes (formerly Kier Living, with the Chard site currently in progress), Barratt Homes, and Cavanna Homes.

Another of our valued clients is Classic Builders, for whom we recently completed projects at RNAS Yeovilton and the Exeter College Rugby Centre at Flowerpot.

While we have streamlined our operations in recent years, we retain a core team of around 20 highly skilled bricklayers, many of whom have been with us for decades.

We continue to take on all types of bricklaying work, from extensions to large-scale new build projects, maintaining the same high standards and reliability that have defined us for over 30 years.
