About us
We are an Off-site manufacturer, at the forefront of the sector.

We have a range of sustainable build systems, that utilise Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) that allows us to construct homes which are Greener, Faster, Better.

We supply the nation's House Builders with state of the art, third party certified wall panel systems, large floor cassettes and roof systems.

Nationwide, from Exeter to Aberdeen and everything in between we have a network of skilled Installers and regional Construction Managers and Supervisors installing timber superstructures on our client's developments.

With a capacity to manufacture 10k houses a year, we supply and install for the UK's leading private house builders.

We do the same in the affordable sector working for national and regional contractors. We also enjoy strong relationships with more regionally focussed house builders. So, our portfolio of projects is diverse from small developments to large schemes and a variety of designs.

We have a range of Build Systems and services to suit our client's needs; it's what we call tailored customisation.

We differentiate ourselves through great client service, even going so far as offer training modules to our clients on MMC.

We are always pushing for better ways to make Off-Site Manufacturing more efficient, better quality, more cost effective and make net carbon homes a reality.
