New Build Construction Hull

We undertake new residential build projects in Hull and the East Riding. From single plots to small residential developments. Our experience covers traditional brick-and-block construction, timber-frame builds, and mixed construction methods. We can work from architect-drawn plans or coordinate the full design-and-build process on your behalf.

Structural Work & Alterations

From RSJ beam installations to complete structural alterations, our team carries out all types of structural construction work, party wall work, chimney breast removal, load-bearing wall alterations, underpinning, and foundation repairs. All structural work is carried out in line with current Building Regulations and coordinated with a structural engineer where required.

Building Regulations & Planning in Hull

All construction work that involves structural change, extension, or new build requires compliance with Building Regulations even where no planning permission is needed. As your principal contractor, we manage:

  • Building control applications to Hull City Council or an approved inspector
  • Structural calculations (coordinated with our engineering partners)
  • Site inspections at each required stage
  • Completion certificates issued on sign-off

If your project also requires planning permission, we can advise on the application process and work with your architect or planning consultant.
