What it is
Everything between decision and delivery
On a turnkey project there is exactly one accountable party. We take the project from feasibility through planning, technical design coordination, procurement of every trade and material, the construction programme itself, building-control inspections and the final handover pack. You are consulted at every decision that affects cost, appearance or use — and shielded from the several hundred coordination decisions that do not.
- Design and planning
- Feasibility, planning strategy, architect and engineer coordination, discharge of planning conditions.
- Procurement
- Trade packages tendered on equal scope, long-lead materials ordered against the programme, delivery scheduling.
- Delivery
- Site management, sequencing, quality inspection at each stage, statutory building-control inspections booked and evidenced.
- Handover
- Commissioning, snagging, certificates, warranties and the operation and maintenance information — the complete pack.
Who it suits
Clients who want the outcome, not the second job
- People building a principal home who cannot — or would rather not — give a build twenty hours a week
- Clients overseas or relocating during the build, managing everything through the client portal
- Complex or constrained sites — hillside work, retaining structures, restricted access — where sequencing errors are expensive
- Anyone who wants a single point of responsibility if something goes wrong, rather than a circle of parties pointing at each other
If you would rather keep control of parts of the build yourself, the supported self-build routes may fit better — the comparison is set out plainly there.
How it is best deployed
Appoint before planning is submitted
A turnkey appointment earns most of its keep before anyone is on site. Appointed early, we shape the planning application around buildability and budget rather than discovering conflicts later, and long-lead procurement starts against a real programme.
- Feasibility and budget shapeThe site, the objective and the realistic cost envelope — before design fees are committed.
- Planning strategyApplication prepared around what can actually be built well on the site; pre-application advice where it pays.
- Technical design and procurementEngineering coordinated, trade packages tendered on equal scope, long-lead items ordered.
- ConstructionA levelled programme, inspection at every stage gate, and a live client portal showing exactly where the build stands.
- Completion and handoverCommissioning, certificates, warranties and aftercare — the building and its paperwork, finished.
Notable projects
Turnkey work, shaped by its sites
Contemporary Hillside Residence
A full turnkey delivery on a steeply sloping site — retaining structures, restricted access and a programme that had to respect both.
View the project →Hillside Balcony Structure
Engineered balcony and terrace works on a constrained slope — small footprint, serious engineering.
View the project →Bungalow Transformation
A dated bungalow rebuilt and extended into a family home — turnkey coordination of structure, envelope and finish.

Indicative figures, honestly framed
High-end turnkey new builds are generally priced from around £2,500 per square metre upward, depending on site, specification and access. The build-cost estimator gives a project-specific indicative range in about two minutes and can send the full breakdown to us as a quote request.
A typical detached turnkey build runs roughly 12 to 18 months on site, preceded by planning and technical design. Every live project runs on a levelled programme with delivery-confidence modelling — the same programme clients watch in the portal.
