RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY

Full Build

Have you got an empty space that needs something on it? We can supply assistance from initial planning, clearing the site, laying the foundations through to completion.

Rather than buying a property built by someone else to someone else's requirements, perhaps you would prefer to have your own dream home built from the ground up exactly to your specifications.

We can start with an empty space and create your home, your building exactly as you want it - subject to planning permission and building regulations etc.

From the ground to the tip of the chimney we can do it all - foundations, floors and walls, roof, plastering, wiring and plumbing.

If this sounds like your cup of tea contact us and we will happily drop by to discuss your needs and give you a complete breakdown of what is involved.

COMMERCIAL PROJECTS

A complete service from plans and design to building control and construction.

One example of a commercial project that you can easily view is Vision House, home of Gloveman Supplies.

Vision House consists of a large 60,000 sq ft warehouse, the usual office space for three companies, telesales area, kitchen, and toilet facilities.

Outside the building, there is a large fully tarmacced area to provide access for articulated lorries and other commercial vehicles as well as staff parking.

G.R. Building Contractors were involved with every aspect of the build from construction to decor and fittings.

EXTENSIONS / GARAGES / CONSERVATORIES

Cornwall is a wonderful place to live. However, every "Garden of Eden" has it's snake, and in Cornwall the snake is the ratio between income and house prices.

Many people need a bit more living space yet cannot afford all the expenses involved in moving to a larger property.

Or, perhaps, you don't want to move from what is more than just a roof over your head - years of good times and bad times, memories of family and friends, many magic moments - in short a home!

The alternative is to build an extension - upwards or outwards. Take that "dead" space and make it into something of value.

We can advise you on the feasibility of adding an extension, costings and local council regulations.

If an extension suits your needs and fits your budget then we can provide a full service from clearing the initial space to putting your feet up and drinking a celebratory glass of wine!

RENOVATIONS

Sometimes your four walls start to show their age. We can bring back that fresh, newly made look, both internally and externally.

Pointing, decorating, replacing fascias and cladding. All is within our scope.

Got an old barn or outbuilding that is in danger of becoming a repository of the world's largest collection of cobwebs? We can take a bare shell and turn it into a useful piece of architecture, a stunning addition to your home.

The one area that you are guaranteed to have a problem sooner or later is your roof. Loose tiles, broken slates, wind damage. We can restore your roof to its original pristine condition.

Internal and External Renovations, Conversions & Roofing Services, from initial planning to completion we can help.

Contact us now for more information.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

There are many facets to a building project. Sometimes you have a multitude of trades people involved in a project, and sometimes it is hard to co-ordinate all their various services.

There is no point in having the double glazing delivered if the walls haven't been built.

You don't want the nice new parquet floors laid before the roof is completed or the rain will ruin them.

Who should you get in first, the plumber or the electrician?

There's no point having the mason sitting around on site drinking tea (and charging you to do so) while you wait for the concrete blocks to be delivered.

It can be can nightmare sorting out all the various trades people, liaising between them, setting (and sticking) to schedules, arranging delivery at the correct times.

We have a dedicated team to provide hands on project management and assistance.

Contact us for more information.

COSTING

The bottom line with any building project is price. Very few of us have unlimited funds to draw upon (unfortunately).

If you are not careful, your initial estimate of the cost of a building project can spiral out of control.

Money

We can stand back and look passionately at the project as a whole and keep the budget on track.

We provide an up to date and complete costing analysis, assisting our clients with budget control.

We want you receive a top class job at a fair price so you will come to us again and/or recommend us to others.
