Commercial builders in York
Refurbishment, fit-out, minor works and new build for York's schools, healthcare sites, offices and businesses.
Careful building work in a historic city
York is a city where buildings are rarely empty and often old. Offices, schools, clinics and shops stay open while the work goes on around them, and many sit in conservation areas or are listed.
That makes planning as important as building. Before we start, we agree access, working hours, deliveries and noisy work with you, so the people using the building can carry on. Where a building is listed or in a conservation area, we work with your architect or surveyor so the approach and materials suit it and the right consents are in place.
Outside the historic centre, York's business parks, industrial estates, universities, schools and hospital sites need everything from office fit-outs and washroom refurbishments to extensions and new units.
We're based in east Leeds, with a straight run up the A64 to York, and bring our own site team and plant to every job.
