We built a timber frame home in a back garden, during Covid - want to see it now?
Single access lane. Materials going scarce nationwide. Regulations changing week by week. Here’s how Cedar Lodge got built anyway.
When you’re working with a tight plot with only one way in, every delivery, every material movement, every phase of the build has to be thought through before it happens - not on the day.
We started watching the supply chain before most people were talking about it. Locked in pricing early. Ordered ahead.
When shortages hit and costs spiked across the industry, our clients weren’t the ones absorbing it.
Covid threw new rules at construction sites almost monthly.
We adapted, kept the programme moving, and kept our client informed every step of the way.
That’s what proactive project management actually looks like in practice - not a line on a brochure, but decisions made six weeks before they become problems.
Cedar Lodge is here, it’s beautiful. It was delivered on budget. And the client who commissioned it got exactly what they set out to build - even through one of the strangest periods any of us have worked through!
If you’re a embarking on a building project and looking for a contractor who plans ahead and holds the line under pressure, we’d love to hear from you.
