I’m looking to speak with videographers/photographers about partnering with us to capture some high quality footage and videos of our work / sites

We deliver a high standard of finish on our projects, and we need the media/content to reflect that.

What we are looking for:

High-end, cinematic video walkthroughs of completed commercial fit-outs and premium domestic jobs.
Professional, high-quality photography of the finished spaces.
Occasional site visits to capture work in progress footage.

We aren't looking for someone just pointing an iPhone around for day to day content. We are looking for proper, polished content that we can use across our socials, website and for our portfolio for potential clients.

Right now we are looking to speak to a few people/companies, see some examples of your previous work, and get a realistic idea of what you could do for us.

If this is what you do or you know someone, drop a link to your portfolio or showreel in the comments, or send me a DM, and we can take it from there.

We’ve just added the Benchdog Ultra MFT to our new workshop!

It’s a work station that keeps every cut, joint and finish dead square and accurate. And because it packs down and travels, we can take that same accuracy straight onto site for the final fit.

The result you see is only ever as good as the surface it was built on. Get that right and the finish speaks for itself.

If you’ve got a bespoke build in mind, get in touch.

We cover everything from full turnkey fitouts to bespoke one-off jobs

A leak from the flats above had got under the vinyl…

By the time any issues became visible on the surface, it was too late. The chipboard was already completely saturated.

So we took it all out and started again.

Renewed the floating floor then overlayed some fresh 6mm ply, then redid the risers up the wall so the safety flooring had the best possible surface to grip to. Feather-edged it, prepped the whole thing properly, relaid the safety flooring, and put the shop back together like we were never there.

The vinyl is the bit everyone sees. The reason it’ll last is the bit nobody sees, the ply, the edges, the prep underneath. Skip that and you’re back lifting it again in a year.

If you have a similar issue and you’re not sure how far the damage goes, give us a shout for honest advice and we can help deal with the insurance claim as well

A leaking waste pipe under a sink doesn't sound like much. Until the water gets under the floor.

On this one, the leak had been quietly soaking the chipboard beneath the flooring, including under the cold room.

Left alone, a simple maintenance task can turn into a much bigger job and it ends up costing 10 times more to fix and repair than just being proactive on your maintenance.

On this one we had to:

Strip out the sinks
Stripped down the cold room to get access
Cut out the water-damaged chipboard
Re-laid new chipboard
Fitted new Altro safety flooring, welded at the joints so water can't get down through it again
Then re-fitting the sinks and another location.

The client made the most of the downtime and had us extend the cold room while we were in, so they came out of it with more storage than they started with.

Start to finish, we turned it round in under 24 hours. No closure was required and no half-fix.

If something's gone wrong on your site and you need it sorted fast and sorted right, get in touch.

Here’s a shop front we rebuilt over in Glasgow, new timber shopfront, and signage.

We could have done this in plywood or marine ply like most would.

But we used Tricoya MDF instead, and it’s what we’ll always point a client towards for anything going outside.

Tricoya is guaranteed anywhere from 25 to 50 years depending on how it’s used. It costs a bit more up front. But in all the years we’ve used it, we’ve never had a single callback.

Standard / marine plywood outside is a different story. We’ve lost count of the amount of jobs we get called out to fix just because someone tried to save a few quid on a cheaper boards

If you are stripping out and refitting an exterior, do it once and do it right. Cheaper up front always isn’t cheaper in the long run.

Build. Fit Out. Maintain.

We built this food stall for a client running outdoor food events.

The brief was simple: it had to come apart and go back together on site. So we made every part easy to transport, quick to set up, and solid once it’s standing. It flat packs down too, so it’s easy to store when it’s not in use.

Move it to one event, set it up, break it down, store it away. Ready to go again next time.

If you need something done and you’re not sure whether it’s something we cover, get in touch for honest advice.

Just wrapped up a job at a school in Loch Leven.

The old shutters and framework weren't up to the fire rating needed, so they had to come out.

We teamed up with EAS (Entrance Access Solutions) to strip it all back and re-frame the opening for the new shutter.

Rock wool insulated the whole frame, double sheeted with fireline board, fire taped, then over clad in MDF and painted up to give it a proper finish.

Mopped down and ready for the kids coming back before anyone noticed we'd been there.

Before and after pics below.

If you've got a school, office or commercial unit that needs fire rated work done properly, give us a message.

We’re looking for a self-employed CIS joiner, or a small joinery squad wanting to infill their diary, to help us at SWB Projects.

We do high-end bespoke domestic work and commercial fit-outs across Glasgow and the Central Belt.

Because of the standard we work to, we need somebody who can actually do the job. First and second fix, dry lining, hanging doors, fitting bespoke counters etc

We run a small, tight squad. Talk a good game but can’t back it up and you’ll get found out on day one. We want someone reliable who works off their own back. And somebody who can work as part of a team and by themselves

What you bring:

Your own basic toolkit and transport
Your own public liability insurance CSCS card (preferred, not essential)

Experience helps, but if you’ve got the right attitude and get on with the boys, we’ll train you up on the rest. The right fit matters more to us than a CV full of jobs.

No stiff office interviews either. It’s a two-week working trial on site. You see if you like the standard, we see if you can graft. Everyone’s happy, we sit down and sort a proper rates etc.

Whether you want steady ongoing work or just to plug a few gaps, drop us a DM or send your CV over and we’ll take it from there.

Honestly, most hygiene cladding just gets glued up fast with a gun adhesive. It's quick, it's cheap, and it’s practically guaranteed to start lifting at some point especially anywhere near a heat source.

We heat and bend the sheets around every corner ourselves (thermoforming) so there's absolutely no joint where the wall turns.

Then it goes up with a proper two-part adhesive. I guarantee that panel is not coming off that wall again.

It costs a bit more than the quick way, but you get a kitchen that actually lasts, instead of spending dead money to replace it all again in two years' time!

If you need a commercial kitchen or hygiene area sorted properly, just give us a message.

Out first thing this morning to help a client upgrade one of their existing stores!

They wanted to bring in some updated units and appliances from another location to refresh the space. The only catch? The existing stainless steel table from the other unit was too big for the new layout.
Instead of dealing with the delays of ordering new, we handled the modifications right there on site:

Cut the stainless steel table down to perfectly fit this new layout

Fabricated and fitted brand-new custom end plates for a seamless finish
Repositioned and securely mounted the computer screens
Left the area spotless and 100% ready for trading

The best part? No downtime for the client. The doors opened as normal, just with a better setup inside. That’s the kind of seamless upgrade we love delivering.

If you have a commercial space that needs a refit, an upgrade, or some custom fabrication to make things work perfectly, we can help you get it sorted without the stress.
