Look what turned up on site this week! 🦖

A big thank you to the team at Dragon Equipment for delivering our brand new CR450 Diesel Crusher here in Herefordshire.

So what does it actually mean for you? When we’re working on your extension, groundworks or garden project, old brick, block and concrete doesn’t just get carted off in skip after skip. We can crush it down on site and reuse it as hardcore for bases, paths and sub-floors. Less waste, fewer skips on your driveway, and a greener build all round.

Thanks again to Dragon Equipment for the smooth delivery. We can’t wait to put it to work!

🏡✨ Construction in Progress: Bulley Lane

An in-progress, stunning transformation for a client who spent years searching for a property that could finally bring his passions together - cars, horses, and a home built for both.

What started as a renovation has grown into something much bigger: raised ceilings, a glass-floored light well flooding the old part of the house with natural light, a floating staircase upgrade, hidden rooms, and a garage with car lifts fit for a serious collection.

Outside, ten acres are being shaped for equestrian life, with a new manège and stables on the way. And when it's finished? A U-shaped patio linking the kitchen to a brand-new games room, ready for long summer evenings.

Every fixture, every finish, chosen to last, right down to the charred larch cladding and silicon render that'll never need repainting.

This is what happens when a client trusts the vision and lets the team run with it. 👏

⛳ Proud to sponsor Jack Douglas!

We love supporting young local talent and Jack is one to watch. 👀

At just 16, he's already playing for Gloucestershire County U16s, holding his own in Brickhampton's Men's A Team (welcomed into a much older squad with flying colours 👏), turning out for Ross-on-Wye's junior team, and he's part of the Elite Development Programme with a 3–0 record in his first season. Not a bad start!

Jack's ambition? To go as far as he can as an elite amateur, with his sights firmly set on one day teeing it up at The Open Championship and eventually turning professional. 🏆

Here he is alongside a replica of the Claret Jug at Turnberry, sporting his Raptor-branded kit. He wears it to every tournament, and we couldn't be prouder to have our logo travelling with him.

Keep aiming high Jack, we're right behind you! 🦖⛳

Another job finished, and this one's a real stunner! ✨

We recently completed this resin driveway at a beautiful old police station in Dymock. The client chose resin for its brilliant permeability (no puddles, no drainage headaches) and we love how it turned out. We picked a red fleck to tie in with the gorgeous red brick of the building. It just works so well together!

The job took three days from start to finish, including groundworks and installing recessed manhole covers so they sit flush and out of sight. Small details that make a big difference to the overall finish.

Looked after properly, a resin drive like this can last 20-25 years, and it's low maintenance too, just keep it clean and it'll keep looking as good as day one.

This timelapse demonstrates the whole process so you can see it come together from start to finish! 🎥

What a cracking day out on the greens! ⛳

Huge thanks to Bence Building Supplies for putting on their annual golf day at Brickhampton Golf Course. 18 holes, glorious weather, and even better company. Add in a big BBQ and a few drinks to finish off, and what a fantastic day out.

We are proud to sponsor the 14th hole at Brickhampton as part of our community outreach, so make sure to look out for our green dinosaur on your next round.

Events like this are what it's all about. Getting out from behind the desk and off the tools for a day, catching up with the trade, and having a laugh with everyone who helps keep projects like ours running smoothly.

Thanks again to Bence for hosting, already looking forward to next year! ⛳

Project Spotlight: Master Suite Bungalow Extension

Located in Upton upon Severn, this project is a great example of how an extension does not always have to be about adding huge amounts of space. Sometimes, a relatively modest addition and some thoughtful reconfiguration can completely transform how a home works.

The property originally featured an ageing conservatory positioned in the centre of the rear elevation. This was demolished and replaced with a new extension built on a similar footprint, with the aim of creating a more practical and luxurious master bedroom arrangement.

One of the existing bedrooms in the bungalow was simply too small to function effectively. There was limited space for furniture and storage, and the layout was not making the best use of the available floorplan.

By replacing the conservatory with a new extension and reconfiguring the internal layout, we created a spacious new double bedroom alongside a dedicated dressing room. The former small bedroom was transformed into a bespoke dressing area complete with built-in wardrobes and a vanity unit, allowing the bedroom itself to remain uncluttered and feel like a true master suite.

The result is a home that feels significantly more spacious and practical without requiring a large extension. Dedicated storage, improved flow and a much more comfortable bedroom have completely changed how the property is used.

Completed in around eight weeks, this project demonstrates how intelligent design can often deliver just as much impact as additional square footage.

If you are considering an extension or renovation, feel free to get in touch.

🦖 You'll spot us at your next Cheltenham Town FC match! 🏟️

We're proud to have our new signage up at Cheltenham Town FC right there alongside the community that's supported us just as much as we hope to support them.

As a local business, backing local sport isn't just good PR, it's personal. It's about being part of something bigger than the jobs we do. It's about showing up for the town, the clubs, and the people who make our area what it is.

So next time you're at Whaddon Road, look up, you might just see a certain green dinosaur watching the game with you 👀

New builds, extensions, renovations, landscaping, groundworks, garden rooms, whatever you're planning, we're the local team ready to turn it into reality.
