Taking on a construction project usually means juggling several different specialists, a designer, a structural engineer, a builder, and hoping they all agree with each other. DGR Homes works differently. As a design and build company, we manage the whole process under one roof, from the first drawings through to the finished structure, so the project stays consistent from start to finish.

We work across London and the surrounding areas on both residential and commercial projects, and every job gets the same level of attention whether it’s a single structural alteration or a full refurbishment.

Design & Build

Design and build means the design and the construction sit with the same team, rather than being handed between separate companies who’ve never spoken to each other. We start with your brief, develop it into workable drawings, and carry the project through to construction ourselves. That continuity matters: a detail that gets missed between a designer and a builder on a split contract is far less likely to slip through when both stages run through DGR Homes, one of the design and build contractors London property owners turn to when they want a single point of responsibility.

Structural Works

Structural work consists of the parts of a building that are meant to hold everything up like walls that support the load, beams, foundations as well as openings that require adequate support after they have been changed.

Making a hole in the wall or extending the floor does not only mean getting a sapper to come in and do the demolition; you also need some calculations, the right sort of materials, and finally a confirmation that the house is safe after all these changes have been made. We do all structural changes with that attention to detail from the very beginning that planning stage is, not some add-on after a job is over.

Refurbishments

Refurbishments can involve anything from giving a tired interior a new lease of life to doing a complete strip-out and reconstruction behind the same old front. On the commercial front, commercial refurbishment projects normally have either to take place whilst a business is operating or against the clock because a handover date is looming, and therefore we arrange the order of the work accordingly. As a building contractor for commercial purposes, we naturally are at a point where we are able to manage and coordinate the tradesmen on a timetable that is suitable to a client’s ongoing business needs as opposed to only being a building construction time ‍ ‌‍ ‍‌table. 

Our Approach

We start every project with a proper site visit and a clear scope of work, rather than pricing from assumptions. As a construction company, UK clients can stay in contact throughout, we keep communication direct: you’ll know what stage the project is at, what’s coming next, and who to speak to if something needs a decision.
