Built like we live here.
Aldergate takes on three builds a year. Yours gets a named site foreman, a weekly photo report, and a finish date we treat like a promise, because it is one.
A build should not be the worst year of your life. That is a choice builders make, and we made the other one.
Fixed scope before we start. A weekly photo report every Friday, whether the week was good or hard. One number to call, answered by someone who was on your site that day. And a snagging list we work through until you stop finding things, not until we do.
Three a year. These are the latest.
The Orchard House, Harpenden
A new five-bed family home on a mature plot, clay brick and charcoal frames, passive-grade insulation throughout.
Whitstone Barn, near St Albans
A listed barn taken back to the frame and rebuilt as a light-filled four-bed, conservation officer signed off first time.
The Garden Wing, Radlett
A whole-house renovation and rear wing while the family stayed in residence. Dust screens, Friday tidy-downs, kept promises.
From drawing to home. Drag it.
The drawing
The home
Four stages. No surprises.
We meet on your plot or in your house, talk honestly about budget, and tell you if we are the wrong fit.
Drawings, engineering and a line-by-line cost you can read. The number we sign is the number you pay.
Your foreman, your photo report every Friday, your one number to call.
Snagging until you stop finding things, and a two-year workmanship guarantee in writing.
The date we shake on is the date you move in.
We hold one build slot for spring. If your project deserves it, the first conversation costs nothing and happens on your site, not in our office.
