Across Glasgow we work on everything from West End tenement flats and Southside terraces to detached family homes in the suburbs. Tenement work brings its own demands — close access, shared roofs, original cornice and sash-and-case windows — and we plan each project around those realities rather than treating a flat like a new build.
For houses in Glasgow the most common briefs are rear extensions that open a kitchen onto the garden, full refurbishments after a purchase, and roofing and rendering work that has been deferred. Every service on this site is available city-wide, delivered by one team so structural, electrical, plumbing and finishing trades are sequenced properly.
Also covering nearby: West End, Hyndland, Jordanhill, Shawlands, Newlands, Dennistoun, Cathcart, Anniesland.

Glasgow pricing reflects tenement and terraced access: scaffolding, close protection and shared-title roof work all affect cost more than in suburban streets.

"LK Design Construction transformed our dusty attic into a stunning master bedroom. The team was punctual, polite, and the finish quality is hotel-standard. They handled all the council permits too, which was a huge relief."
