Newton Mearns is largely detached and semi-detached family housing with good-sized plots, so the work we are asked for here leans towards larger projects: two-storey and wraparound extensions, garage conversions, open-plan kitchen and dining reconfigurations, and full refurbishments of homes bought to be reworked.
We deliver the whole scope with one team — design and planning, structural work, roofing, joinery, building services and external works — so a G77 project has a single programme and a single point of accountability instead of separate trades you have to coordinate.
