This is the trade craft that holds a building together and the detail that makes it feel expensive. Our joiners, bricklayers and structural teams work to millimetre tolerances on both new build and period property.
Structural alterations are always carried out to an engineer's design, with temporary works, method statements and building control sign-off handled in-house.
From removing a load-bearing wall and installing steel beams, to matching brickwork on a Victorian facade, to fitting furniture-grade wardrobes and panelling — the same team, the same standard.
What you get when building & joinery is delivered properly, by one accountable team.
Joiners, bricklayers and masons with decades of experience, not general labour.
Every structural change is calculated, drawn and signed off.
Bricks, stone and mouldings sourced to blend with the existing building.
Joinery is measured, made and fitted for your space — no off-the-shelf compromises.

"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."

Yes. We arrange the structural engineer's calculations, install the specified steel and handle building warrant sign-off.
Per metre it costs more, but it uses every millimetre of an awkward space and lasts decades — which is why most clients find it better value overall.
Yes. We source reclaimed or colour-matched bricks and match the mortar mix and joint profile so new work reads as original.
Yes — Bearsden (G61) is our home area and where we complete most of our building & joinery work. We can usually survey within a few days, and because we are minutes away we keep site logistics, deliveries and skip placement tidy on residential streets like Kessington, Westerton and Canniesburn Toll.
Costs depend on size, structure and specification rather than postcode, so we price building & joinery from a measured survey and issue a fixed, itemised written quotation with a stage payment schedule. Bearsden and Glasgow projects are quoted on the same rates — there is no travel premium inside Greater Glasgow.
We deliver building & joinery across Bearsden, Glasgow, Milngavie, Paisley, Newton Mearns, Bishopbriggs, Giffnock, Kirkintilloch, Clydebank, Renfrew, East Kilbride, Hamilton and the surrounding Greater Glasgow towns, working from our Bearsden base with Bearsden and Glasgow as our main coverage.
It depends on the property and the council. We deal with East Dunbartonshire, Glasgow City, Renfrewshire, East Renfrewshire, West Dunbartonshire, South Lanarkshire building standards and planning departments, check your address against conservation area and permitted-development rules at survey, and prepare and submit any planning application or building warrant needed.
Yes. Housing stock across Bearsden, Milngavie and Glasgow's West End is mostly blonde or red sandstone, wet-dash render and natural slate, so we source matched materials and lime-compatible mortar rather than patching in cement or modern substitutes.
In Bearsden and Milngavie we can normally survey within 2 to 3 working days, and within about a week across Glasgow, Paisley and the wider area. Surveys and quotations are free and carry no obligation.
