Featured Reviews for Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ipswich.

Coulby Interiors
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ipswich.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 January 2013
“We recently hired Rebecca to redesign our kitchen and dining room. Rebecca provided a fantastic service from start to finish and we are so happy with the final results. Having a complete kitchen redesign and decoration of hall and lounge 3 weeks before christmas may seem ambitious and a little crazy but Rebecca and her team made the whole project as stress free as possible. I cannot recommend Rebecca and her team highly enough.”

Bryan Turner Kitchens Ltd
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ipswich.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 March 2024
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Bryan Turner Kitchens, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional!!”
Westbury Garden Rooms
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ipswich.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 April 2016
“We added an orangery to extend our existing kitchen to create a large open plan room for kitchen, dining and seating. We chose Westbury mainly because we wanted a bespoke solution, they clearly had lots of experience of what does (and doesn't) work and they came up with designs that we really liked which brought to life and greatly improved our own half-baked ideas! We used Westbury to do everything....design, planning permission, building works (foundations, knocking through etc), building the orangery, installing underfloor central heating (including most of the plumbing), lighting and other electrics, internal floor tiling and they made and installed various bespoke fittings to help integrate the 'old' and 'new' areas into a single living space. We found all the Westbury staff to be friendly and professional and importantly they kept us well informed throughout. Most have been with the company for years and are passionate about doing a good job. Any building work always comes with an element of disruption and the real test of any firm is how they deal with the unforeseen issues that inevitably crop up - we didn't have many, but all were sorted promptly and professionally. Overall the whole design and build experience was a pleasure and the end result has exceeded our expectations.”
SBC Services (East Anglia) Ltd
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ipswich.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 November 2020
“We first used SBC earlier this year for a fairly major renovation of the downstairs of our period cottage. As well as expert advice on design choices, Syd and his team were able to use their wealth of specialist knowledge to advise us on the more technical elements of working within an old building. Having Syd and his team here was an absolute pleasure and they were totally respectful of our space and our neighbours - not playing loud radio or music and managing their time spent drilling around my hours of home working. The project turned out better than we could have imagined and we were constantly consulted along the way. Having undertaken smaller projects since we have gone back to SBC without a second thought and will absolutely continue to do so in the future.”
KB property renovations
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ipswich.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 February 2016
“Keith Barke did a great job for us, converting a garage into a living room and a small bedroom into a study. The major job was the conversion and though we knew roughly what we wanted, Keith came up with excellent ideas on such things as the heating and lighting that really improved the final design and functionality of the room. He also liaised with the council on the required building regulations. The smaller room is an awkward shape but, again, Keith came up with a smart solution involving a bespoke desk that has made the best use of the space - it wasn't something we could have visualised without his expertise. Very friendly and attentive service - not just Keith but all of his team - and the whole job was completed on time and on budget. Suffice to say, we're very pleased, and we're just about to use the firm again on another room. Highly recommended.”
Cavanagh Construction Ltd
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ipswich.
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars18 August 2015
“I have worked with Cavanagh Construction for the last two years and found their services resourceful and professional. Quotations are competitive and building programmes realistic and generally maintained. Clients remain happy with the site staff and MD Ben is always happy to accommodate modifications and contribute to creating a successful solution for all parties benefit. Looking forward to the continued good working relationship with Ben, his operatives and sub-contractors. Greg Nichols Dip arch RIBA For BDA”

When building a new house, people often turn to architects to kick off the project. However, a different model is becoming quite popular: design-build. Instead of dividing tasks between separate architecture and construction companies, you can hire a full-service firm to design and build your entire Ipswich, Suffolk, UK project, from initial sketches through final construction. Learn more about how to choose the right design-build construction for your home project below:

What is a design-build firm?


Design-build companies take on the responsibilities of architects, contractors and construction companies, all under one roof. These full-service firms focus on a streamlined process — from the initial design to the estimating phase to physical construction — in the hope of creating an efficient experience for both the client and the company. Because the entire project is happening within one company, design-build firms are able to overlap the design and construction phases of the project, which oftens speeds up the project significantly. In addition, these firms work to minimize risks for the project owner through single-point responsibility contracts. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or architect to help create the exact look you want. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of design-build firms: Interior Designers & Decorators, Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers, Architects & Building Designers, Photographers.

Before deciding on a design-and-build firm, think about what you want from your new home. Do you want a large kitchen for entertaining? Do you need several bedrooms for children and guests? Do you want a finished basement for extra space or storage? Look for aSuffolk design-builder who specializes in the areas you're looking for. Budget is obviously a determining factor in the outcome of your project. To make sure you stay within your means, consider making a must-have list and a wish list. Gauge where the estimates are falling to determine which design-and-build contract can realistically strike the balance between the two.

Questions to ask a prospective design-builder:


  • How long have you been in the business?
  • How many projects like mine have you completed?
  • Who will be working on the project?
  • Are the workers employees or subcontractors?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Who is your designer, and what are his or her qualifications?
  • Are your employees licensed and insured?
  • How do you charge, and what does that include?
  • Can you give me a written estimate?
  • What do your services include?
  • When can this job get done?
  • What happens when cost exceeds the budget? What about changes to materials or labor pricing?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any important considerations or concerns you foresee with this project?
