Your price in 60 seconds

Start with two questions.

What you are building, and roughly how big. That is enough for a ballpark range from the same rate card we price real work with — and every detail you add after that narrows it.

before we start.

Every project comes with an itemised price, a named project manager, and a 12-month workmanship warranty on second-fix fittings. You pay weekly, against work already done — and nothing changes the price without your written approval.

The 2VP Certainty Package

The home you actually want, finished on the date in the contract — and you watch every day of it happen from your phone.

The late-delivery guarantee
£500 for every week we are late

We finish on the agreed date, or we pay you £500 for every week we are late.

The date is in the contract, and so is this. Only a variation you approve can move it.

Common questions

Everything you
need to know.

Your next step

Book a free Zoom call. Decide afterwards.

Talk your project through with us on a free Zoom call. If you want us to see it, the site visit is £550 with our advice, returned in full when you sign up for the whole project — and you get an itemised figure in writing, priced against the scope we actually surveyed. No obligation either way.

We’re not always the cheapest. If the lowest number wins, we may not be the right fit for you — and that’s genuinely fine.
