Our Service

Many budgets may not allow for the cost of a builder, however, embarking on a self-build journey without the relevant expertise can be an extremely daunting task. At Arkon, we essentially act as your builder without the associated costs. Our approach offers value to our clients whilst also providing the relevant tools necessary to deliver a successful project.

How You Save

Every house is unique; therefore, it is impossible to provide a quotation without an initial consultation. However, we promise our clients value for money and competitive pricing to deliver your project with the attention to detail that goes beyond a traditional builder. We represent you as our client therefore your best interest is our best interest.

Research has proven that a direct labour build can save you in the region of 20-30% on the cost of appointing a builder. Dealing with trades and suppliers on a regular basis ensures we get the best possible rates when going to the market. Our loyalty rewards you, ensuring each saving is passed directly on to our clients leading to significant savings on the costs of labour and material. This can then be offset against our project management fee meaning our cost to you is more than justified. Our wealth of experience ensures your project runs smoothly, avoiding delays or cost implications due to our ability to pre-empt many issues before they arise. Your project manager will ensure trades complete works to the highest standard and within the agreed timeframe. Trusting us with your project allows you to continue with your busy life without the stress and pressure often associated with a self-build project.

Often times, there are aspects of the build which you may choose to re-visit in the future, whether it be electric gates, additional lighting, or your dream patio area. By considering potential adjustments in advance, we help you integrate any desired changes seamlessly and cost-effectively as your needs evolve over time.
