Why Choose Us?

How We Manage Your Agricultural Building Project

Our process is designed to remove the stress of project management by providing a single point of contact for your entire build. We begin with a detailed site survey to assess the specific terrain, ensuring our agricultural groundworks and foundations provide a perfectly level and stable base for the structure. Following site preparation, we proceed to precise steel frame erection, choosing the best portal frame configuration to suit your operational needs.

Once the primary framework is secured, we move to cladding and roofing, installing high-quality, weather-resistant materials tailored to your building usage. By managing every stage internally, we ensure that the build is not only efficient but also maintains a high standard of finish. This integrated approach allows us to stay on schedule, whether we are constructing a new barn for winter housing or a seasonal storage facility.

Who We Are

Navigating Planning Permission and Compliance

One of the most common challenges for rural landowners is understanding local planning requirements. We specialise in guiding projects through the regulatory process, including Agricultural Permitted Development Rights under Part 6 of the General Permitted Development Order. We ensure every aspect of your build, from structural load-bearing calculations to site drainage, complies with current UK Building Regulations.

Being familiar with the specific requirements of the Chichester and West Sussex planning authorities allows us to provide a service that is both compliant and risk-free. By addressing these complexities early in the planning phase, we help avoid delays and ensure your new agricultural structure meets all safety and environmental standards from day one.
