Welcome to SCL, the building company for life…

At SCL Construction Ltd we deliver high quality building projects across London and the South East. With years of domestic and commercial experience under our belt, no job is too big or small. We can build anything, whether you need your property renovated or an extension added on, whether you need to modernise and enlarge your office building or even if you’re looking to add multiple classrooms at a school.

If you’re embarking on a new building project and perhaps unsure of where to start, then get in touch with us today. We’d be happy to discuss what we can do for you, including a site visit, quote, and a review of your plans.

Great service from start to finish

The perfect build starts with a consultation with one of our team. We can help and advise you on planning your space, where we’ll discuss with you factors such as room function, materials, access to the site and budget. From there, we’ll pass you over to our in-house design team, who are there to ensure you have total oversight of your project and can envision what it will look like before building gets underway. They’ll make sure your project is delivered on time and within budget, and to the highest standard.

If you don’t yet have an architect or building plans, fear not. We can provide a full service from initial plans through to the last finishing touches.

Our domestic building services

At SCL Construction, we know just how daunting it can be to undertake a home renovation or extension. Our domestic clients are very different to our commercial clients. To start with, the project they’re embarking on is not just a building, it is their home, and it represents everything they’ve worked for, it holds the dearest of memories with their families and it is also their future. It’s a nerve-wracking time, especially as building work can be intrusive and expensive and the client wants the work to be perfect.

That’s why we’re the people for the job – we’re understanding in our work. Your house isn’t just a building site to us, it’s your home and a place to be respected, and we know how much this kind of work means to our clients. There’s no better feeling that seeing the excitement, relief and appreciation on our clients’ faces when they walk into their newly finished home which we complete in good time and to the best standard. We do our best along the way to keep our clients aware of how long a project will take, and how much it will be and update them as soon as we can should anything change. We will also minimise the upheaval to your living arrangements as best we can.

To withstand the test of time, a SCL home will always be built to a very high standard and where possible, incorporate the latest environmental technologies. Thanks to our in-house Plan and Build Service (link), we can swiftly deal with all aspects of planning approval and building control.

Our speciality – Passivhaus

Passivhaus – or passive house – is a German standard for building construction. Passivhaus is a rigorous, voluntary standard for energy efficiency in a building, which reduces the building’s ecological footprint. It results in ultra-low energy buildings that require little energy for space heating or cooling. Instead, heat is obtained from the sun, the people within, appliances and extracted air. With a comfortable heating throughout without traditional heating systems, Passivhaus is ideal for most modern building designs.

Most building companies are traditional and don’t know where to start when it comes to Passivhaus, but at SCL Construction, we have our own specialist team which includes a certified Passivhaus tradesperson who can help your property achieve the gold standard for energy efficiency. We can cater for both domestic properties and commercial properties.

As businesses become more environmentally conscious and try to save money on energy bills, our Passivhaus services are in more demand than ever. Read more on our Passivhaus services here and get in touch with our expert team to find out more.

Commercial construction services

Commercial construction takes up a large proportion of our work at SCL Construction and we’ve worked on all kinds of buildings. We will always tailor our building work to our clients’ needs and budgets and even on the smallest of budgets we will always provide high quality exteriors and interiors for our clients.

Very often we are engaged in commercial projects where the business needs to remain fully operational whilst the work takes place. Agile management allows us to tailor our work schedule to ensure minimum disruption to your business, including working outside of business hours.

Working seamlessly alongside architects, project managers and other on-site contractors, we ensure 100% client satisfaction and quality are built in.

• Shop fitting: High streets are constantly evolving and we support business owners and councils in this ever-changing climate. Our shop fits and fit-outs ensure both practicality and aesthetics are taken into account.
  Property refurbishment: We can help, whether you need a property spruce up, modernising throughout with new flooring and features, or you have an old or a listed property which needs a new lease of life.
• Schools: SCL Construction is renowned for its fantastic reputation within this sector. We’ve worked on numerous educational facilities over the years and we’ve become the go-to for this kind of work. We’ve built them from scratch and worked on improving existing buildings. We can complete work to tight deadlines during school holidays.
• Sports, leisure and entertainment: We’ve worked on various sports and entertainment facilities including night clubs, swimming pools, churches, libraries, sports halls and community centres. We know that each building needs an individualised bespoke plan, and we’re adept at working on these for our clients.
• Social housing: Social housing is incredibly important for people in the UK as the shortage of housing increases across the country. We are well versed in the particular requirements necessary for the construction of affordable housing and work with many housing associations. We meet the residents where possible and address any issues they may have.
