Buxton Building Contractors Limited

Residential

Buxton has a proven track record of delivering high-specification private residential projects. Our focus on quality and exceeding clients' expectations is reflected in our completed developments, which stand as testaments to our capabilities.

Each private residence is unique and built with its own character in mind. Our team works closely with clients to ensure bespoke requirements are met while still offering value engineering and innovation to ensure the project is delivered to the highest standards in terms of both cost and quality.

Our experience spans a wide range of projects, from the construction of terraced houses to the reconstruction and refurbishment of listed buildings, apartments mixed with commercial units, luxury penthouses, and highly complex refurbishment projects for prestigious London estates such as The Bedford Estate, The Howard de Walden Estate, and Artesian plc.
