Ambitious plans demand an experienced team that is dedicated to realising your vision. We are specialists in complex, high-quality construction projects, offering service and results that meet the expectations of the most discerning clients. We work together with leading architects and designers, throughout London and the southern counties.
The quality of our finished projects is testament to our focus on each element of the building process. From cost management and procurement, through to programming, site management and the robust construction details we employ for maximum longevity, a culture of care runs through all we do.
Meticulous organisation and proactive communication are central to the way we work, as are the latest technology and software, which we integrate throughout our operations.
We know it’s about more than the results – the journey has to be right also. For us, every project is a collaboration with you and your design team, who share our goal of delivering an exemplary finished building. We make personal service a priority throughout, from day one through to final delivery and beyond.
Our years of working this way are reflected in the long-standing relationships we enjoy with both clients and architects today.
We’ve built a team and a select list of partners we can trust to deliver the success of your project, and our business. They’re people who take pride in every step – before, during and after the project.
We are committed to the continuous development of our team. By identifying individual needs and investing in training, we make sure everyone adds to their skillset, and grows professionally as a leader in their field.
We are proud of the following accreditations, which reflect our standing as a progressive and sustainable fine building company.
Hale is a Chartered Building Company. The internationally recognised charter acknowledges our professional development, rigorous processes, ethical practice and unrelenting standards. As part of this exclusive group, we garner support and inspiration from fellow members and can contribute to positive change across the industry.
As a member of the Federation of Master Builders, Hale is recognised as a quality construction company that actively enhances opportunities and champions the best for our industry and customers.
To ensure Hale stays up to date with health and safety practice and policy, we are a Safe Contractor. The Alcumus Safe Contractor Safety Schemes in Procurement (SSIP) and PAS91 contractor accreditation scheme ensures we meet the requirements around health and safety, equal opportunities, diversity, operational quality, and environmental management practices.
As part of our commitment to achieving the net zero target across construction by 2050, and being a more sustainable builder, we are a carbon neutral company. We advise our clients and choose low-carbon sustainable alternatives where we can and run our business as sustainably as possible.
We recognise the need for everyone to consider their carbon footprint. We have achieved carbon neutral certification with our own offices, and are able to assess the footprint of the projects we work on.
As a business working with high-quality properties, we feel it’s important to remember those less fortunate. This is why we make an annual donation to St Mungo’s homeless charity, to help those without a building to call their home.
Director
