Building Better

No middlemen & no inflated prices

Better communication

Smarter pricing

High-quality results

Quick and flexible turn-arounds

Created for change

We created Collective Build to change how things are done. Too often, clients end up refurbishing through expensive corporate firms who subcontract the work out again and again , adding layers of cost, confusion, and delays.

The trades people doing the jobs rarely get a say, and clients are left chasing for updates.

Collective Build flips that model.

We’re a co-operative of skilled, independent trades businesses who work together, as a collective. No middlemen. No markups. Just real clean work.

It puts control back in the hands of the people doing the work and the people paying for it.

That means you have multiple experts, top in their craft, working on your project, together.

Our Services

  • Worker wearing a yellow safety helmet and harness construction framing a wooden wall on a building under clear blue sky.

    General Build and Interior Fit Out

    We handle everything from partition walls and plastering to ceilings, joinery, flooring, and decorating. Whether it’s a full internal strip-out or a clean cosmetic refurb, our team delivers sharp, professional finishes across every trade.

  • Person wearing work gloves holds a black cable with three exposed wires in an industrial or construction setting.

    Mechanical & Electrical (M&E)

    Our electricians and plumbers work as part of the team from day one — covering lighting, power, data, HVAC, fire alarms, and plumbing. It’s all coordinated in-house so you’re not chasing separate contractors or dealing with gaps.

  • Modern dining and kitchen area with a wooden table, patterned pillows on a cushioned bench, open shelving with decorative items, and a kitchen with white cabinets.

    Fixtures, Fittings & Furniture

    We install kitchenettes, storage, and bespoke joinery, along with full washroom upgrades and fitted furniture. We make sure everything is practical, cleanly fitted, and ready to use from day one.

    External Works

    Need signage, paintwork, glazing, or roofing sorted while we’re there? We can handle external works too, keeping everything under one team, with one point of contact.

  • A yellow excavator demolishing a brick structure.

    Strip Out and Demolition

    Before we build, we clear. We remove old finishes, fittings, services, and ceilings safely and efficiently — prepping your space for a fresh start without the mess or delays.

  • A business meeting in a modern conference room with five people seated around a table, one person standing and pointing at a large digital screen displaying a colorful chart. The room has orange walls, horizontal blinds, and is viewed through a glass wall.

    Project Co-Ordination and Compliance

    We manage the job from start to finish — site setup, programme planning, health & safety, and building control. You get clear updates, clean handovers, and a job that’s done properly.
