If you’ve viewed the impressive high rise developments in the Vision Construct property portfolio, you’ll know many of these new builds were completed in and around London. Over the years, we’ve learnt an inordinate amount about laying deep foundations to support heavyweight buildings. We’ve also gained an invaluable understanding of what it takes to lay foundations with minimal disruption to city life. Here’s a little of what we know.

Basement dig outs are rarely out of the news in London, as hundreds of homeowners add value to their prime property with a subterranean extension. For Vision Construct meanwhile, basement dig outs tend to be on a larger scale. With space at a premium in vast urban developments of apartments and townhouses, we’re frequently tasked with building underground car parks. Find out how we overcome 2 of the most common excavation challenges

A recent study by Transparency Market Research reports that while Europe is leading the world in finding solutions to construction debris, the global volume of demolition waste is set to escalate. At Vision Construct, we believe that recycling a demolished component, however sustainable, shouldn’t compromise on the quality and longevity of a build. Here are 3 ways you can strike a balance.

Do you have the perfect piece of land to develop but no investment partner? Are you looking for a builder to bring your construction project to life? Or perhaps you need to create a buzz around a new build in progress? Whatever stage you’re at, you’ll find a spectacular set of CAD designs, some detailed floor plans and a range of elevations will hold appeal for potential stakeholders. Read on to find out why.
