Founder Adrian shows one of his own developments benefitting from HBXL software
As a business owner, taking on the job of constructing a new
build, adding an extension, or even fitting a bathroom brings with it
responsibilities, and invariably time pressures and financial issues.
So the more help you can get - to be sure your costs are
correct, the project will be profitable, all the health and safety measures are
in hand, that everyone and everything will be in the right place at the right
time, that you’ll get paid – the better!
Momentum is building... the signs of growth in the construction sector are there.
Things are looking up! The UK economy expanded by 0.6% in the second quarter according to the initial estimate of GDP published by the ONS. The latest RICS UK Residential Market Survey shows a broad-based improvement in sentiment with the New Buyer Enquiries net balance climbing to its best level in nearly four years. Alongside this, both the price and sales expectation series are recording strongly positive readings with the firmer tone being visible to most parts of the country.

'Light-touch' planning regulations for conservatories and extensions
For the next 3 years more households should feel able to have building work done thanks to some relaxation in the planning regulations introduced by the government on 30 May 2013. Which is good news for the building sector! It has been introduced nationally to encourage development to take place and speed
up its delivery by removing local authority control - all in an attempt to revive the
economy.
