Trade packages built around plots, floors and programme.

New-build subcontract packages for South Wales housebuilding

We target defined work packages on housing developments, apartment schemes and contractor-led new-build projects. Packages can be reviewed as labour-only, daywork or price work, with labour planned around plot releases, floor handovers and actual ready work fronts.

Drylining, plastering and boarding packages

Interior packages can include metal stud partitions, plasterboard fixing, insulation, fire-rated boarding, MF ceilings, plastering and tape & jointing. Where the scope suits it, related trades can be coordinated rather than treated as disconnected gangs.

SFS, carpentry and external trade coordination

SFS, carpentry and brickwork opportunities can be considered as separate trade packages or as part of a wider sequenced scope. The correct order depends on design, access, inspection points, weather exposure and the contractor’s programme.

Plot-based and floor-based programming

New-build work succeeds when labour follows genuinely available areas. We review release dates, expected handover condition, material availability, access, preceding trades and follow-on requirements before agreeing mobilisation or increasing gang size.

First fix, second fix and finishing

Where a package is split into first fix, second fix and finishing stages, the scope and handover point for each stage should be clear. That helps commercial teams compare prices properly and helps site teams understand when each gang is expected to start and complete.

What to send for a price

For a useful tender review, send the latest drawings, specification, BOQ or measured quantities, programme, postcode, proposed start date, material responsibilities, plant/access arrangements and any package-specific preliminaries. If you are building a tender list, see our South Wales tender and supply-chain page.
