Supply Chain Headaches

One of the biggest headaches for the UK building industry both before and since Covid-19 remains the pace of the international supply chain.

Despite those in charge’s best efforts on the high seas, cargo ship hijackings have not subsided either. There also appears to be a never-ending backlog on orders being produced due to war, as well as a genuine basic lack of labour across the globe. Plus with new regulations popping up all over the place since Brexit, thinking ahead and pre-ordering the materials needed to complete projects here in the United Kingdom has become second nature, part of our day to day new business acumen.

Forewarned is forearmed and here at Lexden Builders we regularly pre-order difficult to get or premium materials in anticipation of upcoming projects that have not even been confirmed, confident that they will be used where and when possible if not for their original purpose. This is to ensure that our business cogs keep turning, and that our customer satisfaction remains as great as it has always been, despite the climate of the world around us.

Here at Lexden Builders we pride ourselves not only of the turn-key finishes we provide our extensive portfolio of satisfied customers, but a seamless concept to completion business strategy for each and every project we undertake.

We may have the perfect solution for you because we understand that them having to sell up and fork out thousands on care home or nursing home fees may not have been the plan A, and your loved one may also want to stay with you in their later years.

We understand that conversions and extensions especially, are a real headache for the homeowner, already in disarray due to the build or in desperate need of the spaces we are creating, so we always go above and beyond to ensure that we stay within the timeframe of the project wherever possible, even if it has meant that we have had to think very far ahead and had to store the materials required to get the job done right and on time.

If you have a building project in mind, no matter the size, and you want to be assured of the perfect finish, why don’t you get in touch with Steve and the team for a chat about how we can ensure that your restoration and renovation dreams don’t become nightmares.
