Design Philosophy

Our design philosophy is to produce a contemporary modern solution with an ecological conscience, to surpass our clients aspirations.

This recent design for a Cheshire Methodist Church typifies our approach.

About Us

Plus Design and Build are based in Derbyshire, but operate all over the United Kingdom from Cornwall to the north of Scotland. Historically, many of our buildings have been for leisure applications where our design skills and construction methods are particularly well suited, but in recent years we have often worked on more ecclesiastical, educational and retail buildings too. Swimming pools and leisure centres, both for individuals and commercial ventures, are a particular speciality.

Our contracts vary in size from £50,000 to £3m plus. We like to work very closely with our clients, understanding and developing their brief, to create a design to really wow them.

Providing these services in house means that we are able to keep design costs down to modest proportions and when we are later awarded the contract to build they become insignificant as a proportion of the overall build cost.

We always consider the environmental impact of our buildings, which are usually of a timber frame structure (from sustainable sources), well insulated for high thermal performance.   

Take a look some of the recent projects that we have designed and built around the UK both as swimming pools and other buildings. Hopefully there will be something to spark your imagination and we can start talking about your own project. If you already have a design in mind, then we would still be delighted to take a look at your drawings and provide you with a budget price to build it.
