Director
CurrentI am a highly experienced Construction Site Manager with over 40 years of management experience running building projects and my own companies across the UK. I worked in the Self Build housing industry for around 15 years, as a House Designer / Site Manager, running my own companies in the North West and Wales. I was the "Grand Designs" (TV programme) Self Build Expert for around 5 years from around 2010, and would attend their large shows twice a year presenting seminars on the main stage and advising self builders on their projects. I have written two books (both available on Amazon): "Self Build Simplified" and "151 Things Every Self Builder Should Know". Around 10 years ago, I was invited by the UK Government to sit on their specialist "Self Build Panel" under Grant Shapps, where our task was to find ways to expend the industry and make it simpler and more accessible. Since then, I have been been designing and building uniquely designed new homes in South Wales.In 2021 I designed a new "fall arrest" cushioning system which, when launched (early 2025), will reduce injuries and save lives across multi industries globally in numerous areas including: Construction / Fire Rescue / Sports / Armed Forces Training / Motorsports (and others). This system has received backing from "The Royal Academy of Engineering" and "Liverpool City Region".I am also overseeing the final project for my "Bespoke House Design / Construction" company in South Wales, where I will be building 4 large detached houses.
