The Transformation

A real APMBuild project — drag the slider left to see the original rear elevation, right for the finished build. No staged renders, no stock photography. Same camera angle, captured before the first hammer and after the last bolt.

EU materials Poland to Herefordshire

Direct EU Materials Supply

APMBuild routes high-performance construction materials from established European manufacturers directly to UK sites — insulation boards, AAC structural blocks, render systems, triple-glazed windows and doors. This often comes in below UK-equivalent pricing, with a like-for-like comparison on every quote, and raises the specification to the level used on European low-energy projects.

FAQ

Portfolio questions

Where the work is, how to see it, and what stands behind it.

Where are APMBuild's completed projects?

All completed projects shown here are in Herefordshire and on its borders — Gorsley, Dormington, Putley, Foy, Lea and Hole in the Wall around Ross-on-Wye and Hereford, the Saxon Gate refurbishment in Hereford itself, strip-footing foundations (permanent formwork) near Ledbury, and a rendered garden gym building in Newent on the Gloucestershire side.

Can I visit a completed project before hiring you?

Often, yes. Several past clients are happy to show their finished work by arrangement, and for larger enquiries we recommend it — photographs flatter everyone; site visits don't. Ask when you get in touch and we'll see what's practical near you.

Why are there no completed Passive House or EnerPHit projects here?

Because we haven't completed one yet, and we won't dress the portfolio up to suggest otherwise. EnerPHit-route deep retrofit and Passive House new build are services in development, with first projects being scoped — built on Passive House training, PHPP pre-assessment and a European component supply chain that are all in place today.

What warranty covers the work shown here?

Every APMBuild project carries a 24-month workmanship warranty, with manufacturer warranties passing through to the client — up to 50 years on roofing systems, up to 10 years on windows and doors, and up to 5 years on insulation systems. Handover includes full documentation.

Do you photograph and document every project like this?

Yes. Photographic site records are part of how we build — including the stages that get covered up, not just the finished rooms. Clients follow the whole record live through our Project Room portal during the build.
