Who we are

Cropston Contracts Ltd.

Cropston Contracts is a family run company specialising in new build houses and public sector construction in Leicestershire. We have over ten years in the industry and the experience to deliver projects that meet your brief and your budget.

We develop our own sites as well, and we bring the same commercial discipline to work we carry out for clients. Whether you are building from your own plans, extending a house, or appointing a contractor for a publicly funded scheme, the approach is the same. Understand the constraints, price the job honestly, manage it properly.

We use local suppliers and subcontractors we know and trust, which is how every part of a job gets finished to the same standard.

How we operate

Three things we hold to.

Price it honestly

An itemised quotation with the assumptions stated and provisional sums marked. If something is uncertain we say so at the start rather than halfway through.

Manage it properly

Directly supervised site teams, a settled local supply chain, and one point of contact who knows the job rather than a call centre that does not.

Stand behind it

Warranty registration, building control sign off, and a defects period during which we stay contactable and accountable.

Credentials

Independently assessed and registered.

Certificates and insurance details are available on request for any client who needs them for procurement or peace of mind.

CHASHealth and safety competence independently accredited under the Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme. This meets the SSIP standard used across public sector frameworks.
ConstructionlineRegistered on the UK's main procurement and supply chain register. Our company, financial and compliance information is held and verified there, which shortens PQQ and SQ stages.
ICW new build warrantyTen year structural warranty cover for new build homes through Independent Consultants Warranty. The policy is issued on completion and transfers with the property.
