Builders in Bearsden
MKS Construction delivers building projects across Bearsden and the wider East Dunbartonshire area. Bearsden is one of Glasgow's most sought-after residential areas, with a high proportion of larger detached and semi-detached properties — many of which offer significant scope for extensions, renovations and modernisation.
We're a Constructionline Gold and SSIP certified contractor, based in Kirkintilloch, with the accreditations and experience to work on higher-value residential properties where quality and project management matter.
What We Do in Bearsden
Extensions & Additions
Bearsden properties often sit on generous plots with space for substantial extensions — double-storey rear extensions, orangeries, garden rooms and wraparound builds. We manage the full project from architectural drawings and planning through to handover, working with East Dunbartonshire Council on permissions and building warrants.
High-End Renovations
Many Bearsden homes were built in the 1930s-60s and, while structurally sound, benefit from internal modernisation — opening up layouts, upgrading kitchens and bathrooms, improving insulation and energy performance, and refreshing finishes throughout. We coordinate all trades for a seamless renovation.
New Builds & Self-Builds
Plots do become available in and around Bearsden. We build bespoke homes with full QS cost management — budget setting, procurement, monthly cost reporting and final account. You know exactly where your money goes at every stage.
Kitchens & Bathrooms
Supply and installation of high-quality kitchens and bathrooms, including wet rooms. We manage plumbing, electrics, joinery, tiling, underfloor heating and finishing — one contractor from start to finish.
