New Build Homes Across Glasgow & Central Scotland

MKS Construction builds bespoke new homes across Glasgow, Kirkintilloch, East Dunbartonshire and Scotland's Central Belt. From self-build projects to multi-unit residential developments, we deliver the full build — groundworks through to handover — with one team and one point of contact.

What we build

  • Self-build homes — your design, built to your specification. We work with your architect or can recommend one

  • Timber kit erections — we have extensive experience erecting timber frame kits for new homes and extensions, connecting new structures to existing buildings

  • Multi-unit developments — plots of 2-10+ homes for private developers and landowners

  • Replacement dwellings — demolition of the existing property and construction of a new home on the same site

Our Capabilities

Our directors bring hands-on experience from both residential and commercial sectors. Marc has overseen numerous timber kit builds for new homes and double-storey extensions. Mark's QS background means every project is properly priced, measured, and managed against budget.

We handle all trades in-house or through trusted subcontractors:

  • Foundations and groundworks

  • Structural steelwork and blockwork

  • Timber frame erection and carpentry

  • Roofing (pitched, flat, and trussed)

  • Plumbing, heating and electrics

  • Plastering, tiling and decoration

  • Kitchen and bathroom installation

  • External works, drainage and landscaping

The Build Process

  1. Initial consultation — We discuss your plans, budget, and timescales. If you've got drawings, we'll price from those. If not, we'll help you get to that stage

  2. Detailed quotation — An itemised breakdown so you can see exactly where your money goes. No hidden costs

  3. Pre-construction — Building warrant applications, site setup, and programme planning

  4. Construction — Regular site meetings, progress updates, and transparent cost reporting throughout

  5. Completion — Snagging, completion certificate, and handover with all documentation and warranties

Why Choose MKS for Your New Build?

  • QS-led delivery — With a qualified Quantity Surveyor as director, your budget is managed properly from day one. No nasty surprises

  • All trades, one team — You deal with one contractor, not ten different tradesmen

  • Constructionline Gold & SSIP certified — We meet the standards demanded by major clients and insurers

  • Central Belt coverage — Based in Kirkintilloch, we work across Glasgow, Edinburgh and everything in between

Many of our clients also come to us for interior fit-out — from high-end kitchens and bathroom installations to full decoration and finishing. If you're at an earlier stage and want to understand the costs involved in extending an existing property rather than a new build, our guide on house extension costs in Glasgow is a useful starting point.
