Efficient, modern design

Modern design

On our developments, currently over 80% of construction waste is recycled and we use low energy light fittings, together with dual flush toilets and low flow bathroom fittings. Our construction standards and the amount of insulation we include within our homes, means that they are more energy efficient than most older properties. This means the central heating system has less to do each day.
