MJ Design & Building is a family-led English practice established in 1995, specialising in new-build private homes, sensitive refurbishment of period properties, and substantial extensions. Operating across Greater London, the Home Counties, and the English shires, the firm focuses on commissions where craftsmanship, programme certainty, and confidentiality are paramount. They pride themselves on a hands-on approach, engaging directly with clients, country-house architects, and family offices to realise residences of singular ambition.
Many projects are undertaken under non-disclosure agreements, with references furnished in confidence upon request. The practice maintains a narrow remit, delivering new-build country and town houses, interventions on Georgian, Regency, Victorian, and Edwardian properties (including listed buildings), and whole-house remodelling or extensions. They emphasize discretion, craftsmanship, programme certainty, compliance with regulations like CDM 2015, and continuity, being a family practice in its second generation.
Their team comprises directly engaged English tradesmen and carefully selected specialist subcontractors, ensuring high standards of delivery and site supervision.
