About Us

Southwood Building Contractors Limited was incorporated in October 2007 with Mr. Lee Southon as the sole director. At the time Bob Southon (Lee's father) was a partner in a separate construction company which he co-formed in 1988, this company received several awards for their work including twice winning a national gold award as sub-contractor of the year. In 2009 Bob Southon joined Lee as a co-director of Southwood bringing with him a client base of major developers which includes McCarthy and Stone, Churchill's and Colten Developments.

Referrals play a key part in the success of the company together with recommendations from architects, and since its formation the company has gone from strength to strength.

Southwood offers customers the reassurance that they are dealing with a fully insured reputable company with trained operatives who work to the latest Health and Safety procedures.
