We’re a working shipyard based in Southampton offering a range of services from traditional marine restoration to bespoke joinery, steel fabrication and design-led interior projects. We take on everything from heritage vessels and yachts to commercial spaces and architectural commissions.
No. While our roots are in shipbuilding and restoration, our team also works on residential and commercial projects across the UK and internationally. We design and fabricate kitchens, staircases, furniture and architectural elements using the same care we bring to our marine work.
Our workshops and yard are in Southampton on the edge of the River Itchen. All work happens on site from the first cut to final fit-out.
Yes. We’ve shipped modular elements and built on site in Europe and the US. We’re experienced with international logistics, customs and installation in complex locations.
We work with private clients, architects, designers, developers and ship owners. Our work ranges from one-off commissions to multi-phase construction projects.
We’re happy to arrange visits by appointment. It’s a working site so please contact us in advance so we can show you around safely.
Yes. Our team includes in-house designers and we also collaborate closely with external architects and designers. Whether you have a full drawing package or just an idea, we can help develop it into something buildable.
Where possible, yes. We source and repurpose materials including pitch pine, teak, oak and mahogany — often from vessels, buildings or furniture with their own stories. Sustainability isn’t a bolt-on for us, it’s built into how we work.
Yes. We also understand the VAT implications of working on listed buildings and new builds and can advise clients on eligibility for reduced or zero-rated works where applicable.
Absolutely. Once we’ve got a good understanding of the scope, location and timeline, we’ll put together a tailored proposal. Some projects take a bit of back and forth to get right and we’re happy to talk things through.
That depends on the scale and complexity of the project. Some items take a few weeks, others need staged delivery over months. What we won’t do is rush things at the expense of quality.
Yes. We often join projects as part of a wider team and are used to coordinating with other trades and consultants.
We do. Training the next generation is a big part of what we stand for. If you’re interested in applying, keep an eye on our social channels or drop us a message.
