Bunker Private
Your house. Our building site.
You keep your job, your family and your weekends. We take on the professional team, the trades, the money and the programme.

You keep your job, your family and your weekends. We take on the professional team, the trades, the money and the programme.
The honest bit
Eighteen months of your life, a budget that drifts by a number nobody will put in writing, and a dispute at the end with people you had no way of assessing. That is the failure mode, and it is a management problem rather than a taste problem. It is what Bunker Private is built to remove.
The middle is the part most people never see. It is the part we are hired for.
Accountability
We appoint the architect, quantity surveyor and engineers on scopes we have written, and we tender and let every trade package. When something slips, you hear it from us with the cost attached — not from three consultants pointing at each other.
What we take on
What your property can become, what it is likely to cost, what planning will accept, and whether the numbers justify it. Said plainly, before you commit.
Architect, quantity surveyor, structural and services engineers, planning and specialist consultants — appointed on written scopes so responsibility has no gaps in it.
Applications, conditions, building control and the regulatory grind, run by us and reported to you.
Packages defined and tendered to multiple trades, let on real contracts. You see what was quoted, by whom, and why we recommend one over another.
On site through the build. Sequencing, coordination, inspection as work proceeds, and problems solved before they reach you.
Changes priced before they are built. Valuations certified against work measured in place. Payment released against progress, never ahead of it.
Completion, commissioning, certificates, warranties, and snagging chased to the end rather than abandoned at ninety per cent.
Proof
Every Bunker project runs through BankBuild, our own project operating system, connecting procurement, contracts, costs, changes, programme and payments. It is why we can tell you what a change costs when you ask, rather than at the next valuation.

Track record
Alongside private work, Bunker develops its own residential schemes — buying the site, taking the planning risk, funding the build and selling the result. The Willows and The Barn at Stapleton were ours.
