"An A team of subcontractors and specialist craftsmen"
Having an existing successful working relationship with Glossbrook, we felt that they would be the best choice to construct our forever home in The New Forest. Confident enough that no other contractor was considered, we were happy to negotiate an exclusive agreement.The detail, for this unique development meant a lot to us. Richard and his team certainly delivered. After three years on site, including pandemic delays, the job was completed to the highest of standards. From Project Manager to labourer and everyone in between, the project was handled with extreme professionalism and respect for our home. An A team of subcontractors and specialist craftsmen were employed ‘who did Glossbrook proud’ Two very happy customers who wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Glossbrook for potential projects, large, small or unique.
"It has been a pleasure to work together"
Thank you Glossbrook for making our first building project such a success! It has been a pleasure to work together and I have appreciated the excellent advice and guidance provided throughout the build process. The finished property is wonderful and is hopefully a great foundation for many future projects. I wouldn’t want to work with anyone else!!
"From day one, the site has been incredibly well run"
We are delighted with our choice of contractor in Glossbrook Builders Ltd. They have provided an entirely professional service for the duration of our most recent construction project. From day one, the site has been incredibly well run and Glossbrook have continually demonstrated their determination to execute the build with pride and enthusiasm. We have been impressed with their strong communication throughout and the finished product speaks for itself with a collection of very high quality apartments which buyers are proud to now call home. We look forward to moving on to future projects with Glossbrook to build upon what is already an impressive track record and would not hesitate to recommend their services.
"Very Good Standard"
We appointed Glossbrook to construct a 5-storey block of 24 flats for us in Poole, Dorset. The project was completed to a very good standard, and we found working with all their departments to be professional, easy, and enjoyable. We would not hesitate to recommend Glossbrook.
"Glossbrook have been an absolute delight to work with"
Boultbee appointed Glossbrook as main contractor to build 36-luxury apartments located immediately adjacent to the Parkstone Golf Club in the heart of the exclusive area of Canford Cliffs, Dorset. Glossbrook have been an absolute delight to work with. They have been an immensely dedicated team and have shown a great deal of flexibility during the build and whilst working around our early occupiers. If only there were a Glossbrooks here in London as we would not hesitate to work with the team on projects in the Capital.
"Impressed with build quality."
Over recent years, Glossbrook has built, or worked on, a number of properties for my family’s Companies. The largest project to date was ‘Kingsland’ in Milford-on-Sea where an old nursing home was to be demolished to make way for 3 quite substantial houses. This was new territory for us as we hadn’t built at this scale before and we went into the project with some trepidation, not least as we were in the depths of winter and the most appalling weather to commence with. Throughout the project we were promptly and accurately advised by our colleagues at Glossbrook in view of mutual expectations and timings culminating in a successful project in which two of the three houses were sold prior to completion of build. The purchasers of both houses were impressed with build quality. Importantly to us, there seems to be an ethos at Glossbrook of providing a detailed cost estimate and then sticking to it.
"Thanks guys!"
Glossbrook, you made it so simple from start to finish. Your team made the project run so smoothly and on time I hope that this is a partnership that can grow into the future. Thanks guys!
"We were very happy with the whole process"
We would hereby like to thank you for the professional manner in which you managed our 3 new build projects for West Hill Road and Holdenhurst Road in Bournemouth.

We would have absolutely no hesitation in referring you to any of our clients.

"The team offered support to find creative solutions"
From initial enquiry through to completion, dealing with Glossbrook’s management team has resulted in a thankful experience. All staff members have come across in a very professional and attentive manner. We jointly progressed through pre-construction activities and the team offered support to find creative solutions to problems that may have stopped others. Acting as the main contractor has worked especially well and demonstrates their local relationships and admiration from others in their field. Moving onto the construction phase was a delight- especially in the wider environment over the last few years. I really landed in safe hands with a high spec top end product completed within budget. I really look forward to larger projects with Glossbrook and the team through 2023 and beyond.

"Addis Homes has worked with Glossbrook on numerous sites to date"
Addis Homes has worked with Glossbrook on numerous sites to date. Glossbrook have always delivered the build on time and budget but perhaps more importantly the quality is excellent. This has made it much easier to sell our units when potential purchasers can see the quality that has gone into the build. Addis Homes would highly recommend Glossbrook to carry out any build.
"It was one of the best decisions we’ve made"
We chose Glossbrook to build our dream family home in part because they were the lowest fixed price bidders but also on the back of a strong recommendation from our architects and we had been impressed by a number of projects they had recently built. In hindsight it was one of the best decisions we’ve made. Every one of the Glossbrook team we have worked with has not only been extremely professional but even more importantly to us, they have been really nice people to work with. They say that the test of a good relationship is what happens when there is an “issue”. Well, we only had one “issue” and the Glossbrook team dealt with it quickly and above all very fairly – to our complete satisfaction. We now have our dream, a fantastic ultra high quality family home built on time and on budget (except of course for my wife’s late changes!) If we ever decide to build another we can’t envisage not using Glossbrook.
"The build was on budget and on time, taking into account the changes we made"
Glossbrook built our house fully within the agreed contract specification. The build was on budget and on time, taking into account the changes we made. After sales service has been excellent. The finished house is of the highest quality and it is very evident that there was great attention to detail. Genny and I are thoroughly enjoying living in Trafalgar. We cannot thank Glossbrook enough for having done a truly super job.
"Throughout the contract we enjoyed a transparent and uncomplicated relationship"
We are pleased to have worked with Glossbrook on the delivery of our prestigious development of two luxury homes in Lakeside Road. Having developed over 200 homes during the past 20 years, we understand the importance of working with a main contractor that can be trusted to deliver the highest quality with the minimum of complication. Throughout the contract we enjoyed a transparent and uncomplicated relationship and thereafter Glossbrook’s follow up was faultless.
"Build to the highest and exacting standards"
Construction with a main contractor for us is simple enough:
1. Trusting relationship
2. Concise and clear communication
3. Build to the highest and exacting standards.
4. Finish on time.
5. Keep to the agreed budget
Glossbrook deliver with ease.

Glossbrooks have been fantastic. Their knowledge, experience and attention to detail are to be admired. Their staff are some of the most accommodating and approachable people I’ve had the
pleasure of working with.
"We are delighted with the result"
Having appointed Glossbrook for the first time on our luxury apartment block on Southbourne Overcliff Drive, we are delighted with the result and impressed with the quality of the finish. The team were professional and diligent throughout and we would not hesitate to recommend them and appoint them to future projects.
"Glossbrook are a professional team"
Richard and his team at Glossbrook are a professional team who are a pleasure to work with. I must say that at all times they were easy to deal with, they built 9 houses for us at the former Ringwood Police Station site and dealing with tremendous amounts of rain at the start of 2020 and then Covid they managed to keep the build moving forward and to a good standard. They are a joy because they are relaxed and non contractual and although we had a JCT D&B in place it sat in the corner collecting dust. We will be working with Glossbrook again in the future I have no doubt.
"We would be very happy to work with Glossbrook in the future."
We are nearing completion of our second project with Glossbrook; the construction of a contemporary block of luxury apartments in Highcliffe. The project is on schedule and the finishes to a high standard. Both the site and office teams have been responsive and professional throughout and we have enjoyed an excellent working relationship. We would be very happy to work with Glossbrook in the future.
"We are delighted with our high specification finished home"
“We appointed Glossbrook to complete our coastal new build because we knew they had previous experience working on similar sites. Our project had its own unique challenges including a deep basement and foundations, in a beach location and in close proximity to neighbouring properties. Throughout the process Glossbrook’s management, contractors and tradesmen were attentive, professional and accommodating. The project took close to two years to complete and we are delighted with our high specification, finished home.”
"Our first port of call for every development."
I have had the pleasure of working with the team at Glossbrook for over twenty years, successfully completing numerous private and affordable residential projects across Dorset and Hampshire. The professional and pleasant manner with which they approach every project is a credit to their dedication to their clients. This ethos of customer service is clearly evident from their site operatives and subcontractors right up to the head office and directors. Glossbrook are always our first port of call for every development.
"The staff are very easy to work with"
We are happy to recommend Glossbrook for their competitive quoting, attention to detail and responsive communication throughout the course of the construction of the homes that they have now built for us. The staff are very easy to deal with and always courteous. We have been very happy with the build quality.
"I would recommend Glossbrooks to any other Housing Association or private client"
I would recommend Glossbrooks to any other Housing Association or private client and would advise them to view the work recently completed at Henley Court, Bournemouth. I would not hesitate to recommend them in the future, we are very pleased with the work and the state the site was left in on completion. May I personally thank you and your team for the works completed at Henley Court. What started out to be a relatively straight forward project soon became problematic with its daily challenges! However regular contact and communications with the project and site managers ensured that the job was not only completed to plan and budget but ahead of schedule as well!
"Myself and my wife are absolutely delighted"
Myself and my wife are absolutely delighted with the house it has exceeded our expectations. Absolute credit to everyone involved at Glossbrook particularly Richard Fooks and his team who showed a level of attention second to none and this clearly shows in the finished house. The build was uncomplicated from start to finish, thank you guys!
"We have been absolutely delighted with the quality of finish"
Having appointed Glossbrook for the construction of 8 projects over the past 5 years including a mix of apartments and one off luxury houses, we have been absolutely delighted with the quality of finish and attention to detail. They have been a pleasure to work with maintaining a high level of professionalism from tender stage through to practical completion.
"I would put Glossbrook at the very top of the tree in terms of contractors I have dealt"
Glossbrook constructed three large new detached houses for us at Luscombe in Canford Cliffs. They were a pleasure to deal with throughout the process with every single staff member showing a friendly, helpful and professional attitude. The product produced by Glossbrook was of a more than satisfactory standard, at a realistic cost and within a sensible time frame. Having spent 30 years in the house building industry, I would put Glossbrook at the very top of the tree in terms of contractors I have dealt with and I have no hesitation in recommending them to others.
