Testimonial

After successfully completing the initial phase at Fulbrook School where SMD undertook a £13m project to build a Teaching Block, Sports Hall, and play areas, the feedback scorecard rated SMD 95/95 across 19 sections, achieving a perfect score of 100%. Their dedication to excellence, demonstrated through first-class performance in areas such as experience, management, technical competence, user involvement, diversity, and health and safety, reflects their commitment to precision and professionalism in construction.

Capital Construction Quality Manager at Central Bedfordshire Council

From the initial planning stages through to project completion, communication was seamless, and every challenge was met with a proactive and solution-focused approach. The team went above and beyond to ensure minimal disruption to school operations while delivering work of the highest quality. SMD’s commitment to sustainability, community engagement, and fostering positive relationships on site was evident in every aspect of their work. We are thrilled with the outcome of Laxton Sadler House and would not hesitate to recommend SMD for future projects.

Amy Scott

Director of Estates at Oundle School

Our experience with SMD was marked with high integrity, good quality, and high-value work. They always kept the school informed and were very fair when unexpected issues arose. Their willingness to explore options and accept a challenging schedule was commendable. We truly appreciated how the site was maintained and the pleasant, can-do attitude of the SMD team—even after the work was complete.

Jenna Faulkner

School Business Manager at Derwent Primary School

The 5 houses at Wrestlingworth is one of the best managed projects I have seen from start to finish. Right from the start of the project, SMD had complete control of the site and their contractors, with any questions raised by CBC the site team had these items closed out within 1 week. At the start of the project, we had an issue with a waterlogged site, but SMD managed this so there was no delay to the project. When it came to handover, this was the first site handed over snag free and to exceptional high standard. I am pleased that we are continuing the working relationship now on other projects.
