Services
As a boutique construction company, we run no more than three projects simultaneously, enabling us to closely manage each one, and ensuring our finish standards are met each time. We understand the importance of communication, and maintain a high level of personal commitment to each client. We also offer a thoroughly pragmatic approach to price.
OLBC has long taken a responsible and considered approach to its work and the impact it has on others. Wastefulness costs us, our clients, and our environment. Our environmental policy was born out of an innate desire to get things done swiftly and straightforwardly, causing as little impact to those around us as possible.
Our pre-construction service at OLBC combines the numerous elements of design and consents involved in getting a project live on site. This frees our clients from the time and responsibility for individually appointing an architect, structural engineer, interior designer, mechanical and electrical engineer etc. etc.

I would not recommend using OLBC or their related companies (including Basement Works).
We ended up using a solicitor to get out of the contract with them as they got so many major things wrong we lost confidence - these might have been due to their high staff turnover.
For instance, the certificate they sent out to show that they had the required insurance in place had the wrong company name on it - they have a number of companies but the one we contracted with was not among the many ones named on the insurance certificate. While they did produce a new certificate, I did ask whether the insurance
