Construction services across Sussex.

Four areas of expertise. One consistent standard of craftsmanship, technical delivery and collaborative project management.

Led directly by Julian, Tidal Drift supports projects from planning through to delivery, providing early technical input, construction expertise and collaborative site management throughout the build journey. We work alongside architects, self-builders, designers and design-led homeowners to help technically demanding and bespoke projects progress smoothly from concept and planning into completed spaces.

Combining technical carpentry, creative engineering and practical project coordination, we deliver thoughtful, high-quality construction with precision, transparency and problem-solving at its core.

Extensions

Expand your living space with a design that fits your home and your life. From single-storey kitchen extensions to full wraparound builds. Combining technical carpentry expertise, creative problem-solving and collaborative delivery, we work with architects, designers and homeowners to deliver carefully considered extensions that feel integrated, functional and built to last.

Garden Rooms

Versatile garden buildings for work, leisure, or both. Insulated, wired, and finished to the same standard as your home.

Modular & Self-Build

Tidal Drift supports self-build and modular projects with technical construction expertise, practical consultancy and hands-on delivery. Working alongside homeowners, architects and project teams, we help with buildability, detailing, site setup, project coordination and construction delivery. The result is greater confidence, tighter cost control and reduced on-site disruption.

New Builds

Complete new build construction from concept to completion. Where a client comes without an architect, we recommend collaborators we trust.
