Merrit Construction is a UK building contractor specialising in self-delivered groundworks & civils and packaged support for major retail store builds — alongside commercial, retail and residential projects. Fixed-price and properly managed.
Core capabilities
Groundworks up. Major retail builds supported.
Two things we're built for: self-delivered groundworks & civils that put the right base under every scheme, and defined work packages that help main contractors deliver major retail stores.

Who we are
A new company built on long-standing experience
Merrit Construction was established in 2024, but the people behind it have been pricing, managing and delivering construction projects for years. We started Merrit to do things properly: honest quotations, tight project management, and workmanship that doesn't need excuses.
Based in North Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, we work across Doncaster, Scunthorpe, Hull, Leeds, Sheffield, York and Lincoln — and nationwide for the right project.

How we work
From site visit to handover
No vague estimates, no surprises. A clear four-stage process keeps you informed from the first walk-round to the final snag.
-
01
Site visit
We visit, measure and listen. You talk us through what you need; we flag risks and opportunities early.
-
02
Written quote
A fixed-price, itemised quotation — typically within a week. What we quote is what you pay.
-
03
The build
A named project manager, weekly progress reports and staged payments tied to completed work.
-
04
Handover
A snag walk-through together, then handover with a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
“Sharp, organised and easy to deal with. Merrit priced the job properly, kept us posted at every step, and delivered exactly what was promised — on time and on budget.”
