When we were originally founded over 125 years ago, our ambition was to build better homes and communities.
That ambition is as relevant today as it was in 1897 and while building beautiful, sustainable homes is still very much a part of our business, we have grown into a fully fledged construction, residential development and property services company.
Despite our size we still place communities and people at the heart of everything we do.

A proud history since 1897
Founded over 125 years ago, we know about the built environment. Family values are at the heart of what we do. Whether we’re teaching the next generation about green technologies or providing opportunities for those furthest from the workforce, we partner with a wide range of public and private sector customers and partners to create the places, communities and businesses of tomorrow.
Now in our fourth generation of family ownership,we are committed to the long-term future of the built environment. The Wates Family is focused on the continued sustainability of the company and to handing over to the next generation an even stronger, more sustainable business.
