Here at Greenham Construction, we have carried out many jobs within the commercial market, winning all of our contracts through competitive tender. If you are considering building works to your business premises, school or church, why not give us a call, and we would be happy to visit and give you advice on cost and timescales. We can also put you in contact with architects and structural engineers, to enable you to make your plans a reality.
Below are a few of the commercial projects which we have carried out recently throughout the Thatcham and Newbury area:
Housing Developments
Sandleford Farm
Sandleford Farm was previously a small industrial site on the outskirts of Newbury. During the build there were many obstacles to overcome, the site being quite enclosed and set on a very busy road. One of the existing barns on the site was converted into two single dwellings. There were a further seven new build properties constructed and all had to meet strict NHBC guideline and party wall requirements. We worked alongside the client to finish the build on time and on budget with all the properties being sold within a short time period.
16 Winchester Road
We were approached by Park House Stables to build 2 new semi-detached houses for their staff. A simple and straightforward traditional build finished to high standards. With triple glazing and high insulation these properties will provided a warm and cosy home at low cost for the staff living there.
Churches
This is Emmanuel Methodist Church - A new build church on the Oxford Road, Reading, and Thatcham Baptist Church, which had a large extension to incorporate a new lift shaft, offices and tea room
Water Features
To the right there are some of the water features we have installed on behalf of Sir William Pye. If you would like a quote for installing works of art, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Mary Hare School
We were approached by Mary Hare School with the impossible! We were asked to build a new boarding house using traditional methods in only 5 months. The project was finished one day before term started and the return of the pupils. The build has made a huge difference to all those living there. We feel extremely proud of all that we achieved on this project under such time pressure. The boarding house was opened by Princess Anne.
