Latest on Showhome: Building Better Futures: Sustainability, Innovation, and the Future of Property Development "Countryside charity CPRE reckons that 1.2m new homes could be built on our unused brownfield land, enough to deliver 80% of Labour's 5-year housebuilding target.

By converting our unused shops, offices and industrial units into residential, we automatically breathe life back into those town centres. These new residents create demand for further shops, cafes, restaurants, and other services. And the carbon footprint of repurposing is a fraction of building new", says Ritchie Clapson CEngMIStructE, Co-Founder, propertyCEO.

Latest on Showhome: The Evolution of Roofing in the UK "The UK’s modern architectural scenery is made up of a massive variety of styles, with housing in particular having distinctive styles depending on where in the country you live. The look of contemporary housing owes much to the history and traditions of house building dating back centuries. The results of today’s landscape are usually based on the local availability of building materials, this is reflected not only in buildings but what’s on the roof too. Roofing across Britain is unlike anywhere else in Europe, many other countries tend to use predominantly one material. However, the local availability of raw materials in the UK over the centuries has resulted in a diverse range of roofing styles". Says Andrew Hayward, Managing Director at Russell Roof Tiles.
