I’m Martin Redford, a UK-based Quantity Surveyor and commercial consultant with over 20 years in the construction industry. I’ve worked on everything from small refurbishments to multi-million-pound developments, across trades, management, and client roles.
I also co-founded Tradeshake, a construction technology startup built to simplify contracts between trades and homeowners. That experience showed me how stressful and fragmented this industry can be.
I created The Construction Hub to bring people together. The Construction Hub provides tradespeople, homeowners, project managers and property developers a platform to share experience, gain knowledge, and avoid the common pitfalls that come with building projects.
Here you’ll find real, practical advice on contracts, money, disputes, and project management, all shared in a down-to-earth, supportive environment.
