In today’s fast-paced construction and refurbishment environment, efficiency, communication, and consistency are critical. Yet many projects still suffer from delays, budget overruns, and coordination breakdowns — often due to the challenge of managing multiple subcontractors.
That’s where multi-trade contracting offers a clear advantage. At Strathmór Building Co., our integrated team of skilled professionals delivers joinery, plumbing, electrical, plastering, and finishing works under one roof — providing clients with a seamless, reliable alternative to the traditional fragmented approach.
What Is Multi-Trade Contracting?
Multi-trade contracting refers to a construction model where a single company directly employs or manages various trades needed for a project. Rather than relying on separate subcontractors for each task, a multi-trade contractor delivers all core services in-house, coordinating them through a single point of contact.
Strathmór’s multi-trade structure includes:
- Joiners and carpenters
- Plumbers and electricians
- Tilers, decorators, and finishers
- Site supervisors and project managers
The Benefits of Working with a Multi-Trade Contractor
1. One Point of Contact
When all services are delivered by one team, communication is streamlined. You deal with a single project lead rather than chasing multiple subcontractors or bridging gaps between trades. This reduces errors, miscommunication, and client frustration.
2. Faster Project Timelines
With in-house coordination, we can control the project schedule more effectively. Trades are scheduled efficiently, overlap where possible, and avoid the downtime that often occurs when waiting for external contractors to become available.
3. Cost Control and Transparency
Multi-trade delivery reduces duplication and improves efficiency, allowing us to offer more accurate quotes and fewer unexpected costs. Clients receive clear, consolidated pricing — with no markups from third-party subcontractors.
4. Consistent Quality Standards
All trades within Strathmór are held to the same high standard. Our supervisors ensure that work across all disciplines meets our quality benchmarks, ensuring a consistent finish throughout every project.
5. Reduced Risk and Greater Accountability
When something goes wrong on a site managed by several subcontractors, responsibility can become blurred. With a multi-trade team, there is no finger-pointing. We take full ownership of the process, from the first fix to final handover.
