WHAT WE DO

Running a small construction company is tough. Evening and weekends often get eaten up by admin – onboarding sub-contractors, chasing compliance docs, formatting tenders, updating trackers and sending invoices. At The Builder Desk, we take admin off your plate. We’re not VA’s; We’re Construction Admin Specialists. Our team knows the industry, so whether it’s subcontractor onboarding, tender packs, compliance registers or project handover files, you get clean, contract-ready output every single time.

Subcontractor Onboarding

Stop chasing CSCS cards and insurance documents: get your subcontractors site-ready without the paperwork headache. Bringing subcontractors on board usually means chasing insurance, CSCS cards, and references when you should be running the job. We handle the process end-to-end.
Collect and verify insurances, CSCS cards, references, and bank details.
Create branded structured onboarding packs for each subcontractor.
Keep records updated and audit-ready.

Why it matters:
Avoid project delays.
Stay fully compliant with client and H&S requirements.
Save hours of admin per subcontractor.

Document Control & Compliance

Never lose track of drawings, RFIs, or compliance packs again. Messy documents create disputes and missed claims. We keep your files clean, organised, and contract-ready.
Maintain drawing registers and change logs.
Track RFIs, TQs and variation logs.
Compile RAMS, O&M, and close-out handover packs.


Why it matters:

Always ready for client checks or audits.
Reduce costly mistakes and rework.
Confidence that every file is in the right place.

Why it matters:
Avoid “he said, she said” disputes.
Show professionalism to clients and consultants.
