The Heronlake story began in 1965 when David Coles set up his one-man building company in Surrey. Servicing residential customers throughout the area, he strived for exceptional quality with every job.

SCROLL
David’s son, Stuart, took over the family business in 2018, and Heronlake was officially born.
Originally, Stuart just planned to follow in his father’s residential footsteps. However, the firm expanded into the commercial building world after picking up odd jobs and realising they had a knack for turning commercial conversions over quickly.
Since then, Stuart’s sons have come on board, along with focus teams that specialise in both commercial and residential projects.
That means when you partner with Heronlake, you’re choosing a dedicated commercial construction company that still achieves exceptional quality with every job.

Godalming Client
“We have used Heronlake Construction a few times over the past 6 years. They completed an extension on our old house converting our lounge to double the size and giving us a utility room too. We were over the moon with the work but before long we were growing from a family of 3 to a family of 4 so made the decision to move. We moved to our current home 3 years ago and in that time we have had 3 projects completed. We are absolutely thrilled with the work that Heronlake have carried out. We now have a larger kitchen-diner, a new bedroom 1 with ensuite, bedroom 2 also now has an ensuite and the garage has been converted into a study and utility room. The Heronlake team have always been punctual, tidy, clean, efficient, friendly and have amazing attention to detail. We couldn’t be happier with the work they have carried out for us over the past few years. All work has always been well planned and completed on time, we would highly recommend them. Many thanks again to you all!!”

“When we first met Stuart and Toby we were immediately impressed with their attention to detail and extremely professional approach to the work, and we felt comfortable appointing them. We were not disappointed! Throughout the project Stuart was closely involved on a daily basis, always available to chat through any concerns we might have, and ready to offer ideas and solutions when needed. His whole team were polite, friendly, helpful and tidy, and a pleasure to have around. Having never done this type of project before we were both apprehensive about the disruption, and anxious about the work. With Stuart and all the team at Heronlake we we need not have worried. We are absolutely delighted with the finished result and would have no hesitation in highly recommending Heronlake.”
Farnham Client
“We were impressed by the meticulous approach and thought that went into everything that Heronlake did for us. The team were very flexible and worked around us remaining in the house where possible. Communication was regular throughout the project so we knew what was happening at all times. Potential issues were spotted and solved quickly, enabling them to keep to the agreed schedule, and the quality of the finished build is excellent. We are delighted with the end result of a light-filled spacious family home.”

“If you are looking for a skilled builder focused on honesty, integrity, fantastic communication, extreme attention to details and quality contractors… call Heronlake.
Very impressed with how they have made the ideas in our head’s reality… Stuart consulted us on every decision, and nothing was a problem if change needed to be made!
Stuart has an eye for details, brings his own design flair and experience to the project, and the quality of finishing was to the very highest standard… It is obvious that Heronlake pride themselves in their work.”
Client
“Stuart and his team provided us with an exceptional service. Stuart worked closely with our architect, Chris Medland of One World Design and helped make sure that the design translated well from plan to the actual building.
We moved out during the building works and visited the site each week. Stuart is an imaginative problem solver and pays great attention to detail so we did not feel any urge to micro manage.
Throughout the project Stuart was mindful of the budget and his careful research into suppliers resulted in some pleasing savings. The project was completed within budget and in good time and since completion Stuart has been conscientious and prompt in dealing with the minor snagging items.
We are delighted with the transformation of our house and we actively enjoyed the process!”
Bramley Client
“We would definitely use Heronlake Constuction again, and would not hesitate to recommend them to others. Stuart and his team were all absolutely charming to deal with.
They were patient, knowledgeable, helpful at every stage of the project. Stuart was a brilliant project manager – always available to answer questions, come up with ideas and solutions. Matt and Phil were superb site managers and worked so hard at everything with a remarkable attention to detail and genuine care in our project.
Other contractors visiting the site remarked how easy all the team were to deal with and how unusually helpful they were. The result is amazing – great quality build, on time and on budget, and a superb finished project which we are proud to live in!”
Grayshott Client
“We would fully recommend Heronlake Construction having used them for a rear home extension and other internal works. They provided helpful advice on design finish throughout and were very considerate working round us while we continued to live at the property. They kept us informed at each stage and completed the project on time.”
Firgrove Hill Client
Working with Heronlake was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Toby was extremely responsive during our due diligence process and provided support and advice as we were deciding what to do. Then Stuart took over the engagement when our build started providing great guidance and communication right the way through. Nothing was too much trouble and any challenges were overcome during the build. We are exceptionally happy with the outcome and can’t recommend Heronlake enough.
Hindhead Client
Having used Stuart for a previous extension some 9 years ago, it was a natural decision to use Heronlake for our latest project. From our initial ideas and concepts they helped us develop a scheme which, now completed, we are extremely pleased with!
Heronlake’s planning and speedy project delivery to a exceptional high standard is second to none. Throughout the numerous inevitable challenges and decisions that have to be made during a project Stuart’s favourite phrase “that’s not a problem” meant there was always a solution!
We would highly recommend Heronlake to anyone looking for a quality reliable builder.
