How long has SMG Building Solutions been operating?
SMG Building Solutions was established in 2010, though our Managing Director Mark Graham brings over 25 years of experience in the commercial building industry.
We’ve evolved from supporting both residential and commercial clients to now focusing exclusively on commercial projects, including office fit-outs, refurbishments, heritage restoration, and building maintenance across Kent and London.
What makes SMG different from other contractors?
We provide transparent pricing with no hidden costs, comprehensive industry accreditations including CHAS and ISO certifications, and 90% self-delivery using directly employed staff rather than relying heavily on subcontractors. This means better quality control, accountability, and communication throughout your project.
Our client relationships with major organisations like DPD, Amazon, Network Rail, and the Ministry of Defence demonstrate our capability to deliver complex commercial work reliably.
Who are your typical clients?
We work with diverse commercial clients including major corporations (DPD, Amazon), public sector organisations (Network Rail, Ministry of Defence), heritage trusts (Lambeth Palace), professional services firms, and SME businesses across Kent and London.
Our projects range from small office refurbishments to large-scale commercial fit-outs and ongoing maintenance programmes for logistics facilities and commercial properties.
Where is SMG Building Solutions based?
We’re based in Rochester, Kent at Unit 36, Space Business Centre, Strood. Our location gives us excellent coverage across Kent and Greater London, with strong local knowledge of building regulations and established relationships with regional suppliers. Being locally based means fast response times and personal service for our commercial clients.
What accreditations and certifications do you hold?
We maintain comprehensive industry accreditations including CHAS (Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme), ISO 9001 (Quality Management), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management), FENSA registration for fenestration work, Guild of Master Craftsmen membership, and Medway Fair Trader Scheme membership.
We’re also registered with Constructionline Gold. These certifications are regularly audited and demonstrate our commitment to quality, safety, and professional standards.
Do you use subcontractors or your own team?
We directly employ our core trades and maintain approximately 90% self-delivery on projects. This means the team working on your project are SMG employees, not external subcontractors.
Where specialist skills are required, we use carefully vetted, trusted subcontractors we’ve worked with for years. This approach ensures consistent quality, better communication, and complete accountability throughout delivery.
How did you become trusted by major organisations?
Our relationships with blue-chip clients developed through consistently delivering quality work on time and on budget. We’ve built trust by maintaining transparent communication, handling complex compliance requirements professionally, and demonstrating reliability across multiple projects.
Our CHAS accreditation, ISO certifications, and proven track record on sensitive sites like Ministry of Defence heritage assets show we meet rigorous standards required by major organisations.
What is your company's approach to sustainability?
We hold ISO 14001 Environmental Management certification, demonstrating our systematic approach to environmental responsibility.
We minimise waste through careful materials ordering and site management, work with suppliers committed to sustainable practices, and advise clients on energy-efficient building solutions. Our refurbishment and enhancement services help extend building life, reducing the environmental impact of demolition and new construction.
