Coastal. Considered. Built to last.
Dorset custom homes and whole-house remodels
Quiet craftsmanship. Built for the view.
Building a house on this coast is not a quick job and we do not pretend it is. We take on eight projects a year, keep the trades that decide the finish in-house, and put the completion date in the contract. From knock-down rebuilds to whole-house remodels, the house you pictured is the house you get.
Our work
See what others have to say.
They were not the cheapest quote. They were the only ones who put a finish date in writing and then hit it. The windows and the joinery are their own people, and you can tell.
Richard and Sue W.Homeowners, Sandbanks
A full remodel of a 1968 house with the family living upstairs for four months. Every morning at 7.30 the same faces, every evening the site swept. I did not expect to enjoy a building project.
Amira H.Homeowner, Canford Cliffs
Ben walked the plot with me in a gale before I had bought it and told me exactly what it would cost to build there. It came in within three per cent.

Why Marsh & Tide?
One contract, start to keys
Planning, design coordination, build and fit-out under one agreement with one person answerable for it. You never have to referee between a designer and a builder.
In-house trades
Windows, joinery and stone are the three trades that decide how a coastal house looks in ten years, so we employ them. Our own workshop in Hamworthy makes every kitchen and staircase.
A date you can plan around
A house here takes twelve to eighteen months. We put the completion date in the contract, report against it every fortnight, and have missed it twice in fourteen years, both times by under a month.
