At Care Home Builders, we specialise in delivering safe, efficient, and future-ready care home construction projects across Gloucestershire, starting from new builds and specialist units to upgrades and extensions. With more than 20 years of hands-on experience in the care sector, we understand what’s required to create spaces that feel like home, function smoothly, and meet the latest regulatory standards. We’ve worked with care providers across the region, including in Cheltenham, Gloucester, Tewkesbury, and Stroud, delivering builds that combine thoughtful design with practical, long-term value.
New Build Care Homes
Whether you're building a new residential care home in Cirencester or a dementia-friendly facility in the Forest of Dean, we offer a complete turnkey solution. From early design coordination and planning support to construction and final fit-out, our team ensures every home is built around the needs of your residents and staff, while staying compliant with CQC and local authority standards.
Refurbishments & Internal Upgrades
Older care homes in areas such as Dursley, Lydney, and Bishop’s Cleeve often need careful updating, whether to improve accessibility, meet new safety requirements, or modernise the space. We carry out phased refurbishments that cause minimal disruption to ongoing care, working around residents and operational needs with care and respect.
Care Home Extensions
Do you need to create space for more residents, or add new communal facilities? We’ve delivered smart, well-integrated extensions across Gloucestershire from additional bedrooms and lounges to therapy spaces, staff areas, and sensory gardens. Our work is carefully designed to blend with existing layouts and meet planning and building control requirements.
Sector-Specific Design Support
We understand how layout, lighting, material choice, and circulation space all affect life in a care home. That’s why we advise on every detail, helping you create a home that supports dignity, safety, and day-to-day care delivery.
