Belper School and Sixth Form Centre Re-roof and Re-wire
The service, communication and quality of work were fantastic throughout the programme. The site manager, Kane Foster, worked closely with our staff and was very responsive to any requests working flexibly to accommodate our needs as a working school. We felt we had a very positive working relationship with Stepnells and their door was always open.
I wish to thank the construction team for all their hard work and professionalism over the project. Any disruption was kept to a minimum and communication between school and the team was strong throughout. The work has had very positive impact on the school environment and rooms are now much more pleasant to learn in since the work was completed.

I think the thing that stands out for me working with Stepnell is their focus on social value and how they go above and beyond to help and support their local and regional communities. I was fortunate to support Stepnell at an event at Nottingham’s Girls Academy, where we engaged with 150 young girls to get them interested in the construction industry.

Sue engaged the young people by building on their existing knowledge to discuss jobs in the construction industry, personal branding, and interview skills. The learners were thoroughly engaged throughout the session, and as their confidence grew, they were able to identify and apply their own transferable skills in a practical task. The learners left having broken down any preconceptions, overcome stereotypes, and broadened horizons.

Chesterfield Wellbeing Hub
It has been a pleasure for Southgate & Sarabia Architects to work with Stepnell on the Health & Wellbeing Hub at Chesterfield Royal Hospital. The team from start to finish were great to work with, taking a proactive approach on the design and build of the project.
The team pushed for sustainability, which was really refreshing for a contractor to be so passionate about sustainability. It was great for the team to work in a collaborative way, getting involved with events outside the project, which was an opportunity for the teams to work together for a good cause.

Charlotte Street Garages and Shaftesbury Sports Centre
Kane was a very good site manager, working on a particularly unpleasant site. He communicated well with local residents, and completed the work earlier than programmed. Communication was good throughout and all handover documents were sent to DCC shortly after completion. All applications for payment were made on time, and Stepnell supported DCC in issuing interim applications to help with our end of year financial cash flow.

Town Thorns Care Home
We worked with Stepnell on a multi-million pound project to upgrade our care home. They were very caring in their approach and mindful of our residents’ comfort. They updated us daily on progress and possible noise/disruption to ensure works were carried out at a time suitable to us. They managed the project very well considering we were a live care home in times of Covid outbreaks
