About.
Detail. Integrity.
Delivery.
Leighton George is an independent consultancy dedicated exclusively to high-end residential project and cost management. Based out of our Bristol office and working across Bath, the Cotswolds and the South Coast, we bring the rigour of London practice to the South West - managing new-build homes, estates, redevelopments and listed restorations for private clients, family offices, developers and architects.
Our approach is personal, design-literate, and entirely client-focused. Every project is director-led and managed with precision, integrity, and care; ensuring that every decision is measured and every outcome refined.
Our Services.
We manage every stage of design and delivery; protecting cost, quality and programme from concept to completion.
