About Us

There is vast accrued property and construction industry knowledge in McBains, more than our size might suggest.

We're accessible, flexible, ego-free, and highly conscious it's all about you and what you want. We're flattered to be sought-out by clients and partners, who, in collaborating with us in often long-term relationships, recognise our drive and passion to evolve and advance the way our industry operates and delivers while accurately addressing those wants.

We continually interrogate the environment in which we work to find the better way. And we keep on finding answers. Usually simple ones.

While beauty in simplicity is a well-worn phrase, we wear it very well.

We find simplicity, and the better way, by understanding the businesses and organisations with whom we work, how they think and operate, the specific requirements they have, and by doing what our clients need rather than what we think they want.

Why our business operates in this way, and succeeds as a consequence, is down to a long-standing element of our approach: we replace complexity with that simplicity. We use the intelligence with which our highly-qualified people are bestowed.

Simplicity and intelligence are effective partners. Simplicity provides the breathing space to think clearly. Clear thinking allows intelligence to be deployed more effectively.

After 230 years, we'll continue to find and deliver the better way.
