Delivering Value In Housebuilding: The Stormking Advantage

Not just a supplier but a partner

Successful house building in the UK boils down to more than just meeting deadlines and staying within budget. Success is about ensuring durability and reliability, while tackling practical challenges like tight schedules, evolving client expectations and environmental exposure.

At Stormking, we understand that contractors, specifiers, architects and developers, face different challenges, with differing priorities. Our prefabricated GRP building components are engineered to address these demands, delivering practical efficiency and design versatility.

How we bring value to:

Contractors: Lightweight, prefabricated GRP components that simplify installation, reduce on-site time and labour costs, and help stay on schedule and within budget.
Architects: A versatile range of products that blend design flexibility with high performance, ensuring aesthetic integration and compliance with industry standards.
Specifiers: Products that meet both functional and aesthetic requirements while ensuring long-term durability and sustainability.
Developers: Enhance property value and appeal through durable, low-maintenance products that reduce lifecycle costs and contribute to faster sales.

Making installations a breeze

We’re aware that more often than not, contractors on-site operate in fast-paced environments when time is critical.

Our GRP building components such as our BBA-certified GRP Chimney Stacks, GRP Bay Window Roofs and GRP Dormers, as designed to reduce the complexity of installations.

This leads to fewer delays, which in turn aids in overall cost reduction. Time is money, after all.

Ease of Use: Our GRP building products are lightweight, making them easier to transport, lift and install when on site.
Uniformity: Prefabrication ensures each piece is uniform, eliminating the need for adjustments on site.

“Using Stormking GRP chimney stacks, we completed installation faster than using traditional methods, reducing both labour and equipment costs. The Chimney arrived and was craned into position off the back of the lorry immediately” – Feedback from a contractor at a recent project.

Delivering Long-Term Value

As a developer, the focus is beyond the completion of the project and shifts towards creating properties that deliver lasting value for homeowners and investors alike. GRP’s ability to balance cost efficiency, durability and market appeal makes it a particularly attractive building material when looking to ensure the success and profitability of any development.

We deliver products that meet these priorities, enhancing the aesthetic and functional quality of developments, while mitigating long-term costs and risk.

Curb Appeal: Products like our GRP dormers, bay window roofs and chimney stacks enhance the aesthetic appeal of developments, increasing buyer interest and property value.
Cost-effective: GRP components minimise lifecycle costs with their long-lasting durability and resistance to environmental stressors like corrosion, UV rays, and weather. Prefabrication contributes to a reduction in on-site labour and material waste, contributing to budget-friendly builds.

“Homes in our most recent development featured Stormking GRP Dormers, which contributed to faster sales thanks to their premium appearance and low-maintenance features.”

Balancing Design With Function And Performance

For architects and specifiers selecting materials and products for a project, multiple factors are taken into account. Functionality, performance, appearance, cost and sustainability to name but a few.

Our products address these factors, providing a solution that blends creative freedom with long-term high performance.

Performance: Our GRP Chimney Stacks, GRP Bay Window Roofs and GRP Dormers are BBA-certified certified to meet stringent industry standards, including structural strength, fire safety, weather resistance, and thermal performance.
Appearance: We aim to replicate traditional materials such as stone or timber, which ensures seamless integration with other products and materials used on site.
Sustainability: Being lightweight and low-maintenance, our GRP products support sustainability goals, and reduce environmental impact during transportation and installation, while offering exceptional durability, minimising long-term maintenance and upkeep.

Aside from this, our in-house technical and design teams work with architects and specifiers, ensuring that materials align with the overall project vision, but also that they meet all regulatory needs.

“Working with Stormking allowed us to specify materials that balanced aesthetics and practicality while staying within budget and performance criteria.” – Feedback from a specifier on a recent project.
