We Build Where People Gather

SKHB Construction Ltd is a London-based construction company specialising in building and maintaining beautiful restaurant spaces. From complete builds to ongoing maintenance, we handle every detail under one roof.

From a complete kitchen fit-out to the final coat of paint, we manage everything ourselves: electrics, plumbing, tiling, joinery, the lot. No subcontractor roulette. One team, one standard.

Founded by Sununu, SKHB Construction is a hands-on team of specialists who have spent years learning what makes hospitality spaces work. Every member of our crew understands the unique demands of restaurant environments, from gas-safe kitchens to front-of-house finishes that need to survive thousands of covers.

We listen first, plan precisely, and deliver exceptional workmanship within your budget and timeline. Our goal is simple: get you open and trading as quickly as possible, without cutting a single corner.

We're not the biggest. We're the ones who get it right.

What Our Clients Say

From the first site visit to handing over the keys, Sununu and his team were exceptional. They understood exactly what we needed and delivered a space that exceeded our expectations. The attention to detail is remarkable.
James T.
Restaurant Owner, Kudu Grill
We needed a team who could work to a tight deadline without cutting corners. SKHB delivered on every front: the kitchen, the dining room, even the cellar. We opened on schedule and haven't looked back.
Maria S.
Director, Lisboeta
What sets SKHB apart is that they genuinely understand restaurants. They think about how a space will work during a busy service, not just how it looks. That knowledge is invaluable.
Daniel R.
Founder, Casa do Frango

What We Do

End-to-end construction and maintenance for restaurants

Full Restaurant Builds

From empty shell to opening night. We manage the full journey. Structure, kitchen, electrics, plumbing, floors, walls, and every finishing touch. We work to get you trading on schedule, because every day of delay is revenue lost.

Built for service, not just for show. We design and install kitchens that survive a Friday night rush, year after year.

Renovations & Refurbishments

Breathe new life into your space while minimising downtime. We plan around your service schedule to protect your revenue, working fast without rushing, so you get back to trading sooner.
