About
A developer built around judgement, quality and straight dealing
RockTower Homes is an owner-managed residential property developer focused on creating distinctive homes and commercially sound developments.
Positioning
What we are
We acquire land for development and create homes of distinction for individuals and families to live in. We are based in South East England and build choice homes in choice locations across the Midlands and the South East, with selected opportunities in other major UK cities.
Vision
Exceptional homes and inspiring places
We believe in creating exceptional homes and inspiring places in which to live and work. Our drive is excellence and our passion is to build homes of lasting value and timeless character — quality that holds over time, for the people who live in them and for the places around them.
Values
Four commitments we work to
Integrity
Transparent, dependable dealings with every counterparty.
Passion
Personal ownership of outcomes, not delegated interest.
Excellence
Quality from opportunity assessment through delivery and aftercare.
Collaboration
Productive relationships with landowners, agents, consultants, funders and delivery partners.
How we work
A clear, considered process
Assess properly
We look at location, product, planning position and economics before we form a view — and we say no clearly when a site is not right.
Design with intent
Specification and layout are set to suit the buyer and the place, not to squeeze the last unit onto a plan.
Deliver and stay involved
Decisions stay close to the founder, so consultants, contractors and partners get answers quickly.
Sustainability
Lasting developments, honestly described
We incorporate a range of traditional and environmentally-friendly concepts into our designs and construction methods to create lasting, sustainable developments, and consider environmental performance as part of design and specification decisions. We do not publish sustainability claims we cannot evidence; scheme-specific measures are described on the relevant development page.

Our team
Experienced people, inside and around the business
An owner-managed team of property and development professionals, supported by planning, design and construction partners.
Landowners, agents, planners, architects, contractors, funders and advisers all shape what gets built. We want to be the team they choose to work with again — judged on the quality of our developments and the aftercare we give our customers.
