Two Decades Of Real-World Experience
I've spent more than two decades working hands-on across construction, renovation and high-end property. From running projects and managing trades to solving problems when things don't go to plan, my advice comes from real experience – not theory.
Meet Richard West
I started my journey in construction more than two decades ago, learning the trade hands-on before progressing into project management and eventually running my own business.
That experience has taught me things you simply can't learn from a textbook – working with homeowners, trades, professionals and private clients, and dealing with the decisions and problems that arise on real projects.
From Foundations to Finishes
Over the years, I've worked across every stage of construction – from hands-on building and renovation to managing projects, maintaining properties on private country estates for UHNW families.
That experience means I understand what happens behind the drawings and quotations – the hidden costs, contractor red flags and decisions that can either protect a budget or become very expensive mistakes.
Why I Started Novaro Projects
Too often, homeowners are left guessing:
I started Novaro Projects because I've seen first-hand how quickly the wrong decision can become an expensive one. My role is simple: give you independent, experienced advice before you commit – so you can make important property decisions with greater clarity and confidence.
Independent Advice, Built Around You
Every property decision is different, I don't believe in one-size-fits-all advice or pushing unnecessary services. We start with a conversation, understand what you're facing, and work out where my experience can genuinely help.
