The local building and joinery experts

Home: Welcome

MPJ Building Contractors is family run company, owned by Malcolm Paterson, who have been building bespoke properties for the people of East Lothian for over 40 years. We offer a full project-managed service; meaning we take care of everything involved in your building project, so you don’t have to.

As a family run business, we take pride in the quality of our workmanship, and the service we offer our local community. As well as new-builds, we have experience renovating and converting rundown buildings, including listed buildings. Our renovation work has been shortlisted for a prestige Saltire House Design Award – something we are very proud of.  

Along with our building expertise, we also provide tailored joinery and carpentry services. Using traditional woodworking skills from our at-home workshop, we make and fit all our own windows, doors, kitchens and staircases.  We can even make your own bespoke furniture too. Meaning we create you a truly unique and individual property.

Working flexibly, meticulously and methodically, we work as part of your team; caring about your build and your budget as much as you do. Communication is key to a successful project, so we work hard at keeping you informed throughout the process, making sure there are no surprises.

So if you are looking for a builder that makes life easy, give us a call.
