Omschrijving
The gap between the site cabin and the muddy boots on the ground is the biggest problem in construction today. Here is how you bridge it.
At sixteen years old, I was standing ankle-deep in Ayrshire mud, learning the trade of bricklaying the hard way: in the freezing rain, under the watchful eye of old-school tradesmen. I learned that respect isn't given; it's earned. I learned that quality isn't a checklist; it's a habit.
But I also saw a broken system. I saw an "Us vs. Them" mentality—a war between the trades who build the job and the managers who run it.
I decided to put down the trowel and change the industry from the inside out.
From Trowel to Chartered is not a textbook written by someone who has never lifted a hod. It is a raw, honest, and practical guide from a Chartered Site Manager who has lived on both sides of the fence. It traces the journey from apprentice to leader, offering a blueprint for the next generation of construction professionals.
Inside, you will learn:
The Art of Respect: How to use technical knowledge to win over the toughest sub-contractors.
Quality Control: Why "snagging" is a sign of failure and how to get it right the first time.
Commercial Awareness: Understanding that money is a material, and why "if it's not in writing, it didn't happen."
Safety Without the Headache: Moving beyond box-ticking to create a culture where people look out for each other.
The Modern Manager: Navigating mental health, sustainability, and the digital revolution on site.
Whether you are an apprentice looking to climb the ladder, or a manager struggling to connect with your team, this book is your guide to building better, leading stronger, and ensuring quality is always at the forefront.
The boots are still on the ground. They're just cleaner now.
