Quality & Sustainability

We deliver high quality homes responsibly, combining proven standards with sustainable practices that support communities and protect the environment.

Quality & Sustainability

Committed to Quality. Focused on Sustainability.

At McTaggart Construction, quality and sustainability aren't separate commitments, they're part of the same promise we make to our clients, our people and the communities we work in. Every home we build carries our name. We make sure it earns it.

We've been building homes across Scotland since 1946, and our reputation has been built on exactly this: hard work, integrity and a dedication to getting things right. That hasn't changed. What has changed is our ambition - to keep raising the standard with every project we deliver.

Measuring What Matters

We formally track our Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions annually, benchmarked against Scotland's net zero ambitions.

Clear Targets, Real Progress

From our 2020/21 baseline, we're committed to a 50% emissions reduction by 2030 and 90% by 2045.

Powering a Greener Future

All our offices run on 100% renewable energy, with low-carbon eco-cabins reducing site CO2 by 69%.

Building a Circular Economy

We consistently achieve a 95% recycling rate across our sites, with zero waste going to landfill.

Local Choices, Lower Emissions

By prioritising local sustainably sourced materials, we reduce both transport emissions and environmental impact.

Our Projects

Building for a better tomorrow

Our work spans right across Scotland - from Stranraer to Dundee to Selkirk, and the many communities in between. Integrity remains the foundation of everything we build, with community always at our core.

What Our Clients Say

Proven to last, trusted to deliver

It was a difficult site to manage with the tenants who would finally occupy the new houses living on the perimeter of the site. The site staff were exemplary in building relationships with the tenants. McTaggart offered a transparent and collaborative approach throughout the project. We have already instructed McTaggart to deliver our phase 2 - this is the best testimony.

Dawn Conner

The quality of this development is exceptional. I have never seen affordable housing having such a significant impact on residents.

Phil McNeil

Housing Manager

Always had a positive approach to developing and delivering affordable housing projects. All staff I’ve worked with have been very personable and easy to work with. Always felt they take on board what were trying to achieve.

Graeme Gemmel

Home Group Scotland

From the start of a project to completion communication is always above and beyond. They listen to their client and have a great understanding of what is needed and deliver to the highest levels. The project teams are always available.

Laura Penman

We have had a long standing relationship working with McTaggart and this has always been a successful partnership delivering on a variety of complex mixed tenure sites. We find the people very approachable.
