Who We Are

Andy Kershaw, our founder, discovered his passion for building as a teenager while working on his family's housing developments. Though his twenties saw him become a professional rugby player for teams like Wasps, Saracens, and London Irish- his property obsession persisted where he managed development projects between training sessions (unknown to the coaches!)

After retiring from rugby, Andy established himself as a successful London property developer before transitioning to client-side project management. His expertise earned him Chartership with the Institute of Building in 2017—a mark of excellence in the industry. Upon being asked to deliver seminars on construction at property conferences, Andy identified a critical industry need: a construction company offering both expertise AND integrity. This realization led to the founding of Lazuli Projects.

Beyond property, Andy is a qualified transformational life coach who facilitates therapeutic men's groups and supports his wife's psychotherapy practice. When not working or helping others, he enjoys cycling adventures with his four children on the Sussex downs.

Sarah is a qualified accountant and bookkeeper. She manages the day to day, cheques and balances at Lazuli projects. In her spare time she can be found at her son's sports clubs or chasing her ’spirited' Labrador around the Sussex countryside. 

We’re proud to have, not only have the best in the industry when it comes to craftsmanship, but also a team of genuinely good people who truly care. Our team consists of ground workers, master bricklayers, electricians, plumbers, master tilers, fire and security, carpenters, plasterers, decorators, designers, engineers and many more. We’re united by a shared commitment in delivering excellence for our clients, driven by a great team spirit. 

Our office manager (in training), Mr Darcy, ensures everyone in the office is looked after. He also acts as the office guard with any dangerous pigeons at the window kept well away.
