Hill is an award-winning housebuilder and one of the leading developers in London, the home counties, and the South.
The company is renowned for its partnership ethos, specialising in the building of distinctive new places and communities where people want to live, work, and socialise. It is now in the process of opening new regional offices to facilitate growth in the Midlands.
In its 24th year, this family-owned and operated company has grown to establish itself as the UK's second-largest privately-owned housebuilder, with an impressive and diverse portfolio of projects ranging from landmark, mixed-use regenerations, and inner-city apartment developments to homes in rural communities.
Employing over 800 staff, the company operates from six strategically located regional offices, with its head office based in Waltham Abbey, Essex.
Hill anticipates completing over 3,000 homes by the close of its current financial year and has a controlled land bank with planning consent for over 8,500 units. Around half of its portfolio is in joint ventures to deliver a range of mixed-tenure developments, reflecting Hill’s commitment to partnerships with government, local authorities, housing associations, and private clients.
Since the company was founded in 1999, Hill has won over 500 industry awards, including the esteemed titles of WhatHouse? Housebuilder of the Year in 2023 and most recently winning silver awards for both Best Large Housebuilder and Best Mixed-Use Development at the 2024 WhatHouse? Awards.
In addition, Hill’s dedication to delivering the highest quality homes and exceptional customer service has earned the housebuilder its 5-star status in the Home Builders Federation’s annual Customer Satisfaction Survey for the past six years.
The Hill Group is donating 200 fully equipped modular homes to local authorities and homeless charities as part of a £15 million pledge through its Foundation 200 programme, launched in 2019 to mark Hill’s 20th anniversary.

And an innovative underground refuse system does away with costly, energy consuming wheelie bin collections. Just one way in which we are reducing carbon consumption and being kind to the planet.
