Programs

Construction business programs for UK builders

One system from a working construction company, four levels. Find the level that matches where your business is today — and move up when you’re ready. Taught by an operator who runs his own construction company, not a coach.

One method, four levels

The same system Craftex runs on — at a bigger scale each level

Every program installs the same four blocks, step by step, inside your real business. You always know where you are and what the next level adds.

01WinPositioning your company, finding clients beyond referrals, and a clear process for selling projects.
02Price & protectPricing every job for margin, contracts and payment terms that protect your cash.
03DeliverRunning jobs on programme, capturing variations, keeping project cash flow under control.
04LeadBuilding a team and a management layer so the business doesn’t depend on you for everything.
The programs

What each program includes

Level 1 · Self-study

Construction Business Accelerator Light

£2,900 one-off
Self-paced · 1 call with Sviat · 30-day plan

What it is

The Accelerator system recorded, so you can work through it at your own pace. Not a generic course: it’s built from how Sviat works with his clients, including recordings of real client calls where live deals, quotes and contracts are broken down.

What’s included

  • The recorded system: setting up your company properly, winning your first projects, pricing with margin, contracts and payment terms
  • Recordings of real client calls — deals, quotes and contracts broken down by Sviat
  • The Craftex document library: client and subcontractor contracts, payment and valuation templates, estimating templates, project and H&S documents — add your logo and use them
  • One call with Sviat to set your 30-day plan
  • The £2,900 is credited if you move up to an Accelerator within 30 days
Who it’s for: tradespeople on the tools (employed or self-employed) earning up to £50K a year, or people entering construction who want the foundations before committing further.
Level 2 · 6 weeks

Accelerator Foundation

By application
6 weeks · weekly live group calls · 2 one-to-ones with Sviat

What it is

Six weeks to put the foundation of a proper construction business in place — how you present, price and run jobs — and leave with a clear 90-day plan for what to do next.

What we work on

  • Your company packaged to win better clients: brand, website, messaging and case studies
  • A pricing system: estimating templates, margin on every quote, payment terms that protect your cash
  • Pipeline and project cash flow basics
  • Weekly live group call for 6 weeks, plus one-to-ones with Sviat at the start and the end
  • Your personal 90-day plan — run it with us or on your own
  • Everything in Light
Who it’s for: owners at £50–150K turnover, 0–2 people, Ltd company set up and already getting jobs and signing clients — but no clear plan yet for growing with a team and structure.
Most popularLevel 3 · 4 months

Construction Business Accelerator

By application
4 months · weekly group call · monthly one-to-one · max 20 clients

What it is

Our main program for owners who are getting work but are stuck doing everything themselves. The focus: moving from small jobs to bigger jobs at full price, getting the owner off the tools and a team doing the work — for projects up to about £100K.

What we work on

  • Finding clients without paid ads: outreach, LinkedIn, architects & partners, low-cost lead platforms
  • Selling at full price and landing larger jobs
  • Your first hire and a team that delivers
  • A weekly numbers report so you know your real margin
  • 1-hour onboarding call, weekly live group call with Sviat, a 30-minute one-to-one every month
  • Done for you: our team builds your website and installs the Craftex CRM (pipeline, follow-ups, review requests)
Who it’s for: construction or trade business owners at £150–500K turnover, 2+ people, at least a year trading. Builders, refurbishment, decorators, joiners, electricians, plumbers, roofers, landscapers.
FlagshipLevel 4 · 4 months

Main Contractor Accelerator

By application
4 months · weekly group call · 2 one-to-ones a month · max 10 clients

What it is

Sviat’s own route with Craftex: from small jobs to £100K–£1M+ projects as a premium main contractor, including design & build. We measure progress in project size, margin and how much the business depends on you — not just turnover.

What we work on

  • Finding, pricing and tendering big projects; negotiation; a tender deck
  • Cash flow, variations and delivery control on large jobs
  • Hiring an estimator and a project manager; running the company remotely
  • Paid ads (Google, Meta) for premium clients
  • 1-hour onboarding, weekly group call, two 30-minute one-to-ones with Sviat a month to go through your quotes, tenders and contracts
  • Done for you: website + the Craftex CRM
Who it’s for: owners at £500K+ turnover, a team of 3–5+, average job £20K+, who want to become a design & build or main contractor. This program teaches one model — Sviat’s own.

Prices for programs marked “by application” are confirmed on a free call, once we know your business and whether the program is the right fit.

FAQ

Questions builders ask

How much does construction business coaching cost?

The self-study Accelerator Light is £2,900. Accelerator Foundation, the Construction Business Accelerator and the Main Contractor Accelerator are by application — we confirm the fit and the investment on a free 1-on-1 call, based on your business.

Which program is right for me?

It depends on your turnover and team. On the tools or under £50K: Light. £50–150K: Foundation. £150–500K with a small team: the Construction Business Accelerator. £500K+ and you want to become a main contractor: the Main Contractor Accelerator. If you’re unsure, apply for a free call and we’ll tell you honestly — including if none of them fits.

Who runs the programs?

Sviat Jay (Sviatoslav Jerdetchii), who started as a demolition labourer and runs Craftex, a London design & build company. You learn the system his own company runs on.

Is this a course?

No. You implement one step at a time in your own business, with feedback in our community chat and on calls. Light is self-paced, but it’s built from real client calls and Craftex’s own documents.

Do you guarantee results?

No. We give you the system, the documents, the feedback and the calls. What you get out of it depends on your business, your market and the work you put in. The results shown on this site are individual results, not typical or guaranteed.

Do you give us leads?

We teach you to win your own clients. Occasionally, when Craftex gets an enquiry that fits, Sviat passes it to clients who are actively doing the work — but this is never promised or part of any program.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. If you move up from Light to an Accelerator within 30 days, the £2,900 is credited.

Important: BizMentor provides business education and mentoring for construction and trade business owners. Results shown on this website, including client screenshots, videos and figures, are individual results and are not typical. We do not promise or guarantee any specific income, profit, turnover or project size. Your results depend on many factors, including your business, market conditions, experience and the effort you put in. Nothing on this website is financial, legal, tax or accounting advice — please take professional advice for your own situation.
