CareHomeDeskCareHomeDeskWhat it is
CareHomeDesk is a practical property intelligence platform built specifically for UK care providers — combining project planning, specialist knowledge, product guidance, independent cost benchmarking, practical resources and sector news in one place.
Plan work clearly
Describe a project in plain English and receive a structured scope of works, key assumptions, outstanding questions, care-specific risks and an indicative budget — ready to develop into a contractor brief.
Understand what it should cost
Independent cost benchmarks and pricing guidance give you a reliable number before contractor quotations arrive.
Specify with confidence
Understand the standards, products and practical considerations that apply specifically to care homes, so specifications are based on evidence rather than assumption.
Stay informed
Keep up with the latest developments affecting care property — fire safety, water hygiene, building products, legislation and sector news in one place.
Why it exists & who built it
Managing a care home means making decisions about buildings every day, even if property is not your role. That expertise is normally spread across different trades, companies and conversations — taking time most care providers don’t have.
CareHomeDesk brings that expertise together in one place, so you can work with contractors from a position of knowledge rather than uncertainty.
