About Robin Hayhurst

Construction Business Mentor · Former Managing Director

I ran Court Homes to a £12–14 million turnover. In 2015, it went under. I went down fighting — not just for myself, but for our contractors and suppliers too.

From the outside, a company going bust looks like a business problem. From the inside, it’s anguish. Unless you’ve lived it, you cannot understand the pressure it puts on you, your family, and your team.

I came back. I built another company. And through that journey, I discovered my real purpose: helping construction business owners avoid the mistakes I made.

Everything I got wrong is now a system or tool designed to stop it happening to you. I don’t coach you to “find answers” — I give you what actually works in the real world.

Is this mentoring right for you?

This programme works best when there’s alignment. Use the criteria below to decide if it’s a good fit.

This mentoring is for you if:

  • You run a construction business and feel stuck firefighting
  • You want structure, clarity, and control — not motivation talks
  • You are profitable, but know it could be better
  • You want systems that work on real sites, not theory

This is not for you if:

  • You are looking for a quick fix or overnight growth
  • You want “coaching conversations” instead of practical tools
  • You are not willing to change how the business is run
