Design
help for self builders
The
examples illustrated on our web site will hopefully fire your
imagination and provide you with ideas that we can translate
into your dream home. Each home was drawn for a particular
individual or family and therefore represents what was their
ideal for a new home. You will have your own thoughts and
aspirations. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity so why not
let us show you what we can create for you? |

Building
your new home
With
Design & Materials you can choose the build route that
best suits your circumstances. It is generally recognised that
the more you are involved in the building process itself, the
less your build costs are likely to be. However you need to
balance this carefully with the time you can devote to your
project.
The
3 mail building options are:- |
|
|
|
|
'Hands-off'
- Single builder in conjunction with the Design &
Materials service. |
We will arrange the
building work through one of our network builders
leaving you free to get on with your day to day life.
Build costs £700 to £1100 per square metre.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'Hands-on'
- individual trades self managed in conjunction with the
Design & Materials service. |
We will assist you in the
recruitment and management of bona fide subcontractors.
You need to allocate a reasonable amount of your own
time for this option. Build costs £600 to £700 per
square metre.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Project
Manager in conjunction with the Design & Materials
service. |
We will source a Project
Manager who will recruit and manage the various
sub-trades on your behalf for a fixed fee. Build costs
£600 to £700 psm plus 10% for his/her fee. This is
similar to using a single builder but the level of
supervision is usually less.
