Building around your home

New-build construction in Solihull.

Build your next chapter from the ground up. Discuss the home you want to create, the plans you have and the construction and finishing work involved.

Illustrative new British brick detached home

Build your next chapter.

A home shaped around your plans.

A new build starts with the way you want the finished home to work. Think about the rooms, their connections and the spaces that matter most to your household. We can discuss new-build construction, in-house drawing support, roofing and finishing services. Tell us which stage you have reached so the conversation starts with the actual site and available project information.

Illustrative new British brick detached home

01 / New builds

Start with the home you want to create.

Describe the intended home and the priorities behind the design. You may have settled drawings or be exploring how the rooms should be arranged. Think about everyday routes through the house, the relationship to outside space and the parts of the layout that matter most to you. Our in-house drawing and diagram support can help you explore early ideas. Share existing plans, site information and any advice already obtained so the construction discussion has a clear starting point. The required specialist design, assessments and approvals need to be established for the proposed home and site.

02 / New builds

Consider construction and roofing together.

The proposed building needs its construction and roofing to fit the agreed design. Discuss these as connected parts of the project, alongside information about access and the existing site. We offer building and roofing services for new-build work, with the actual scope and specification confirmed for the proposal. Tell us what information is already available and where further input is needed, rather than assuming an illustration gives a complete design. The responsibilities of the people involved, required technical details and steps before work starts should be agreed for the individual site.

  • Building and roofing services
  • Drawings and specification to confirm
  • Site access and project responsibilities

Plan for the finished spaces.

The rooms you will live in need attention alongside the construction itself. Plastering, flooring, kitchens, bathrooms, doors and windows may all form part of the proposed finish. Explain the result you want and which choices have already been made, so the discussion includes the home beyond its structure. We provide building and finishing services and have contacts for electricians and other trades where needed. Confirm what is included, what requires specialist input and which decisions remain open. Costs and timing should follow the actual design and specification rather than a standard package suggested by a website image.

A useful starting point

Bring your ideas.
We’ll talk them through.

Send the location of the proposed site, the type of home you have in mind and the stage you have reached. Include plans, approval information or advice already available, without treating them as evidence that every requirement has been satisfied. Mention access, important design priorities and the decisions still to make. You can contact us during the early discussion, but the appropriate design, assessments and approvals need confirming for the site before work proceeds.

    Discuss specification, access and the decisions needed next. Costs, timing and the proposed work should be agreed for the actual site and project.

Before we begin

Your questions.
A clearer picture.

For advice about the work you are considering, tell us about your own property.

Can I get in touch while the design is still developing?

Yes. Explain the home you want to create and which decisions remain open. In-house drawing and diagram support can help with early plans, while specialist design and assessments need confirming for the project.

Can you work from plans I already have?

Share the plans and any associated specification, advice or approval information with your enquiry. We can discuss the construction and finishing services involved, with the suitability and completeness of the project information confirmed for the site.

Does your service include roofing and internal finishes?

Building, roofing, plastering and flooring services can be discussed as part of new-build work. Tell us about the whole proposed home, then agree which work and specialist trades are included in the scope.

Do you have contacts for electricians and other trades?

Yes. We have contacts for electricians and other trades where the project needs them. Confirm their roles, responsibilities and scope as part of arranging the work; the website does not claim that every specialist is an in-house team member.

What about planning permission and building control?

The applicable planning and building-control requirements need establishing for the site and proposed home. Send any existing information and confirm the required advice and approvals before proceeding. The project guide provides links to official starting-point resources.

Can you provide a fixed new-build cost or duration?

The design, site, access, specification and agreed scope affect both. Describe the actual proposal and your priorities so these can be discussed. This page does not publish a standard new-build price, duration or completion guarantee.
