What is a knock down and rebuild?

Knock down and rebuild means demolishing an existing house and building a new one in its place, often a bungalow or poorly built post-war house replaced by a larger, more efficient home. Because the new house counts as a new dwelling, the build is usually zero-rated for VAT.

  • Feasibility: rebuild versus extend and renovate
  • Demolition and site clearance
  • New foundations, structure and full fit-out

What happens after I enquire?

  1. Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
  2. Site visit. We walk the plot or existing house, look at access, levels, services and boundaries, and talk through what could be built.
  3. Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
  4. Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
