Homes in the South East
The South East has a lot of 1930s and post-war semi-detached housing, well suited to rear extensions and hip-to-gable loft conversions, alongside period properties in conservation areas that need a more careful design.
What goes into a new-build home?
We can take a plot from feasibility through planning, detailed design, building regulations, construction and handover, or build to a design and planning permission you already have. The structure can be traditional masonry or timber frame, and we work to the energy and ventilation rules that apply to new homes in each nation.
- Plot appraisal and feasibility
- Building regulations design and warranty liaison
- Groundworks, services and drainage connections

Do you need permission for a new-build home in Beaconsfield?
English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.
This needs full planning permission from the council.
What can change the price or programme?
- Utility connections (water, sewer, power) can take months to arrange, so we apply early.
- Self-builders can usually reclaim VAT on certain materials through HMRC’s DIY housebuilders scheme where they buy them directly.
What are the steps?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- Site visit. We walk the plot or existing house, look at access, levels, services and boundaries, and talk through what could be built.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.

Building a new dwelling is usually zero-rated when done by a VAT-registered builder. We confirm the position for your project.
Can you help with planning on a plot?
Yes. We appraise the plot, prepare the design and submit the application.
Can you visit a house in Beaconsfield to quote?
Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
