What approvals does a new-build home need in Wales?

Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.

This needs full planning permission from your council in Wales. We prepare and submit the application and deal with the planning officer on your behalf.

What can affect a new-build home?

  • Self-builders can usually reclaim VAT on certain materials through HMRC’s DIY housebuilders scheme where they buy them directly.
  • Planning conditions often need discharging before work starts.

What are the steps?

  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. Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
  4. Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
