Covering Dudley

Dudley is about 8 miles west of Birmingham. We also cover Brierley Hill (2 miles to the south-west), Tipton and Halesowen.

Homes in the West Midlands

Red-brick terraces and inter-war semis make up much of the housing in the West Midlands, which suits rear extensions, dormer lofts and hip-to-gable conversions, with more modern estates on the edges of the towns.

What is included in a new-build home in Dudley?

A new-build home is a house built from the ground up on a plot, whether a one-off self-build for your family or a small group of homes. Building a new dwelling is usually zero-rated for VAT when carried out by a VAT-registered builder, which is a major cost difference from extensions and renovations.

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

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. We prepare the drawings and supporting documents, submit the application and respond to the planning officer.

What can affect a new-build home?

Most lenders want a structural warranty or architect’s certificate on a new home.
Planning conditions often need discharging before work starts.
