New-build homes in Prestwich

Covering Prestwich

We work in Prestwich (M25) and the places around it, including Whitefield, Radcliffe and Salford.

Homes in the North West

Terraced housing is a defining feature of many North West towns, which brings party walls and narrow access into most projects, with more space to extend on suburban semis.

What does a new-build home involve?

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.

New-build homes	Guide price

Good specification	£2,500 to £3,000 per m²
High specification	£3,000 to £3,600 per m²

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

In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.

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 should Prestwich homeowners check first?

Utility connections (water, sewer, power) can take months to arrange, so we apply early.
Planning conditions often need discharging before work starts.
