Covering Wallasey
Alongside Wallasey, we also cover Birkenhead, Bootle (4 miles to the north-east) and Liverpool.
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 is 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
How much should I budget for a new-build home?

| Standard specification | £2,000 to £2,500 per m² |

Planning and building rules in Wallasey
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 should I think about before starting?
- Utility connections (water, sewer, power) can take months to arrange, so we apply early.
- Planning conditions often need discharging before work starts.
How does the project run?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- Site visit. We walk the plot or existing house, look at access, levels, services and boundaries, and talk through what could be built.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
New-build homes: common questions
Is VAT charged on building a new house?
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 Wallasey 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.
