FAQs

How long does it take to build a new home from start to finish?

Construction timelines vary based on size, complexity, and site conditions. A typical 3-4 bedroom new build generally takes 9-12 months from groundbreaking to completion. This includes 2-3 months for foundations and structure, 3-4 months for building envelope and services, and 3-4 months for interior finishing. We provide detailed project schedules during planning and deliver regular progress updates throughout construction.

Do you help with planning permission for new builds?

Yes, we provide comprehensive planning support for new build projects. Our team works closely with professional planning consultants to prepare and submit applications, respond to queries, and address any conditions. With extensive experience navigating local planning requirements in Cheltenham, Gloucester and surrounding areas, we help optimize your chances of approval while managing the entire process on your behalf.

What warranties and guarantees come with your new build homes?

All our new build properties come with a comprehensive 10-year structural warranty through industry-recognized providers. Additionally, we provide a 2-year developer's warranty covering general defects. Individual components such as windows, doors, appliances, and heating systems carry manufacturer warranties which we transfer to you upon completion. We conduct thorough inspections at handover and schedule follow-up visits at 6 months and 12 months to address any settling issues.

Can I customize the design and specification of my new build?

Absolutely. Our bespoke approach allows for complete customization throughout your new build project. We work closely with you to incorporate your preferences for layout, room sizes, window placements, and overall design. You'll have extensive input on specification choices including kitchen designs, bathroom fixtures, flooring materials, decorative finishes, and technology integration. We provide expert guidance while ensuring your new home perfectly reflects your vision and lifestyle.

What is the typical cost per square meter for a new build home?

New build costs in Gloucestershire typically range from £1,800-£3,000 per square meter, depending on specification level, site conditions, and architectural complexity. Standard quality builds average £1,800-£2,200/m², mid-range quality £2,200-£2,600/m², and premium quality £2,600-£3,000+/m². These figures cover construction costs from foundations to completion. Additional costs include land purchase, planning fees, utility connections, landscaping, and professional fees which we outline clearly in our detailed quotations.

How energy efficient are your new build homes?

We construct homes that exceed current energy efficiency standards, typically achieving EPC ratings of A or B. Our standard specification includes high-performance insulation, energy-efficient heating systems, double or triple glazing, and effective draft-proofing. We can incorporate additional eco-friendly features such as solar panels, air source heat pumps, smart home technology, and rainwater harvesting systems based on your preferences and budget considerations.

Do you work with architects or can you recommend one?

We're happy to work with your chosen architect or recommend experienced professionals from our trusted network. For clients without existing plans, we collaborate with several respected Gloucestershire-based architectural practices that align with different styles and budget levels. Our established relationships with local architects ensure a smooth design-to-construction transition, with regular communication throughout the project to maintain design integrity while addressing practical construction considerations.

How involved can I be during the construction process?

We welcome your involvement throughout the building process. Most clients participate in regular site meetings to review progress and discuss upcoming decisions. We schedule key milestone inspections at foundation completion, roof installation, and before internal walls are closed up. You'll have direct access to your project manager for questions and updates between meetings. We also provide photo documentation and digital updates for clients who cannot visit the site regularly.
