WHAT SHAPES THE FIGURE?

Three choices. A more personal estimate.

Your location & site

Access, ground conditions, delivery and local labour costs all help shape your budget.

Your involvement

Choose a main contractor, coordinate individual trades, or contribute suitable work yourself.

Your specification

Cladding, roofing, heating, kitchens and finishes give you choices about where to spend.

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO BUILD?

Compare the three procurement options.

The estimator lets you explore the balance between your involvement and the cost of completing your home.

A contractor coordinates

Main Contractor / Turnkey

A main contractor manages the build, coordinating the trades and programme within the agreed scope.

What this means for you

You make the key decisions about your home, with a main point of contact for delivery. Agree what the contract includes before comparing quotations.

You coordinate the trades

Organised Subcontractor

You appoint individual trades and organise their work, taking a more active role in costs and timing.

What this means for you

You manage appointments, purchasing and the programme. Allow time for coordination and get support where you need it.

You also contribute work

DIY Self Build

You manage the build and undertake suitable work yourself, with potential to reduce the overall cost.

What this means for you

Plan around your skills and available time. Use qualified trades where required and allow for work you will need others to complete.

Why our prices show “Full Build Cost From”

THE WIDER PICTURE

Plan for the whole project.

Your build estimate is a starting point. Check what it covers, then allow for the other costs relevant to your project.

What does Supply + Erect include? →
Plot, surveys & permissions

Consider your land purchase, site investigations, professional fees and consent costs. Check which allowances are included in your estimate.

Groundworks, access & services

Review foundations, drainage, service connections and access for deliveries against the conditions on your plot.

Finishes & outside spaces

Allow for your chosen finishes, driveways, paths and landscaping, checking them against the scope of your build estimate.

A reserve for the unexpected

Include a contingency appropriate to your project and refine it as surveys, designs and contractor quotations become available.

Build Approaches

Choose the approach that best suits your experience, timeline, and budget. Each method offers different levels of involvement and project control.

Let a single contractor handle your entire project from foundations to completion. Ideal for clients who want one main point of responsibility and less day-to-day involvement.

  • Fixed-price contracts may be available
  • Project insurance managed through the contract
  • Professional project management
  • New-home warranty arrangements agreed with the contractor

Organised Subcontractor

Appoint and coordinate individual trades yourself, retaining more control over costs and timing while taking on greater management responsibility.

  • Direct relationships with individual trades
  • Competitive tendering opportunities
  • Greater control over scheduling
  • Clear visibility of trade costs
  • Requires active coordination and oversight

DIY Self Build

Manage the trades, suppliers and programme yourself. This route offers maximum involvement and flexibility but requires significant time, experience and organisation.

  • Direct control of purchasing and appointments
  • Flexible programme and specification choices
  • Potential savings on management costs
  • Client responsible for coordination and quality control
  • Best suited to experienced or well-supported self-builders
