We design a lot of self/custom build homes for our clients. These range in size and style, as they are bespoke designs to fit your specific needs and lifestyle. These range from modern 'Passivhaus' style houses (top left), to more traditional Oak frame and Flint houses (top right). If you are interested in having your own home designed, please read the following information then get in touch with us to discuss your ideas further! Our self build process is as follows:
Initial Contact:
To start the process we will have a free of charge, obligation-free meeting to discuss your project, give you an idea of the services we offer, and how we can help you. This may be done virtually (via Zoom/Skype) or over the telephone. After this, we will send you a formal fee quotation so you can see exactly what services we are providing.
Agree Fees:
After the initial meeting/conversation, we will send you our 'Project Pack' which will contain our Schedule of Fees, Project Guidance (including relevant third party fees), Instruction Form, fees for Optional and Supplementary services and our Terms and Conditions. If you are happy to proceed, we will be pleased to receive your signed Instruction Form and initial deposit payment.
