Self build with Design & Materials provides you with a wonderful opportunity to create a home that is unique to you and that is designed to exactly suit your pattern of living. From cottages to mansions, from north to south, from traditional to contemporary and from 'hands-off' to 'hands-on', over four decades our unique service has turned dream homes into real homes.

There has never been a better time to build your own home. Land prices are as low as they have been for years and if you are looking at a replacement project the cost of donor properties are now at a realistic level. The labour quotes we are currently obtaining for existing clients are extremely attractive, as builders in many areas are actively looking for work and therefore pricing competitively – they are also more flexible with start dates. There is currently a window of opportunity for families to realise their dream of building a modern, energy efficient, eco friendly home, designed and built to exactly suit their way they want to live.
