Whatever its style or size, your dream home will be a bespoke design, carefully tailored to meet your needs. There is no need to compromise on style or features. You decide the number, size and shape of rooms you require. You can choose the layouts that suit you best for bathrooms and kitchens: and details like the architraves and the position of doors and windows. Even the exterior finish - be it brick, tile hung, timber cladding, stonework, Tudor, or render - will be up to you. You can totally design your new home from floor to ceiling with help from our advisory service. Or, you can take one of our standard house designs and make any alteration you desire to achieve individuality. Our policy of flexibility also allows you to plan ahead when you are selecting your timber frame package. For instance, a growing family inevitably creates the need for more space, so we can make provisions for future home extensions, or use Attic trusses to allow you to create usable rooms in the loft at a later stage (subject to building regulations).
