New-build and self-build projects in London are constrained by plot scarcity, Green Belt and local plan policies. Most homeowners we speak to are extending or converting; a minority replace a dwelling or build on garden land where policy allows.

Planning permission is almost always required. Design, access, flooding and neighbour amenity are typical issues. Building Regulations and warranties apply to the finished home.

We publish guides and can introduce you to independent builders who advertise with us. Home Builders does not design or construct new homes.

Questions

Can I build a new house in my garden?

Garden and backland development is tightly controlled in London. Policies vary by borough; many applications are refused. Speak to the council’s planning team early.

Do you build new homes?

No. Home Builders is a guides and introductions site. With your consent we pass enquiries to independent builders.
