There was a double garage in that cost in oak/timber 7x6m In that case it’s probably very similar to the prices I have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sjk 7 Posted January 26, 2020 18 minutes ago, Russell griffiths said: I went out for a drink with 2 very reputable builders last nigh, both fully booked for a year. They said they are pricing at £1500 a m at the moment, for shell only, so wind and watertight with first fix electrics and plumbing, second fix joinery. But no kitchen bathrooms, en-suite, tiling etc. They said they are getting asked for this more and more as people are finding prices out of their reach, so it gives them the opportunity to finish as and when they can. ties with my experience too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1983 6 Posted February 6, 2020 I’ve had the drawings tweaked to how we want so going to try and get some quotes without building regs and see how they turn out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1983 6 Posted February 9, 2020 Fingers crossed first builder coming round to look tomorrow and thinks between 190-220k but not including demo of current bungalow so will see what he says Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1983 6 Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Well looking like we are back on track with budget etc. fingers crossed we can do the house and garage build within budget. will hopefully get the quote by Friday but approx 200k for house inc 10kish for existing bungalow demolition. Just depends if national park will let us use UPVC windows or if they need to be wood which will bump the price up so back to £1500 sq mtr, this is for turn key including decorating Edited February 10, 2020 by Dan1983 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan1983 6 Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) It’s a guide at the moment but he couldn’t see it being much more than 200k for the build (house not garage) biggest variable is windows at the moment it seems but I will find out by Friday quote is fixed price. construction just normal brick with slate roof, Elliot’s/ Howdens type kitchen and bathroom etc. Edited February 10, 2020 by Dan1983 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1983 6 Posted February 22, 2020 Quote all back now, Came in at 229k for house inc bathrooms and kitchen. That is with rads and combi boiler, looking to see how much underfloor heating and air source heat pump would add to the quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1983 6 Posted March 1, 2020 Builder back round tomorrow, house came in at 229k as overall footprint was 159m2. Have reduced slightly as changed bi folds in lounge to a normal 3 bay window. unfortunately looking like garage will be over budget at 35-40k so will need to maybe make some moves away from oak frame etc as garage budget needs to be 25-30k with the cost of the house.

Dan1983 6 Posted March 3, 2020 For anyone still interested had a good chat yesterday and managed to get house and garage in at 259k. Working out just over £1400m2 Need to decide heating as not sold on a combi, going to find out cost of unvented system boiler with 200ltr tank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PDR 1 Posted July 1, 2020 Dan1983, Have you progressed any further? How did the figures for the ground source heat pump stack up against the boiler and rads? Thanks PDR 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jsgreen 1 Posted July 17, 2020 Yeah. I'd be interested in hearing where things are at too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
