New Builds in Falmouth
Homes in Falmouth
Falmouth grew up around a harbour on the south coast, and a large share of its houses are older terraces and Victorian homes, many of them on roads that rise sharply from the water. For new builds in Falmouth, that can mean a sloping plot with a steep approach, so tell us early how the road reaches the site and how much level ground there is to work from. Where a plot lies within a conservation area, permitted development allows less, and anything involving a listed building calls for listed building consent. The homeowner whose review appears alongside had us build an extension at their Falmouth home, and they singled out our communication and how quickly the work was finished.
“Miles and Marc carried out an extension at our home in Falmouth. We are so happy we chose them to carry out the building works. From start to finish there work has been top class, there communication is great and the project was finished in brilliant time. If you are planning any building works, we couldn't recommend them enough!”
What matters for new builds in Falmouth
Once we understand the site, the work on new builds in Falmouth moves in clear stages, with our own team doing the building and managing the project. We stay with the house from the ground up until it is complete.
- You tell us what the finished house needs to do and send any drawings or photographs of the plot.
- We talk through the site as it is now, including the slope and how the street approaches it.
- The ground is prepared and the foundations laid, followed by the structural work.
- Our team completes the finishing and manages the job through to the end.
Questions about new builds in Falmouth
Could we extend our Victorian terrace instead of building new?
We do both: home extensions on one or two storeys, and complete new houses, so we can look at either with you. Bear in mind an extension still has to satisfy the Building Regulations on foundations, structure, insulation and drainage, and building control checks it.
What do you need from us before you can price the job?
A description of the plot and the home you want, plus any drawings or photographs you already have. Details of the slope and the street access help us understand the work involved.
