Self Build

Every year up to 20000 people build their own homes and here at Costhorpe Building Products Ltd we recognise that this may be a daunting prospect for the first time builder. We understand the time constraints and pressures of running your own project and it is our aim to make the self build process go as smoothly as possible by offering the following self build service:

• At the initial enquiry stage a free of charge take off service for all your Walling, Cast Stone and Landscape product requirements, followed by a no obligation price quotation.
• Providing a feature design service, which turns your architect’s designs into working drawings and reality.
• Advice given where ever possible on installation and fixing components.
• Liaison with your builders on site to ensure deliveries arrive when required.
