Introducing Self-Build Expert: Personalised Coaching for Your Self-Build Journey

Building your own home is one of the most exciting and rewarding projects you can take on, but it can also be one of the most challenging. From navigating planning and design decisions to managing budgets and coordinating contractors, the process can feel overwhelming without the right support.

That’s why we’re excited to officially launch Self-Build Expert, our new one-to-one coaching service designed to guide self-builders through every step of their project with clarity, confidence, and expert insight.

Why we created Self-Build Expert.

Over the years, we’ve supported countless individuals and families on their self-build journeys. One thing has always been clear: every project is different, and sometimes what people need most is the chance to talk through their options with someone who has real, hands-on experience.

Self-Build Expert was created to do exactly that. Rather than offering generic advice or one-size-fits-all templates, this service gives you direct access to a seasoned self-build professional who understands the realities of delivering successful projects - from the first sketch to the final handover.

What the service includes.

Self-Build Expert is a simple, flexible and practical coaching session designed around your needs. Each booking includes:

1. A 90-minute one-to-one video call

Your session is focused entirely on your project, your questions, and your challenges. You set the agenda; we provide the clarity, expertise, and direction.

2. Personalised, project-specific guidance

Whether you’re at planning stage, managing on-site works, or struggling with a major decision, you’ll receive advice tailored to your goals, not off-the-shelf solutions.

3. Expertise backed by real-world experience

Our coaching is delivered by professionals who have spent years designing, planning, and managing self-builds. We know the pitfalls, the possibilities, and the practical steps that make a build successful.

3. Support that saves time, money, and stress

A single session can help you avoid costly mistakes, make informed decisions, and keep your project moving forward with confidence.

Who is it for?

Self-Build Expert is ideal for:

• First-time self-builders who want reassurance and direction

• Anyone feeling stuck or overwhelmed at a particular stage of their project

• People wanting expert insight before committing to a costly decision

• Self-builders looking to sense-check ideas, designs, or strategies

• Homebuilders who simply want more confidence moving forward

If you’re at the beginning of your journey or deep in the build phase, our personalised coaching offers immediate value.
