Full Build for Godrevy (TR27)

Once drawings are approved, the build is the bit that decides whether you get the home you imagined or a frustrating compromise. We deliver projects on a single contract — design, drawings, approvals and construction — so the team that drew it is the team that builds it. Godrevy sits in West Cornwall, and that geography ends up in the drawings — Godrevy is a holiday-coast settlement in the TR27 area, with strong second-home demand and exposed coastal building conditions, with a building stock that leans toward detached houses and coastal bungalows.

Godrevy sits in West Cornwall — covering TR27 from Hayle, Angarrack, Phillack outward.

  • Coastal exposure zone

Our process

How a Godrevy full build package project runs.

  1. Step 1

    Pre-construction

    Programme, procurement, contractor briefing and site setup.

  2. Step 2

    Substructure

    Foundations, drainage, ground beams — the unglamorous bit that decides everything later.

  3. Step 3

    Superstructure

    Frame, roof, glazing — getting the building watertight.

  4. Step 4

    First and second fix

    Services, plaster, joinery, kitchens and bathrooms.

  5. Step 5

    Snag and handover

    Final inspection, building control sign-off, handover pack and aftercare.

Full builds run from twelve weeks for small extensions to eighteen months for new build family homes.

Local proof — Most Godrevy homeowners come to us after a full build package quote elsewhere felt vague on planning — we lead with feasibility instead.

What we focus on

Full Build considerations specific to Godrevy.

  • 01

    Weather windows on Cornish coastal sites are short — getting the building watertight before autumn matters more here than in central England.

  • 02

    Single-contract delivery removes the gap between architect's intent and builder's interpretation — fewer change orders, less variation cost.

  • 03

    Material lead times to Cornwall are longer than the M5 corridor; sequencing orders early protects the build programme.

  • 04

    Off-grid sites need their own water, drainage and power solutions designed and procured rather than assumed.

Local context

Why Godrevy is its own job.

In Godrevy the planning picture is specific: planning scrutiny often focuses on visual impact, occupancy, parking, overlooking and whether replacement buildings respect the coastal edge. For full build package specifically, the surrounding landscape falls inside the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, so massing, height and landscape impact carry extra weight in any planning decision; coastal salt-laden air around Godrevy drives detailing choices — fixings, render systems and timber treatments all need to be specified for exposure. That local reading is what makes a Godrevy (TR27) project different from a generic Cornwall scheme — and is the whole reason we work this way. On detached houses in particular — the kind you'll also find toward Connor Downs — the full build package brief always has to read the existing fabric first.

Planning note

Build delivery doesn't need planning, but planning conditions often dictate site setup, materials and working hours — we read every condition and build the programme around them.

FAQs

Godrevy Full Build — local questions answered.

Are you insured?
Public liability, employer's liability and contractor's all-risks cover are in place for every project, with certificates available before contract signing. In Godrevy specifically, we'd start by checking AONB landscape sensitivity before committing to a direction.
Can you build from someone else's drawings?
Yes, with a review. We'll happily build from approved drawings produced elsewhere, after a technical review to confirm the design holds up at construction stage.
How do you handle changes during the build?
Weekly client meetings, written change requests, costed and signed before work proceeds. No surprise invoices.
What guarantees and aftercare do you offer?
Standard twelve-month defects period, plus product and workmanship warranties on relevant elements. We're a Cornish business — you'll still find us in the same studio in five years' time.
Fixed price or open book?
Both. Fixed price suits well-defined projects with clear specs; open book suits renovations and listed work where the unknowns only reveal themselves once you start opening things up. We'll recommend the right route.

Every Godrevy full build package we work on is treated as a TR27 job in its own right — local fabric, local policy, local builders.
