Full Build for Tregony (TR2)
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. Tregony sits in Roseland, and that geography ends up in the drawings — Tregony is an AONB former rotten borough at the head of the Fal estuary, with a wide Georgian high street and one of Cornwall's quieter period property markets, with a building stock that leans toward modern AONB-sensitive infill and Victorian villas.
Tregony sits in Roseland — covering TR2 from Veryan outward.

Our process
How a Tregony full build package project runs.
Step 1
Pre-construction
Programme, procurement, contractor briefing and site setup.
Step 2
Substructure
Foundations, drainage, ground beams — the unglamorous bit that decides everything later.
Step 3
Superstructure
Frame, roof, glazing — getting the building watertight.
Step 4
First and second fix
Services, plaster, joinery, kitchens and bathrooms.
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 — We typically have one or two full build package jobs live in the TR2 area at any time, so the local planning officers know our drawings on sight.

Full Build considerations specific to Tregony.
01
Off-grid sites need their own water, drainage and power solutions designed and procured rather than assumed.
02
Cornish trades are a tight community; using contractors who've worked together before saves weeks on programme and arguments on site.
03
Weather windows on Cornish coastal sites are short — getting the building watertight before autumn matters more here than in central England.
04
Single-contract delivery removes the gap between architect's intent and builder's interpretation — fewer change orders, less variation cost.
Local context
Why Tregony is its own job.
In Tregony the planning picture is specific: conservation Area covers the historic high street and church; AONB across the parish. Former borough heritage and listed buildings shape design considerations. For full build package specifically, parts of Tregony sit within a designated Conservation Area, which means materials, fenestration and roof pitches all need to read sympathetically with the existing streetscape; 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; Cornwall Council's Local Plan applies tighter tests to isolated rural dwellings here, so design rationale and policy fit need to be set out clearly from the outset. That local reading is what makes a Tregony (TR2) project different from a generic Cornwall scheme — and is the whole reason we work this way. On modern AONB-sensitive infill in particular — the kind you'll also find toward Grampound — 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
Tregony 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 Tregony specifically, we'd start by checking the Conservation Area boundary 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.
- 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.
- Do you handle the whole project from drawing to finish?
- Yes — that's the model. One contract from feasibility to handover, with design, regs and build all under our roof. No coordination gap between designer and contractor.
