Guide to Building Your New Home | Cowley Construction

How do you navigate the complex process of building your own home? If you’re looking to construct new builds in Lower Hutt, you will need professional new home builders in Wellington – like ourselves at Cowley Construction.

In fact, this step-by-step guide will tell you everything that you need to know about building your new home:

  1. Purchase Land

Before you can even begin designing your new home, you will first need a plot of land for your new home to be built on. The land you buy can affect the design and layout of your home, so make sure that you secure land that is right for your needs. Also consider:

  • Local council rules for building on the land
  • Geotechnical reports
  • Slopes (you may need excavation services if the land is sloping)
  1. Design/Style

Once your plot of land is secured and you’ve confirmed that you’re allowed to build on the land, you can then begin to think about your house plan/design. At Cowley Construction, we can help design and plan a house that suits your lifestyle, requirements, and preferences, taking into account the land itself. From the position of windows to the interior layout, this stage is important in making sure that your new home is designed to your tastes.

  1. Finance/Budget

You will also need to consider how to finance your new build project. If you can afford to pay for the project out of your own pocket, then there’s nothing else that you need to worry about (apart from setting aside a contingency fund, just in case!).

However, if you still require financial assistance, government support is also available, especially for first home buyers.

  1. Hiring Builders

To get the project underway, you’ll need to hire contractors from a respected company. Rest assured that the team at Cowley Construction can assist with all of your new build needs! We are committed to delivering high standards of work, and you can rely on us to listen and meet your needs.
