New Home Construction in Taunton SW — Foundations for Your New Build

New home construction substructures are needed for every new build, whether a single home or a development. They suit homeowners, developers, and builders who want a single point of contact for the substructure.

Typical new home construction projects include single new builds, residential developments, and self-build foundations.

New home construction covers the below-ground works that support a new house: foundations, drainage, retaining walls, and groundworks. We deliver these packages from initial design through to DPC, with the engineering handled in-house. Because we design and build the substructure as one package, the new build moves without waiting on a third party, and the foundation is specified for the actual ground, not a generic assumption.

We assess the ground and the structural requirements, then design the substructure package. Our team constructs the foundations, drainage, and groundworks, carrying the work through to DPC. We coordinate with building control throughout.

New home construction substructure cost depends on the foundation type, the ground conditions, the size of the structure, and the below-ground complexity. Access and the programme also affect cost. We provide a fixed quote within 48 hours of the site visit.

Do you build the whole house or just the foundations?

We deliver the substructure — the foundations, drainage, and groundworks up to DPC. The superstructure above DPC is usually built by a separate builder. Because we focus on the substructure, we do it well, and we hand over a level, correctly founded base for the rest of the build.
