At this moment in time, you are on the threshold of realising a dream. Your project is a broad, clean canvas on which to create your perfect home. This is an exciting time, but we appreciate that it can also be a daunting one, and this is why we are on hand to help you throughout the entire process.

Once you have decided that you would like to build your own Scandia-Hus home, we will allocate a team to work with you, headed by your own personal Project Manager, who will be responsible for discussing your specific requirements - site opportunities and constraints, possible planning or aesthetic restrictions, cost implications, build options, builders’ tenders, finance, insurance, and much more. In brief, he will be guiding you through the whole project from start to finish.

But before you get that far you will no doubt want to get a clearer idea of what is involved. In simple terms, there are five main stages to any self-build project, and these are :-

Step One:	Decide that you want to build your own home
Step Two:	Start turning your ideas into reality
Step Three:	Sort out your budgets and finance
Step Four:	Plan your project
Step Five:	Decide how to undertake your build

This may all seem a little overwhelming at first, but don’t be put off. For details on each of the above steps, please click HERE for our Fact Sheet No.7 entitled ‘Five-Point Plan’. This will give you a clearer idea of where to start.

Once you have read and digested this information, we would suggest you telephone us to make an appointment to visit our Sussex Show Centre. Here you will be able to explore our fully furnished show-houses in a relaxed and unhurried manner, with experienced staff on hand to answer any questions.
