Frequently Asked Questions About New Build Construction in Surrey
What types of new build projects do you undertake in Staines and Surrey?
We undertake a wide range of new build construction projects across Staines and the surrounding areas of Surrey, including self-build homes for homeowners who have secured a plot, residential developments from single houses to small estates, and commercial buildings such as offices and industrial units. We work as main contractors or as subcontractors depending on project requirements, and manage everything from groundworks and foundations through to final handover.
What are your typical project timescales?
Project timescales vary depending on size and complexity. A typical three-bedroom new build takes approximately 16-20 weeks from foundation to completion, whilst larger residential developments may take 6-12 months or more. We provide detailed programme schedules during the quotation process and maintain regular progress reporting throughout the build so you always know where your project stands.
Do you handle planning permission and Building Regulations in Surrey?
We manage all aspects of Building Regulations compliance including liaison with Building Control at Spelthorne Borough Council and the relevant Surrey authority for your area. We coordinate all required inspections at key construction stages and ensure your new build meets current building standards. For planning permission, we work alongside your architect or planning consultant and can recommend local professionals if you do not yet have one in place.
What insurance and warranties do you provide?
We carry comprehensive public liability insurance (£2 million), employers’ liability insurance, and professional indemnity cover. All our new build work comes with a 12-month defects liability period during which we rectify any issues at no cost. We can also arrange NHBC or similar structural warranty schemes for residential developments when required by your mortgage provider or lender.
How do you manage health & safety on site?
Health & safety is managed rigorously on every Nelhams & Sons site. We maintain a comprehensive H&S management system including risk assessments, method statements, and regular toolbox talks. All our operatives hold relevant CSCS cards and receive ongoing safety training. We conduct regular safety inspections, maintain detailed incident records, and ensure site welfare facilities and security are in place from day one.
What is your approach to project management and communication?
We assign a dedicated project manager to each contract who acts as your single point of contact throughout the build. You will receive regular progress updates including photographs and programme reports. We hold site meetings with clients and design teams as required, and keep detailed records of all decisions and any variations to the agreed scope. Our clients in Staines, Shepperton, Walton, and across Surrey consistently highlight communication as one of the reasons they recommend us.
