New Builds
Southampton

Pure Renovation & Design has been delivering new builds in Southampton and across Hampshire for over 18 years. Groundwork, shell, first and second fix, internal fit-out, external landscaping, every stage handled in-house by the same core team. Five stars on every review, fifty plus homes transformed, and most of our work comes from past client and architect referrals. That is the honest measure of whether a new build contractor is actually any good.

A typical new build in Southampton runs nine to fifteen months from site start to handover. Groundwork takes roughly eight to twelve weeks, shell another twelve to sixteen, first and second fix another sixteen to twenty, then fit-out and externals. Weather, ground conditions, and specification can shift the programme, so we build realistic contingency into every written schedule.

Yes. Architect liaison, planning submissions, structural engineer coordination, building control, groundwork, shell, every trade, every delivery, fit-out, landscaping, final sign off. One point of contact, one contractor, one invoice at each agreed stage. You never coordinate trades. You never chase the next man on site. That is the job.

Yes. We work alongside architects and planning consultants to submit, negotiate, and secure full planning permission. Where conditions are attached, we handle discharge. We also manage building regulations approval and all building control inspections throughout the build, right through to the completion certificate you will need when you eventually sell.

Most custom new builds in Southampton land between £250,000 and £750,000 depending on size, specification, and site complexity. Build cost per square metre typically runs £1,800 to £3,200 for quality specification. A detailed written quote breaks that number down by stage (groundwork, shell, first fix, second fix, fit-out, externals) so you see exactly where every pound is going before you commit.

We deliver new builds in Southampton, Winchester, Fareham, Eastleigh, Locks Heath, Hedge End, Bitterne, Totton, Chandlers Ford, Romsey, Alton, Basingstoke, Park Gate, and into Surrey. If your site sits in or around Hampshire, we can come out for a free feasibility visit.

Yes, and this is how most of our new builds in Southampton come about. If you own the plot, we will visit, review the planning status, and tell you honestly what is buildable, what it will cost, and whether the site has any constraints (access, drainage, ground conditions, overlooking issues) that will affect the design or budget. All before any fees change hands.

Look for three things. A written quote that breaks the project down by stage, not one lump sum. Finished new build projects you can actually visit or see in detail (not just renders). And a contractor who will still answer the phone a year after handover when a small defect appears under the NHBC or structural warranty period.
