Self-build project management, across East Devon.

Building your own home is a dream for many. Our job is to make sure it doesn't become a nightmare. From the first sketch to the day the keys are handed over, Jigsaw runs the planning, procurement, programme and trades on your behalf so you can stay focused on the project, not the paperwork.

What’s Included

Every self-build project management job, four areas covered as standard.

Scope scales with the project, but these four areas are the spine of any self-build project management engagement with Jigsaw.

01 / 04

Planning & Building Regs

Liaison with the planning authority and building control on your behalf, from validation through to discharge of conditions and final completion certificate.

02 / 04

Trade Procurement

Trades shortlisted, quoted, contracted and scheduled. We work with a known set of East Devon trades who we can vouch for personally.

03 / 04

Cost Reporting

Monthly cost reports against the agreed budget, with value-engineering options laid out before any decision needs to be made.

04 / 04

Warranty & Sign-Off

NHBC, LABC or Self-Build Zone warranties co-ordinated alongside building control sign-off and final handover.

Frequently Asked

Common questions, plainly answered.

When should I bring you in on a self-build?

Earlier is better. The most cost-effective time to engage Jigsaw is at the pre-planning stage, when we can advise on plot suitability, planning probability and rough build costs before you commit to an architect or contractor.

Do I still need an architect?

Yes. Jigsaw doesn't do architectural design. We work alongside your architect (or recommend one of the East Devon practices we trust) and manage the build on the drawings they produce.

What kind of self-builds have you managed?

Single-house plots, replacement dwellings, barn conversions and full new-builds across East Devon, mostly in the 2,000-6,000 sq ft range and £500K to £2M build value.
