Our Construction Process
Our process begins with an in-depth feasibility study, considering the unique topography of the Perth area and the specific requirements of the Perth & Kinross Council. Following the conceptual design phase, our in-house engineers conduct rigorous site assessments to address the local soil conditions and drainage requirements. We then move into the detailed planning and architectural submission phase, where we leverage our experience with Scottish planning policy to secure approvals. Once the technical design is finalised, our construction team takes over, operating under strict project management protocols. Throughout the build, we provide regular progress updates and transparent financial reporting. This rigorous, stage-gated approach ensures that every project—whether a bespoke villa or a commercial refurbishment—is delivered on time, within budget, and to an exacting standard of craftsmanship.

We specialise in high-end residential new builds that harmonise with the Perthshire landscape, as well as complex home extensions that require sensitive architectural integration.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a design and build project cost in Perth?
Costs in Perth vary significantly based on the scale of the design and build project. On average, residential renovations and extensions start around £1,800 to £2,500 per square metre. For high-end custom new builds or commercial developments in the Fair City, prices can exceed £3,500 per square metre depending on the materials used and the site's complexity. We provide detailed, transparent cost breakdowns after an initial feasibility study to ensure your budget aligns with your vision.
What is the typical timeline for a turnkey project?
A typical residential project, such as a large extension or a bespoke home, usually takes between 6 to 12 months from the initial design phase to completion. Commercial fit-outs or larger industrial units may follow a different trajectory. In Perth, the timeline is often influenced by the Perth & Kinross Council's planning cycle and the specific ground conditions of the Tay Valley. We manage all scheduling to ensure the most efficient delivery possible.
Do I need planning permission for my project in Perth?
Yes, most significant developments require planning permission from Perth & Kinross Council. This includes new builds, major extensions, and changes of use for commercial properties. Because Perth has several conservation areas, such as the city centre and Bridgend, specialist heritage considerations may apply. Our design and build service includes managing the entire planning application process and ensuring compliance with Scottish Building Standards.
Do you handle both residential and commercial projects?
Absolutely. Design N Build handles a diverse portfolio including residential luxury homes, commercial office refurbishments, and industrial facility developments. Whether you are looking to modernise a retail space on High Street or build a sustainable family home in the Perthshire countryside, our turnkey approach ensures that both the aesthetic and functional requirements of your specific sector are met with precision.
