Quality products & services

From structural materials through to eco insulations, sliding doors, smart home tech and more, there’s nothing quite like seeing and experiencing a product in person to understand whether it’s the right fit for you.

At Build It Live, you’ll see a huge range of options firsthand – and in many cases you can interact with them much like you would in a showroom. Open and close windows; slide glazed doors along their tracks; feel the quality of handmade bricks, timber claddings and other external finishes; see the latest heat pump solutions; and gain a deep insight into all the components that will go into your completed bespoke home.

Crucially, you’ll get to do all of that while benefitting from the guiding hand of expert suppliers. How many opportunities do you get to speak to multiple timber frame, glazing, heating, insulation, airtightness, kitchen, staircase and flooring (the list goes on!) specialists all under one roof? At Build It Live, you can not only compare and contrast the product options, but also meet the partners you’ll be working with on what’s likely to be the biggest and most personal project you’ll ever undertake.

These are experts in their fields and, importantly, they’ve worked on countless home building projects. So they’ve been there, done it and got the T-shirt! That means you can expect tried-and-trusted advice from experienced professionals, running the whole gamut from architects to house manufacturers, warranty providers, energy specialists, roofers, lighting suppliers and more!
