Rules for new builds and self-builds in Wales
For a new home in Wales, windows and doors are approved through the build’s own building control application: the limiting value is 1.4 W/m²K, stricter than England. The house itself needs planning permission.
VAT: supply and fitting by a VAT-registered contractor in the construction of a new home is normally zero-rated, so new-build guide prices are shown without VAT; supply-only purchases carry 20% VAT, which self-builders can usually reclaim through HMRC’s DIY housebuilders scheme.
How it works
The surveyor measures every opening, checks ventilation, escape windows and safety-glass zones, and talks through styles. Your written quote lists each item with its glass build-up and U-value, and the price is fixed for that specification.
- Free survey and a written quote fixed for the specification
- Glass build-up and whole-window U-value on every quote
- Written handover pack at the end of the job
- Guarantees on frames, units and fitting in writing
