Self-Build Kit Homes + Houses

Increasingly, Self-Builders are becoming more 'hands on', with both the project management and the actual build programme. As such Benfield ATT's service can be tailored as such to deliver an individually-designed Benfield ATT 'Easy Timber Frame' kit home to your site, ready for you to erect.


Benfield ATT Kit Homes are designed from scratch, by you. Of course, these come labelled with a full set of technical engineered instructions, and we always offer a Shell Erection Service if required. Due to popular request we have developed Benfield ATT Kit Homes to come complete with factory-fitted insulation (and even factory-fitted windows, if required). This, together with Benfield ATT Cassette Floors & Roofs, pre-hung door sets and bespoke staircases creates the ultimate 'DIY' challange!

Building Land & Tight Sites

Because building plots are increasingly difficult to find - even for the largest firms of national house builders and developers, we understand that when you have found your 'little piece of heaven' you will want this to be put to optimum use. Because of the fierce competition for land this often means that self builder's sites are on land that commercial builders find almost 'too difficult' to make money out of.

Customised Homes

In fact, in our experience, this usually opens up the way for a more interesting, 'custom home'. It may require a great deal more ingenuity than an estate house, and be more difficult to fit on a difficult to access, tight, enclosed, and uneven or steeply sloping home site, but the results can be outstanding.

Home Extensions & Conversions

If you are fed up with trying to find land, or think that the upheaval of moving house from your present neighbourhood community - with the possible loss of friends, relations, and activities - is not what you want, you may prefer to create more home space by enlarging and extending your home.


Although extending buildings can be one of the most difficult and challenging of all architectural home design and construction activities for any builder - let alone a new house builder - we have gone out of our way to make House and Home extensions a speciality.


Whether you want to build out at the side, the front, the back, or upwards; add a single storey addition or a further full height two or three floors, convert the loft - or even take off the roof and replace it with an new one to create up to 60% or more extra floor area - for more information click here.
