New Builds in Reigate
A new-build home is constructed from the ground up on a plot, typically following an architect's approved drawings, and involves groundworks, structure, building envelope, first and second fix trades, and full compliance with current Building Regulations including Part L energy performance requirements.
In Reigate, that covers Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley. Reigate sits at the foot of the North Downs, with a historic town centre and a number of well-established residential areas featuring substantial Victorian, Edwardian and interwar houses. Its position near the Surrey Hills National Landscape (formerly AONB) shapes planning policy for parts of the borough.

Property styles in Reigate
Reigate has a strong stock of larger detached and semi-detached Victorian and Edwardian houses, along with mock-Tudor interwar properties, many of which suit generously proportioned rear and wraparound extensions or double-storey additions.
Planning considerations
Reigate & Banstead Borough Council is the local planning authority. The historic town centre is a conservation area, and parts of the borough fall within the Surrey Hills National Landscape (National Landscape, formerly AONB), which brings additional design and landscape considerations for extensions and new structures.

FAQs
New Builds in Reigate: FAQs
Do you provide new builds across all of Reigate?
Yes, we cover the RH2 postcode area in full, including Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley.
Do I need a structural warranty for a new-build home?
Most mortgage lenders require a recognised new-build warranty (such as NHBC or an equivalent provider) for a period of typically ten years. We factor warranty provider inspections into the build programme.
Can you build from our architect's drawings?
Yes. We regularly build from independently prepared, planning-approved drawings, working with your architect and structural engineer through construction.
Does the Surrey Hills National Landscape designation affect extensions in Reigate?
For properties within the designated area, additional weight is given to landscape character and visual impact in planning decisions. We check whether your property falls within the boundary during feasibility.
