Chris Batesmith, Content Editor at Build It Magazine which organises the Build It Live Shows said:
“All our shows provide a one-stop shop for all things self build, renovation and home improvement. Each show is designed to provide inspiration, advice and information to make your property project a success. Our Land Zone is the perfect place to visit to find a building plot as there will be access to ‘Plotbrowser’, our free online plot finding service which lists 1000s of self build plots and redevelopment opportunities.
“At Build It magazine we have been providing expert guidance to self builders and renovators for over 30 years and our shows are another way we can help self builders and renovators create their own dream home.”
The South West exhibition will also feature sessions where Build It magazine readers take to the stage to share their own stories with tips and advice on how to avoid common pitfalls when taking on a self build project.
The popular Sustainable Building Products Pavilion will also be returning to the Exeter show with advice on how to create a truly sustainable, healthy home whether building a new home from scratch or renovating an older property.
The Heating Advice Clinic will offer guidance on the best heating systems available for your home right now together with all the latest information on government grants available for installing air and ground source heat pumps.
Financial experts will also be on hand to advise on how to finance your project and the weekend will be filled with free clinics and demonstrations including:
