Build It incorporating SelfBuild & Design have added a new show to their existing Build It Live exhibitions and tickets are now on sale for a new show taking place at Westpoint Arena in Exeter on 9 and 10 September 2023.

All the Build It Live shows are designed to help find everyday solutions to perfectly manage a home building or renovation project and the Exeter show will be no exception as it will also offer a weekend of inspiration with top tips and expert self build property advice all under one roof.  

Chris Batesmith, Editor of Build It Magazine which organises the Build It Live Shows said:

“At Build It magazine we have been providing expert guidance to self builders and renovators for the past 30 years.  All our Build It Live shows bring together leading suppliers who will be showcasing all the latest innovations.  Our visitors can also book free one to one advice sessions with Build It’s independent experts and listen to free seminars in the Build It Live theatre.  The seminars and workshops cover a wide range of topics including how to find land and secure planning permission, the different routes available for managing a self build project and how to renovate a home with character, carry out a successful barn conversation or update an old house for modern eco living.

“Visitors can also listen to the popular 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.”

Introduced last year the hugely popular Sustainable Building Products Pavilion will also be at the Exeter show.

Whether building from scratch or renovating an old house, if you want a truly sustainable, healthy home, then every aspect of your project needs to be considered in detail – from low-energy design strategies through to the products and finishes that go into both the structural fabric and the internal fit-out.  A visit to the Sustainable Building Products Pavilion, in association with The Alliance for Sustainable Building Products (ASBP), is ideal to receive advice and source some of the UK’s best eco products on the market.

With heating being a current hot topic, the Heating Advice Clinic has plenty of 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.
