Busiest homebuild show
April 2017

The National Homebuilding & Renovating Show at the NEC, Birmingham last month reported its busiest event for ten years, with a four per cent increase in serious self-builders and renovators and over 80 per cent of the attendees working on a live project over the next 12 months.

The event, sponsored by Everest, attracted 37,111 visitors with average project values of £125,000 for materials alone. Internal data shows that a third of those attending are self-builders and two thirds are renovating a property. 

Nick Noble, deputy managing director of Centaur Home Interest, said: “The exceptional quality of the visitors demonstrates the UK’s continued commitment to self-building and renovating. We’re thrilled the show was so busy and that the visitors were highly engaged and relevant, which has translated into an excellent rebooking rate by exhibitors for the 2018 event already. The self-build market has become an integral part of the government’s housing policy and this will, without doubt, add to continued growth in this sector in the years ahead.”
