Many of us dream of building our own home and want to live in a home that’s different from those on offer in the mainstream property market place. The Huff Puff House offers you the opportunity to realise that dream. With our help and our Huff Puff self-build kit you can build a beautiful, sustainable home at a truly affordable price.
Sustainable Self-Build
The Huff Puff House: a straw bale building kit
We manufacture, supply and build eco-friendly, energy efficient Huff Puff Houses to the self-build market. We can provide you with the level of help you need to achieve your self build project. From a simple kit with instructions, you can also ask for our help with advice, design, planning, building control, training and construction if you need it. We’re here to help achieve your self build dream and we can help you as much or as little as you would like.
"The Huff Puff House helps make self-building a real option for people who would like to invest their own time, rather than the outlay required of a turnkey build."

The self-build process
Before you decide to embark on your self-build project, it’s important to be well informed, and equipped with as much information as possible to make sure that your self-build goes smoothly and to plan and that it also comes to completion within your allocated budget.
