Magner Self-Build launches - Innovative new product to capture demand for one-off houses

Nov. 17, 2011 - PRLog -- Magner Self-Build launches as a direct response to strong demand in the only  
niche of the construction sector showing growth – one-off housing.

This exciting new product enables people to build their own home and yet still have the peace of mind that high quality construction is guaranteed. Cork-based Magner Homes will complete the home as far as the all important weather tight stage, at which point the owners can take over and choose their preferred trades people to finish the house.

Larry O’ Donoghue, Director at Magner Homes says the idea to offer such a flexible product was a simple solution to market demands. He says: “We created the Magner Self-Build package because our clients told us they wanted it. So often, we were being asked by potential clients if we could just complete the house shell and they would take it over from that point because they wanted to be really involved in the build. So we reacted to the market and created Magner Self-Build.”
In today’s recessionary times, people need to keep a tight grip on their costs and save money where they can. Magner Self-Build helps them do that and get their dream house at the same time. It takes away the risk and stress of the initial stages of the build and guarantees that the house will be a high quality construction, delivering market leading energy efficiency levels. Crucially, it also gives people the control of the purse strings, allowing them to choose their own plumber, carpenter, electrician etc.
Paul Daly, Site Manager with Magner Homes, says: “This product is great for the local economy. It delivers an innovative new product that uses energy efficient technologies and meets a real and growing market demand in a niche of the otherwise depressed construction sector. It shows how innovation can beat a recession.”
