As demand for homes in the South West continues to soar, with house prices increasing by over 10 per cent at the fastest rate since 2010 over the year to June1, the South West Homebuilding & Renovating Show will be making its long-anticipated return between 20-21 November 2021 at the Bath & West Showground, to provide inspiration and ideas for people's property projects and ambitions.

A recent study carried out by the Homebuilding & Renovating Show revealed that visitors to the show were most looking forward to being able to see, touch and feel products, hold face-to-face conversations with show experts, and watch live demonstrations. In total, more than 85 per cent of attendees researched their projects throughout the pandemic but 49 per cent refrained from making online purchases relating to their projects during this time.

With so many having held off making such purchases over the past 18 months, the South West Homebuilding & Renovating Show will be hosting a wide range of exhibitors to meet the demand for the new home trends that have evolved during the pandemic. People will finally be given the chance to seek inspiration and review the quality of products in person for their future home ventures after months of internet searches and online shopping.

The show will bring together 1000s of products from over 100 exhibitors, and free daily seminars and masterclasses that will demonstrate high-quality specialist advice and services from industries including: kitchens; bathrooms; doors and windows; extensions and conversions; eco and heating; architecture; design; financial services; planning permissions and much more.

The Masterclass Theatrewill offer visitors the chance to learn more about subjects such as creating a sustainable home, choosing the right structures for a project, finding and evaluating land, and more.

For specialist advice and tips on all aspects associated with self-build and renovation, 15-minute Ask the Expert consultations are available through interactive sessions to help assist visitors in achieving and realising their property ambitions.
