North Cornwall sites can carry higher logistics costs than South Devon equivalents because of the supply chain and travel times for specialist trades. Coastal sites add weather-related programme risk. Some areas have strong local trades; others rely on contractors travelling in.

None of these are reasons not to build. They are reasons to estimate the build properly, with site-specific assumptions rather than generic per-m² rates.

Across both areas we run feasibility take-offs that reflect the specifics of the site, not regional averages.
