Benchmark Membership


Pioneer our brand new membership offering.

A brand-new, exclusive membership offering, for highly-engaged self-builders, brought to you by the trusted team of employee-owners at The National Self Build & Renovation Centre.

Introducing Benchmark:

The demand for better quality housing shows no sign of waning and perhaps this isn’t surprising. No longer are they simply a place of sanctuary for our families. Modern day homes support our lifestyles, remote working/learning & social interactions.

At the NSBRC we believe people deserve better, more sustainable, homes. We help people like you achieve this by providing inspiration, information and impartial advice. This is why we have created 'Benchmark', a bespoke membership for highly-engaged self builders.

So - how does it work?

A Benchmark membership will provide you with:

  • A ‘personal shopping’ experience including an initial welcome call and dedicated NSBRC contact
  • Exclusive content including online workshops (with recordings and guaranteed responses) and a live event
  • Four x 90 minute consultations/guided tour with NSBRC Helpdesk Expert (worth £185 each)
  • 30% off our full range of Educational Courses
  • VIP Lounge at NSBRC Shows with pre-booked 1:2:1s & complimentary lunch & refreshments (worth £45 per couple)
  • Case Study opportunity on NSBRC Website
  • Free Financial health check with BuildStore (and £100 saving on mortgage fee)
  • Membership lanyard
  • Free hot drinks every occasion you visit the NSBRC

More detail is available in our digital brochure.


A truly exclusive offer:

We are limiting 2024 ‘pioneer’ memberships to just 195 projects. This is a small fraction of the number of projects we see through our doors each year, as we want you to be sure we will give you the time and attention you deserve.

Under our stewardship the NSBRC will always remain a free resource for our visitors. However, if you want to benefit from a genuinely enhanced experience, and are about to throw yourself deep into your project, then this is a fantastic opportunity to get ahead of the curve and maximise everything the NSBRC has to offer.

Membership is just £249 and this cost covers not one, but two years, as we know the typical life-span of a project can often realistically cover 18 to 24 months. This one price also covers up to two people (working on one project).

In return for your support and commitment, we have created a bespoke and exclusive offering, which we believe is outstanding value, and for anyone really committed to delivering a project, will be an investment that is re-paid many times over.

How to Join:

To sign up, simply email ‘benchmark@nsbrc.co.uk’ with your contact details and we will contact you to arrange your membership.


You might know that, since 2014, the NSBRC has been operated as an employee-owned business with the team you meet at the Centre owning over 80% of the company through our Employee Ownership Trust, Share Incentive Plan Trust and a small number of direct share-holders (all employees).

Our EO culture means we welcome (and actively encourage) feedback and - based on visitor suggestions - we are delighted to launch this brand-new membership offering designed to offer an even greater level of support and encouragement and help remove any barriers preventing you from achieving your dream.
