You can reclaim the VAT incurred on expenditure including the following:

  • All Materials incorporated in the building
  • Delivery charges included on invoices for materials

  • Wooden floor systems
  • Light fittings

You cannot reclaim the VAT incurred on some expenditure including the following:

  • Architects and professional fees
  • Hire Charges
  • White goods
  • Carpets

You must ensure you are charged the correct rate of VAT during project as HMRC will only refund the rate that should be charged.

New build VAT refunds are paid direct to your bank account.
