Builder Alcester Warwickshire (B49): Choosing the right builder for your Alcester construction project can be difficult with so many to choose from. From specialist building contractors, general builders, to house builders; how can you possibly know which one to choose? To help you, here are some tips and advice on finding the best building company at a decent price.

It does not matter if you are building your own house, having an extension built, renovating a basement or some other project you're thinking of, your Alcester building contractor must be reliable, professional and suitably qualified to do the job. Friends and family are a good place to look for suggestions for a top notch builder. If your friends or neighbours have previously had construction work done and they're satisfied with the result, then you couldn't get a better recommendation for any building contractor.

The next best way to locate a trusted Alcester building company is to ask experts within the construction industry. A list of reliable and professional independent builders and building contractors is held by the Federation of Master Builders, who endorse each registered member with guarantees and an insurance based warranty for any construction work they do. This peace of mind can be crucial during a stressful and nerve-racking construction project, especially when problems are encountered.

Before asking a building company in Alcester for an estimate you'll want to have a few details prepared in advance. A precise quotation can only be prepared if you set out in clear detail the scope and requirements of your building project. You ought to be able to show some designs and dimensions of smaller construction works, a garden wall for instance, however if it's a larger sort of project you can ask your builder for assistance right from the design and planning stage and all the way through the management of the build to completion.

You should make photocopies of any architect's drawings or written design specifications and hand them over to any Alcester builders who you need to get an estimate from. By following this process you'll both be clear about the expected outcome of the task. As well as a detailed quotation the builder will also specify a rough timescale for the completion of the work.

Certain Alcester builders will usually give a cheaper quote than others, but you must ask yourself how they can accomplish this without skimping or using substandard materials. If you don't receive a reasonable response it might be better to move on to a different building company and avoid any possible stressful situations resulting from potential escalating costs costs as the build proceeds.

Before deciding upon which Alcester building company to hire have one last look over their job quotes. A quotation might not exactly break down every aspect of the build, but there ought to be a list of phases in the construction process, and you are looking for anything that hasn't been included in the first estimate. If there is no entry on your quotation for waste removal, for example, you need to ask them if this is included in the price. This has to be disposed of in a responsible and ethical manner and if you discover that it's not included in the quotation then you should find out why.

If you've got a particular design or style you want for any fittings and fixtures for your building project in Alcester, these should also be allowed for in the quotation. This should be specified on your original written summary and quoted for accordingly by your builder. If the quotation does not specify your fittings you might finish up with a substandard option being used to cut costs.

So, you've come to a decision, you've got an estimate you're happy with and you have gone ahead and appointed your chosen builder. A contract should now be written up by the building company to specify details of the work. This will include things like specific fittings or fixtures, materials, clearance of the site before work commences (yours or their responsibility), and the making good of any snags during and at the end of the project. There should additionally be mention of the guarantee and warranty period of the work involved.

It might also determine the payment method for the building work. Your builder may request a deposit, but it is advised not to pay large amounts of cash up front. If you're paying for your project in phases, you should only be asked to pay upon each stage completion, and when you are happy with the work that has been done.

A final inspection will be made by the builder and the client and any items that need to be corrected, or small details overlooked through the building phase should be documented. A snag list is a means by which a builder can correct any small issues discovered at the end of the project, and should be in accordance with the the contract that was signed by both parties. A final inspection is not used to pick fault with the quality of the work, but is undertaken to deal with any concerns about the completed building project and the means by which to rectify them. The final payment should be made when site waste has been cleared (if part of the contract), all the work has been finished and any snags have been rectified.

A good level of communication between you and the builder is important to keep a construction project running nicely. At all times you need to be in a position to discuss any changes in or problems with your project with the builders.. The longer that you leave an issue to develop, the harder it is for the building company to rectify and having a good relationship from the outset is important.

You may be living in direct contact on a day to day basis with your building team for some time if the construction project is a large one. You should have complete trust and understanding in this situation with your Alcester builders and their personnel.
