Builders Brixham

Builder Brixham Devon (TQ5): There are such a lot of construction companies and builders in and around Brixham that it can be something of a challenge to decide on the right one for your specific needs. Should you use a general builder, a house builder or a specialist building contractor for your assignment, and how will you know which to choose? To help you out, below are some tips and advice on getting the best building company at the right price.

It makes no difference if you're renovating a cellar, having an extension built, building your own house or some other project, your Brixham building contractor must be reliable, professional and qualified to carry out the task. First of all you can do is ask neighbours and friends for recommendations. If they're pleased with a builder they've used then put them on your shortlist as you'll want to get more than one quote for the work.

If there is no-one that can supply you with a decent endoresement or recommendation you will need to search for a trusted Brixham building contractor via the experts in the industry. The FMB (Federation of Master Builders) keeps a list of signed-up members who come guaranteed and with an FMB insurance supported warranty as standard. An approved FMB building company should give you the self-confidence in knowing that your project will be completed even if things look like they're going wrong, or unforeseen delays in construction occur.

You will want to get a few things prepared before asking a professional builder in Brixham for a job quote. They will not be able to produce a definitive price if it's not clear exactly what you need. If it's a large project you can ask your building company to manage all stages, from design and planning to the actual construction, whilst modest building tasks should give you the scope to come up with your own designs and ideas to show a contractor so as to get a precise estimate.

If you have any architectural drawings, you should make photocopies and hand them to any Brixham builder supplying an estimate, together with an in-depth written brief. Through this process you'll both be clear on the expected outcome of your project. Any quotation you get should also come together with an estimated timeline to complete the build.

If you are given a quotation that's a lot cheaper than the others, take a moment to contemplate how this can be and ask yourself how they would be able to work for that amount without skimping on materials or manpower. If you do not get a reasonable response then it may be best to give the work to an alternative builder and avoid any possible stressful situations because of potential increasing costs as the build proceeds.

Don't make any rash decisions when selecting builders in Brixham, or feel obligated into picking a particular one; a good suggestion is to wait for 24 hours and read through all of the estimates again. Consider what's included in the price, and even more important what ISN'T included. Some builders might not itemise rubble and building waste removal for example. This must be disposed of in an ethical way and if you find it is not part of the estimate you need to find out why.

Another aspect to think about is the finish, design and style of any fixtures and fittings that you require. Things like this should be stipulated on your written summary and quoted for accordingly by your builder. Should you feel at all uncertain about any aspect of the price quote with regard to your accessories, this is the time to raise questions and ensure that you will not have any unpleasant surprises once the building work begins.

So, you've found a quotation that you're satisfied with and you are now ready to hire your builder. A contract should now be presented to you by the builder to lay down the details of the work. This contract will be distinct to your building project and will cover things like clearing of the site before work starts (theirs or your responsibility), materials, specifics of fittings and fixtures, and what will happen if there any problems or delays in the project. There should also be reference to the guarantee and warranty period of the work involved.

It could also set out the schedule of payment for the work. It is possible you might be asked for a small deposit, however you shouldn't pay out any substantial amounts of money before the work begins. Payments should be made only when each stage of a project is completed, and only if you are satisfied with the quality of the work.

A snagging list of any small faults can be made during the final inspection of the finished project which will involve the client and the builder. This snagging list should shine a spotlight on any minor issues that need rectification in line with the contract terms that was signed by both parties before construction work began. A final inspection does not have the aim of picking fault with the work, but is done to deal with any concerns over the outcome of the building project and the means by which to correct them. When the snag list has been accomplished, all work is finished and the site has been cleared of tools and materials, the final payment can be made.

It is unfortunate that many construction projects go wrong due to a lack of communication between builder and client. If there is something you want to alter, or you see a problem developing you need to have a word with the building contractor as soon as possible. If you have a good line of communication with the builders you're less likely to wait around for the "right" time to speak with them, particularly since the longer an issue is left to fester, the harder it is to rectify.

It is entirely possible that you'll be living and in close collaboration with your building company for a period of time and on a daily basis. Having confidence and trust in you Brixham builder's skills, qualifications and experience can mean that this extra stress is a little bit easier to deal with. A great help in accomplishing this is looking at their memberships, qualifications and accreditations of trade organisations.
