Builder Forres Scotland (IV36): There are so many construction companies and builders in and around Forres that it can be something of a challenge to choose the right one for your particular needs. From house builders, general builders, to specialist building contractors; how can you possibly know which one to use? To help you on your way, below are some tips and guidance on getting the best Forres builder at a decent price.

The building contractor you hire in Forres should be professional, qualified and reliable regardless of the extent of the construction project you're asking them to complete. The initial thing you can do is ask family and friends for recommendations. If your family or friends have had construction work completed and they're happy with the result, then you could hardly get a more resounding recommendation for any building contractor.

The next best way to locate a trusted Forres builder is to ask specialists within the construction industry. You can identify independent builders and building contractors who are covered by guarantees and insurances on the Federation of Master Builders (FMB) list of trusted builders. A recommended FMB builder should give you the self-confidence in the knowledge that your project will be succesfully done even when problems occur, or unexpected delays in building are taking place.

You will need to get a few things prepared before asking a professional builder in Forres for a quotation. They won't be able to provide a definitive price if it's not clear exactly what you need. You could obviously use a builder to oversee the design and planning of your project, but for modest building jobs it is better to have your specifications ready when you first make contact with a building company.

Prepare a written summary of all your requirements together with copies of architect's drawings to hand to each Forres builder who supplies a quote. That way you're describing your precise requirements right from the outset. Any quote you get will usually also come with an estimated timeline to complete the build.

If you receive a price quote that is substantially cheaper than the others, take some time to consider how this can be and ask how they can do the job for that price without cutting corners on materials or labour. As a prospective client you're perfectly within your rights to ask for a credible explanation and receive a break down of cost, and if the builder is unwilling or unable to supply this it could be better to be safe than sorry and look at another company for the project.

Before picking out which Forres building company to hire have a final look over their price quotes. Assess what's included in the price, and even more important what ISN'T included. Some builders might not itemise building waste and rubble removal as an example. This has to be disposed of in a responsible way and if you discover it isn't part of the quotation then you should find out why.

If you have a particular design or style you want for any fixtures and fittings for your construction project in Forres, these should also be allowed for in the quotation. This is an issue that ought to be transparent on your original written brief that is given to the builders to enable them to procure these accessories and make certain they're included in the quotation. If you've made specific demands you may need to confirm that these are reflected in the quotation.

So, you've made up your mind, you've got a quotation you're happy with and you have gone ahead and appointed your building contractor. Before any work begins the builder should write up a contract for the protection of both of you. This contract should be unique to your particular project and will list areas like what materials are to be used, clearing of the site before work begins, specifics of fixtures and fittings, and what will be done if there any delays in or problems with the project. There should additionally be reference to the warranty period and guarantee of the work involved.

It may also determine the method of payment for the work. Your builder may want a deposit, although it isn't advisable to pay significant cash payments up front. Payments should be made only when each stage of a project is completed, and then only when you are pleased with the work.

A final inspection will be made between the builder and the client and any items that need to be put right, or stuff overlooked during the building stage needs to be documented. This snagging list should highlight any issues that need rectification in accordance with the contract terms that was agreed by both sides before work started. A final inspection does not have the purpose of picking fault with the work, but is undertaken to take care of any concerns about the completed building project and how to fix them. The final payment can be made once site waste has been removed (if part of the contract), any snags have been made good and all work has been finished.

It is a sad fact that quite a few construction projects go bad because of a lack of communication between builder and client. If there is something you'd like to change, or you see a problem coming to light you need to have a word with the building company at once. It will become far more difficult to put a problem right the longer it is left, and you'll both benefit from good communication from the start.
