Builders Gatley

Builder Gatley Greater Manchester (SK8): Picking the best builder for your Gatley based building project can prove to be quite hard with so many on offer. From specialist building contractors, general builders, to house builders; how do you know which one to pick? To assist you in finding the best Gatley building contractor for your task here are some helpful guidance and tips to set you on the right route.

It does not matter if you are renovating a basement, building your own house, getting an extension built or any other project you're thinking of, your Gatley building contractor must be professional, reliable and adequately qualified to complete the task. Family and friends are a good place to look for suggestions for a good builder. A builder who has excellent "by word of mouth" recommendations is one you should add to your shortlist of possible contractors to ask for a price quote.

If there is nobody that can provide you with a good endoresement or recommendation you'll need to search for a reliable Gatley building contractor through industry experts. You can locate independent builders and building contractors who are covered by insurances and guarantees on the Federation of Master Builders (FMB) list of trusted contractors. A recommended FMB building company will give you the self-assurance in knowing that your project will be succesfully done even if things appear to be going awry, or unforeseen delays in construction are taking place.

You'll have to prepare a few things before asking a professional builder in Gatley for a job quote. A precise quotation can only be put together if you set out in detail the scope and requirements of your construction project. You should be able to come up with some plans and designs of modest construction tasks, a garden wall for instance, however if it is a more substantial project you can ask your builder for assistance right from the design stage and all the way through project management and completion.

If you have any architectural drawings, you should make photocopies and give them to any Gatley builders providing a job quote, along with an in-depth written brief. This way you are outlining your precise needs right from the outset. When you receive your estimate you should also be handed a rough timeline for the building project.

Quotes can differ significantly, but if there is one that is much lower than the rest you should get the builder to explain why this is so and to make certain that they fully understand your needs. If you do not get an acceptable response it may be better to move on to an alternative builder and sidestep any possible stressful situations due to potential increases in costs as the build progresses.

As soon as you have received all the estimates, do not be in a hurry to choose a builder in Gatley; sleep on it and the following day go over all of the price quotes again to play it safe. Pay special attention to anything that's NOT included in the total price offered. If there is no entry on your quote for building rubbish and rubble removal, for example, you need to ask if this is going to be included for no additional fee. The rubble and debris from any construction work should be disposed of in a safe and ethical fashion, in keeping with local guidelines, and this can be an expensive extra if it is not listed in the quotation you've been presented with.

Another thing to look at is the style, design and finish of any fixtures and fittings that you require. Seeing that specific fixtures will have to be sourced from various retailers, your written summary needs to have as much detail regarding the fittings you have chosen, to enable the builder the information to provide you with an exact quote. If the estimate does not specify your requirements you may end up with a cheaper alternative to reduce costs.

Once you have picked out a builder and accepted their quotation there is one more piece of paperwork to deal with. Before any physical work begins your builder should prepare a contract to safeguard both of you. This contract will be unique to your project and could cover areas like what materials are to be used, clearance of the site before work starts, details of fittings and fixtures, and what to do if there any delays in or complications with the project. The contract will declare what warranty period you may have and exactly what the builder's guarantee covers in relation to their work or/and materials that are used for the project.

It might also determine the payment method for the building work. Your builder may want a deposit, however it isn't advisable to pay substantial cash payments in advance. Payments should be made only when each stage of a project has been finished, and then only if you are happy with the standard of the work.

A snag list of any small faults can be done during the final inspection of the finished project which will involve the builder and client. This snagging list should highlight any small issues that require fixing in accordance with the terms of the contract that was agreed by both sides before construction work began. As both sides complete a final inspection there must be a mutual agreement to the contents of the snagging list and explanations on how to correct any faults raised. The final payment for the job can be made once all the work has been finished, any snags have been rectified and site waste has been removed (if part of the contract).

It is unfortunate that a lot of building projects turn bad because of a lack of communication between builder and customer. You need to be prepared to discuss any problems or changes in your project with the building contractor, and you must do so the instant something arises. If you have a good line of communication with the building company you are less likely to wait around for the "right" time to speak to them, especially since the longer a problem is left, the harder it is to rectify.

You may be living in direct contact on a daily basis and for some time with your building team if the construction project is a large one. It's vital that you have confidence and trust in your Gatley builder and whose understanding of the construction industry and experience in your kind of project is entirely reliable. Any accreditations, memberships and qualifications held by the building company from trade organisations can help to ease your mind.

In the building trade there are plenty of professional associations that supply training in project management and building skills for all sections of the building personnel. An individual or building contractor can be a member of one of the thirty schemes that have been put in place by industry leaders to put the spotlight on their professionalism, reliability and skills.

The Federation of Master Builders - The FMB (Federation of Master Builders) is the standard membership for countless construction companies, not merely in Gatley, but up and down Britain. Not only does the FMB provide guarantees and insurances for the work of its membership, they also offer a useful dispute resolution service that provides impartial assistance to both customer and builder in case there are any fall-outs.

The Construction Skills Certification Scheme - The Construction Skills Certification Scheme is a Government endorsed card that all members of a building company's workforce, from senior executives down to trainees, must hold in order to be able to work in the building industry.
