Builder Newport-on-Tay Scotland (DD6): There are such a lot of builders and building contractors in and around Newport-on-Tay that it can be difficult in choosing the right one for your particular needs. Should you use a house builder, a specialist in one form of construction skills or just a general builder for your project, and how will you know which to choose? To help you on your way, here are some tips and advice on getting the best Newport-on-Tay builder at the right price.

The building company you hire in Newport-on-Tay should be qualified, reliable and professional regardless of the extent of building project you are expecting them to accomplish. Start by asking for suggestions from friends and family. If they are pleased with a builder they've used then add them to your list as you will want to get more than one price quote for the job.

The next best way to uncover an experienced Newport-on-Tay builder is to ask experts within the construction industry. A list of reputable independent builders and building companies is held by the Federation of Master Builders (FMB), who endorse each member with an insurance backed warranty and guarantees for any construction work they do. This kind of peace of mind can be vital during a nerve-racking construction project, particularly when things can sometimes not go to plan.

Before requesting an estimate from a building company in Newport-on-Tay you will want to have a few details prepared in advance. If the project isn't made crystal clear, it becomes very difficult for any builder to supply you with an accurate quotation. You should be able to come up with some designs and plans for smaller building works, a garden wall for example, but if it is a bigger project you can ask your builder for assistance right from the planning and design stage right through to the management of the build to completion.

Prepare a written brief of your specifications together with photocopies of architect's drawings to hand over to all Newport-on-Tay builders who are producing a job quote. This way you are both clear about the anticipated result of the project. When you receive your quotation you will also be handed an approximated timescale for the building project.

If you are given a quotation that's a lot cheaper than the others, take some time to consider why this is and ask how they would be able to work for that amount without taking shortcuts on manpower or materials. As a potential customer you are perfectly within your rights to ask for a suitable explanation and see a break down of the costs given, and if the builder is unwilling or unable to supply this it may be in your best interests to look at a different company for the project.

As soon as you have all the estimates in, you shouldn't be in a rush to decide on a builder in Newport-on-Tay; sleep on it and the following day you can check over all the job quotes once again to cover all your bases. A quote might not exactly break down every aspect of the project, but there ought to be a checklist of phases in the build process, and you're looking for anything that hasn't been included in the initial estimation. If there is no entry on your quote for building waste and rubble removal, for instance, you should ask them if this will be included at no extra charge. This has to be removed and disposed of in a responsible and ethical way and should you find it isn't included in the estimate you need to find out why.

Another element to think about is the finish, style and design of any fixtures and fittings that you need. As particular fixtures will have to be sourced from various suppliers, your written brief should have as much detail with regard to the accessories you want, to enable the builder the information to provide you with an accurate quote. Should you feel at all unsure about any element of the quote in relation to your fittings and fixtures, this is the time to clarify the situation and be sure you won't get any unpleasant surprises during the build.

So, you've come to a decision, you have a price quote that you are happy with and you have gone ahead and appointed your chosen Newport-on-Tay builder. A contract should now be written up by the builder to set out details of the undertaking. This contract will be unique to your project and could list things like materials, responsibilities in clearing the site before work begins and on completion, specific fittings or fixtures, and what will be done if there any delays in or issues with the work. There should also be mention of the guarantee and warranty period of the work involved.

This contract will also explain when and how payments need to be made for the work in question. Your builder might want a modest deposit, although it is advised not to pay substantial amounts of money up front. Installments should only be paid when each part of a project has been finished, and then only when you are satisfied with the work.

A snag list of any small faults can be compiled during a final inspection of the completed project by the builder and the client. This snag list should highlight any problems that require rectification in keeping with the terms of the contract that was agreed by both parties before work started. As both parties carry out a final building inspection there needs to be a mutually acceptable agreement to the contents of the snag list and explanations on how to rectify any faults raised. Only when all work is completed to your satisfaction and any snags put right, should the final payment for the job be given to the builder.

It is regrettable that some building projects turn sour because of a lack of communication between the customer and builder. If you should find an issue, or something you want to modify throughout the project, speak to your builder without delay. The longer you leave an issue to fester, the harder it is for the builders to resolve and having a good rapport from the start is crucial.

For larger projects you have to understand that you will be in close contact with your builders on a daily basis. It is essential that you have trust and confidence in your Newport-on-Tay builders and whose understanding of the building trade and experience in your sort of project is totally dependable.
