Builders Newton Abbot

Builder Newton Abbot Devon (TQ12): Picking out the right builder for your Newton Abbot based construction project can prove to be hard with so many available. How can you determine which general builder, specialist building contractor or house builder to employ? To assist you in finding a building contractor for your assignment below are some helpful guidance and tips to set you on your way.

It doesn't matter if you're having an extension built, renovation a basement, building your own home or any other project, your Newton Abbot builders must be professional, reliable and qualified to carry out the work. Firstly you could do is ask friends and family for recommendations. If your neighbours or friends have previously had building work completed and they are happy with how the work went, then you couldn't get a better advertisement for a building contractor.

If you can't find anyone who can recommend a building company in Newton Abbot then ask the professionals. A list of reputable independent builders and building contractors is held by the Federation of Master Builders, who back each member with guarantees and an insurance based warranty on any construction work they do. An approved FMB builder should give you the self-assurance in knowing that your project will be successfully completed even when things appear to be going awry, or unforeseen delays in construction occur.

It is prudent to have the details of your project ready before you ask any contractor in Newton Abbot for a job quote. If the project isn't made clear, it becomes extremely difficult for any builder to supply you with a definitive quote. If it's quite a big construction project you could ask a building company to supervise all stages, from management and design to full construction works, while modest building work should give you the scope to have your own designs and ideas ready and prepared to show a builder in order to obtain a precise quote.

If you have any architectural drawings, you need to make copies and hand them to any Newton Abbot builder providing a quote, as well as a detailed written summary. This way you're both clear about the expected result of the task. When you receive your quote you will also be handed an approximate timeline for the project.

If you are given a quote which is much cheaper than the rest, take some time to consider why this might be and ask how they can do the job for that price level without corner-cutting on materials or labour. As a possible client you're perfectly within your rights to ask for a credible explanation and see a break down of the estimated costs, and if the builder is unable or unwilling to supply this it may be in your best interests to consider another contractor for the job.

Once you have received all the estimates, don't be in a panic to decide on a building company in Newton Abbot; sleep on it and the following day go over all of the quotations once more to cover all your bases. Look at what's included, and more to the point, what isn't included in the cost. For instance, certain building contractors might reduce the quote by not itemising waste removal from the site at the end of the project. This must be disposed of in a responsible and ethical fashion and if you discover that it's not part of the quotation you should find out why.

Another aspect to consider is the finish, style and design of any fixtures and fittings that you require. Stuff like this should be specified on your original written brief and quoted for accordingly by the builder. If you have made specific demands you may need to verify these are reflected in the quote.

Okay, you have found a quotation that you are satisfied with and you're now ready to appoint your builder. To protect the interests of both parties, the builder ought to provide you with a contract to sign before the real work commences. This will very likely include points such as; specifics of fixtures and fittings, clearance of the site before work begins, what materials are to be used, and there should also be a resolution for any problems or snags. It should additionally discuss any agreed warranty period and what the guarantee covers with regards to materials and building work.

It could also determine the method of payment for the building work. It is possible you could be asked for a small deposit, but you should not pay out any significant sums of money before the work starts. Bigger building projects are typically paid for in stages, and you will only pay on the completion of each stage when you are happy that the stage has been accomplished successfully.

At the end of the project there needs to be a final inspection of the work between the builder and client to ensure that all construction work has been completed satisfactorily and a snag list of minor faults compiled, if needed. A snagging list is a way for a builder to rectify any small problems found at the termination of the project, and should be tackled in keeping with the the building contract that was signed by both sides. As both parties carry out a final building inspection there should be a mutually acceptable agreement to any snag list and a discussion should take place as to how any faults will be remedied. When the site has been cleared of tools and materials, all work is completed and the snagging list has been done, the final payment can be made.

If you establish a good line of communication between yourself and the builder, you're putting down a good foundation in the smooth and efficient running of your project. If you happen to find an issue, or something you'd like to modify throughout the project, chat with your builder immediately. It will become far more difficult to correct a problem the longer it's left, and you will both benefit from good lines of communication from the outset.

You might be living in direct contact on a daily basis and for some time with your building team if the project is a large one. It is vital that you've got confidence and trust in your Newton Abbot builders and whose knowledge of the building trade and familiarity with your kind of project is completely dependable. Any memberships, accreditations and qualifications held by the builder from professional organisations can help ease your mind.
