Builders Rochdale

Builder Rochdale Greater Manchester (OL11): There are such a lot of builders and building contractors in and around Rochdale that it can be challenging in picking the best one for your specific requirements. From specialist building contractors, general builders, to house builders; how do you know which to use? To help you on your way, here are some advice and tips on getting the best building company at the best price.

Whatever the size of your building venture; a home extension, a basement restoration, a full house build or even a garden wall, you want a professional, qualified and reliable Rochdale builder to do the job. Friends and family are a good place to look for recommendations for a quality builder. If your neighbours or friends have had construction work completed and they are pleased with the result, then that's the best advertisement for any builder.

If there is nobody who can offer you a decent recommendation or endorsement you'll have to search for a trustworthy Rochdale building company by asking experts in the industry. The Federation of Master Builders (FMB) has a list of signed-up members that all come guaranteed and with an FMB insurance backed warranty as standard. An approved FMB building contractor should give you the self-confidence in knowing that your project will be succesfully done even when things look like they're going wrong, or unforeseen delays in construction are taking place.

Before requesting an estimate from a building company in Rochdale you'll want to have some details prepared beforehand. A precise quotation can only be put together if you explain in clear detail the scope and requirements of your construction project. If it's a large undertaking you can ask your building contractor to manage all stages, from planning and design to the actual construction works, while modest building tasks should give you the scope to have your own ideas and designs ready and prepared to give to a contractor in order to receive a precise quotation.

You need to make photocopies of any architect's drawings or written design requirements and give them to the Rochdale builders who you ask for a job quote. This way you're setting out your exact needs from the outset. As well as an itemised quotation the builder will also lay down an approximate timeline to complete the work.

Certain Rochdale builders will naturally give a cheaper quotation than the others, however you need to ask how they are able to achieve this without cutting corners or using substandard components. If you don't get a reasonable response it may be safer to move on to an alternative building company and sidestep potential issues and stress due to possible increases in costs as the work proceeds.

Do not make a rash decision when choosing a building contractor in Rochdale, or feel forced into going for one in particular; a great suggestion is to hold back for a day or so and check over all of the job quotes once again. Pay special attention to what ISN'T included in the total price. For example, some building contractors may cut costs by not adding waste removal from the site at the end of the work. This must be removed and disposed of in a controlled fashion and if you find it is not part of the quote you need to find out why.

Another thing to look at is the finish, design and style of any fittings and fixtures that you need. Stuff like this must be stipulated on your original written brief and accordingly quoted for by the builder. If the estimate doesn't specify your exact fittings you could wind up with a cheaper option to reduce costs.

As soon as you've settled on a suitable Rochdale builder and accepted their price quote there is one further piece of paperwork to get through. A contract should be written up by the building firm to set out the specifics of the work. This contract will be unique to your building project and will deal with things like clearing of the site before work begins, what materials are to be used, details of fittings and fixtures, and what will occur if there any problems or delays in the work. The contract will declare what warranty period you may have and precisely what the builder's guarantee covers in relation to their work and/or materials used in the project.

If you have agreed upon a payment method, this will also be mentioned in the contract, or a builder will indicate how and when any payments will be made. Your builder may ask for a modest deposit, although it is not advisable to pay substantial cash payments up front. If you are paying for your project in stages, you should only be asked to pay upon each stage completion, and when you're happy with the standard of the work that has been accomplished.

A snag list of any minor faults can be gathered together during a final inspection of the finished project which will involve the client and builder. A common sense approach is needed by both parties when managing this list, and it should adhere to the contract that was agreed and signed at the start of the project. As both parties carry out a final inspection there must be a mutual agreement to the contents of the snagging list and explanations on how to rectify any faults discussed. When the snagging list has been done, the site has been cleared of tools and materials and all work is finished, the final payment for the job can be made.

It is unfortunate that some construction projects go wrong because of lack of communication between the builder and customer. If you discover an issue, or something you want to alter throughout the project, speak to your builder without delay. If you have good communication with your building company you are less inclined to wait for the "right" time to speak to them, especially as the longer a problem is left unresolved, the more complicated it is to put right.

You could be living in close contact on a day to day basis with your building team for some time if the construction project is a large one. Having trust and confidence in the builder's qualifications, skills and experience can mean that this extra stress is a little bit easier to deal with. An immense help in accomplishing this can be gained by evaluating their accreditations, memberships and qualifications of trade organisations.

Within the building trade there are many professional organisations that provide training in project management and building skills for all sections of the building personnel. There are likewise over 30 trade associations with membership schemes highlighting the professionalism and expertise of the individual and for building companies. Associations that are held in high regard within the construction industry are:

The Construction Industry Council - With approximately 500,000 building professionals and over 25,000 construction consultants amongst its membership, the Construction Industry Council (CIC) is the largest building industry organisation. These represent the management and technical side of the construction industry and it's likely that a site manager or other similar executive will be the holder of a CIC membership.

The Construction Skills Certification Scheme - The CSCS (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) is a Government recognised card which all members of the building workforce, from apprentices to senior executives, must hold in order to work in the building industry. The CSCS card shows a worker's qualifications, (Diploma, Postgraduate Degree, Degree and NVQ) in the construction industry as well as their accreditation from the CITB Health, Safety and Environment exam.

There are many variously coloured cards in the CSCS scheme, with each one pinpointing a different ability or qualification level of the holder. You will be able to locate more information and see the different cards and roles on the CSCS website.

The Federation of Master Builders - The FMB (Federation of Master Builders) is the accepted membership for many construction companies, not only in Rochdale, but right across the United Kingdom. Not only does the FMB provide guarantees and insurances for the work of its membership, they also offer a dispute resolution process that provides unbiased assistance to both parties in case there are any serious fall-outs.
