Whether you are having a whole new extension or a wall built, sooner or later you are going to need to get a professional builder like Mogford Prescott in to do it for you. But when it comes to finding and choosing the right builder for your building project how do you go about it? Here are some tips to help you get started…
Look Online – The internet is a good place to begin your search. Look for builders that are local to your area when you search, for example by searching building companies Bristol. You can then look at their websites and get an idea of the type of work that they do, so you can narrow down your search. You can also find reviews online on Google which can also be helpful when choosing a builder.
Ask Around – This is another really good way to get a builder who can help you. If you know people who have had building work done, you can ask them if they were happy with their builder and get a recommendation. You could also ask on your local Facebook group as people are likely to know a good builder in the local area who they can recommend. When you are working with an architect, they may also be able to recommend somebody to you who they have worked with before and know to be a good building company who has experience of the type of work that you need to be done.
Get Some Quotes – Once you have a few builders narrowed down in your search it is time to give them a call and tell them what you are looking for. Ask them to quote for the job. By getting a few quotes you will have an idea of what the job is likely to cost so you can then decide from there. It is worth bearing in mind that just because a quote comes in a lot cheaper than the others this does not necessarily mean that is the one to go for. Look into reviews and the material quality to help you make your decision.
