Handy tips

Tips when hiring building contractors.

Embarking on construction of any kind is an expensive and complex venture. Use these tips to ensure you feel prepared to carefully find a builder.

Speak to family and friends to gather referrals for reputable home builders near you. The local council can also be another way to source recommendations.

Do a background check and your due diligence of prospective construction companies. Look at their website and gauge if it feels legitimate.

Ensure you go with a licensed and registered builder who holds the required credentials and qualifications. This is also applicable to their possession of council approved permits for any construction work.

Check their insurance information and make sure their coverage will not expire before your project is finished.

Have timelines and estimates in writing.

Be weary of automatically choosing the lowest price as this could indicate compromised quality.

Research these things to ensure you hire local, quality builders for your construction project. Until then, keep searching through our comprehensive online listings.
