If you get a quote which is substantially cheaper than the others, take some time to consider how this can be and ask yourself how they would be able to do the job for that price level without scrimping on materials or labour.

Once you've got all the estimates in, don't be in a rush to pick out a building contractor in Frinton-on-Sea; sleep on your decision and the next day you can go over all of the job quotes once more just to be on the safe side. A quotation might not itemise every part of the project, however there ought to be a list of phases in the build process, and you're searching for stuff that hasn't been included in the initial estimate. For instance, some builders may reduce the quote by not adding waste removal from the site at the end of the work. The rubble and debris from any building work has to be disposed of in a safe and regulated fashion, in line with local guidelines, and this can be a costly extra if it's not included in the final quote.

Another thing to look at is the style, finish and design of any fixtures and fittings that you need. As specific designs will have to be procured from different suppliers, your written brief needs to have as much detail regarding the fittings you've chosen, to enable the builder the information to provide you with an exact quote. If the quote does not specify your fittings you may find a cheaper option being used to cut costs.

Okay, you've found a price quote you're happy with and you are ready to appoint your builder. To safeguard the interests of both parties, the building contractor should present you with a contract to sign before any actual physical work starts. This should include stuff like what materials are to be used, clearance of the site before work starts, specifics of fixtures and fittings, as well as the making good of any snags during and at the end of the project. The contract should set out the warranty period that you get and what the guarantees from the builder cover with regards to their work or/and materials that are used in the project.

At the end of any project there should be a final inspection of the work between the builder and client to ensure that all work has been finished to a good standard and a snag list made up, if necessary. A common sense approach is necessary by both parties when dealing with this list, and it should observe the contract that was agreed at the start of the project. Each side needs to be ready to accept the other's viewpoint and be willing to offer a solution so that everyone can feel satisfied with the building works completion.
