The next best way to locate a respected Liskeard building contractor is to ask experts within the construction industry. You can identify independent builders and building contractors who are covered by insurances and guarantees on the FMB (Federation of Master Builders) list of approved companies. If anything happens to go wrong on a building project, this insurance and peace of mind from the Federation of Master Builders can prove vital.

You'll need to prepare a few things before asking a builder in Liskeard for an estimate. They won't be able to produce an accurate price if it's not clear precisely what you need. You could of course use your builder to oversee the planning and management of the project, however for smaller building jobs it is wise to have your requirements prepared when you first make contact with a building company.

If you have architect's drawings, you should make photocopies and pass them to any Liskeard builders supplying a quotation, in addition to a detailed written summary. By having such paperwork ready it sets out a defined plan which a good building contractor can use as a template for the project. Along with a detailed quotation your builder will also be able to determine an approximate timeframe to complete the building works.

If you receive a quotation that is significantly cheaper than the rest, take some time to consider why this might be and ask yourself how they would be able to work for that price level without cutting corners on materials or labour. If they cannot give a suitable answer or break down the costs to explain the quote, then it may be wise to consider a different builder, even if they are a little bit more expensive.

Before settling on which Liskeard building contractor to hire have a final read through of their price quotes. Assess what's included, and more importantly, what ISN'T included in the price. Some builders might not itemise building waste and rubble removal as an example. This has to be disposed of in a responsible and ethical manner and if you find it is not part of the quotation then you need to ask why.

If you have a specific style or design you would like for any fixtures and fittings for your building project in Liskeard, these should be allowed for in the estimate. This is an issue that must be made clear on your original written summary that is given to the builders to allow them to source these accessories and make sure that they're included in the estimate. Should you feel unsure about any aspect of the estimate with regard to your fittings and fixtures, now is the time to raise questions and ensure that you will not have any unpleasant surprises during the build.

Okay, so you have found a price quote that you're happy with and you're in a position to appoint your builder. A contract should be presented to you by the building firm to specify the specifics of the undertaking. This should include stuff like the materials to be used and where to store them on site, clearance of the site before work commences (yours or their responsibility), specific fittings or fixtures, and the doing any "snagging" during and at the end of the project. The contract should set out what warranty period you may have and what the builder's guarantee covers with regards to their work and/or materials that are used in the project.

If you have agreed on a schedule and method of payment, this should also be stipulated in this contract, or the builder will indicate how and when any payments are completed. It is entirely possible that you could be asked for a modest deposit, but do not pay any substantial amounts of money prior to work starting. Payments should only be made when each part of a project is completed, and only when you are pleased with the standard of the work.

A snag list of any small faults can be made during the final inspection of the finished project which will involve the client and the builder. A snagging list is a way for a builder to fix any small problems discovered at the end of the project, and should be in line with the signed building contract between both parties. Each party needs to be accepting of the other's viewpoint and be willing to put forward a solution so that everyone can feel happy with the final result. Only when any snags have been rectified and all work is finished to your satisfaction, should the final payment for the job be sent to the builder.

A good level of communication between the builder and you is important if you are to keep a building project running nicely. If you should find an issue, or something you wish to change during the project, chat with your builder without delay. If you have a good line of communication with the building company you're less likely to wait around for the "right" time to speak with them, particularly since the longer an issue is left unresolved, the harder it is to correct.

For bigger construction projects you must realise that you will be working closely with your builder on a daily basis.
