If you receive an estimate that is substantially cheaper than the rest, take some time to consider how this can be and ask yourself how they would be able to work for that price level without cutting corners on labour or materials. As a prospective customer you're quite within your rights to request a compelling explanation and see a break down of the estimated costs, and if the builder is unable to provide this it could be in your best interests to consider another company for the job.

Don't make a rash decision when selecting builders in Newhaven, or feel pressured into going for a particular one; a great rule is to wait for 24 hours or so and look over each of the price quotes once more. You should pay particular attention to anything that's NOT included in the total price. As an example, certain building companies may reduce the quote by not adding waste removal from the site when the job is finished. This has to be disposed of in a responsible and ethical manner and if you discover that it isn't included in the quote then you should ask why.

Another aspect to look at is the design, style and finish of any fixtures and fittings that you need. This is something that should be made clear on your written brief that is given to the builders to allow them to source these accessories and make certain that they're included in the estimate. If you have made specific demands you may need to confirm that these are replicated in your quote.

So, you have found a price quote you're satisfied with and you are in a position to appoint your builder. A contract should now be drafted by the building company to lay down the specifics of the undertaking. This will very likely include items such as; specific fixtures or fittings, clearance of the site before work starts (theirs or your responsibility), materials, and a resolution for any problems or snags. The contract will declare the warranty period that you get and precisely what the guarantees by the builder cover with regards to their work or/and materials that are used in the project.

If you have agreed upon a payment method, this will be mentioned in this contract, or a building contractor will specify when and how any payments are completed. If you are asked for a deposit you should be wary of paying large amounts of cash to a builder before any construction work has actually started. Larger construction projects are usually paid for in stages, and you will only pay on the completion of each stage when you are satisfied that the work has been accomplished correctly.

At the end of any project there will be a final inspection of the work between the builder and the client to make sure that all work has been completed to a good standard and a snagging list compiled, if needed. A snag list is a way for a builder to correct any small issues discovered at the termination of the project, and should be sorted out in keeping with the signed contract between both sides. Each side should be ready to accept the other's point of view and be willing to offer a solution in order that everyone can feel happy with the final outcome. Only when any snags have been made good and all work is completed to your satisfaction, should the final payment for the job be sent to the builder.
