MISTAKES TO AVOID WHEN
Building A New House 01
INCOMPLETE OR NON EXISTENT PLANS
Always get professional advice from a reputable builder, without them the chances of mistakes increase significantly as they know all the solutions and pitfalls. It is absolutely essential that the plans are accurate, up to date and approved before work commences.
02
POOR DESIGN
When you’re about to build your new home, it’s really important that you take the time to think about every little detail. It might be time consuming but it will most definitely be worth it as you will live there for years.
03
FORGETTING TO FUTURE PROOF
When you’re planning the design of your new home, it’s really important that you take your future lifestyle needs into consideration so that any changes are catered for and everything is seamless.
04
COMPROMISING ON LOCATION
Although compromising on your location for a better price point may seem like a good idea just remember location is often what sells the property.
05
CHOOSING THE CHEAPEST QUOTES
Sometimes builders will provide extremely low quotes to get the job – but you have to ask yourself how can they do this job for such a low price? Always go through the different quotes and if anything is significantly cheaper than the other quotes, ask to see their other work/get testimonials.
