Top 7 Tips to Choosing a Builder
TOP 7 TIPS FOR PICKING YOUR BUILDER
This guide is a summary of many years working as an architect and interior designer with a large roster of contractor teams with whom I have worked. Some of these have been fantastic, and some have been hard work! I really began learning these lessons from my very first job where the contractor was a disaster - I will tell you more about this later.
Hopefully this guide will provide value to anyone trying to avoid expensive mistakes. It should help you make the difference between the cow-boy and the craftsman, putting aside their individual charm and personalities.
This guide is a series of tips that draw from my own experience but they may not always apply to every situation. I hope a few of these will surprise you! Your architect or designer should help
you through the contractor selection process but in case you need help or want to manage expectations, I have also provided you with a template for a series of questions you can ask at contractor interviews and a checklist for what you need before even getting in touch with contractors.
