If you have a home construction, remodelling, or upgrade project coming up, you will want to make sure you make the most of the home builders in Gravesend.
Here are some tips that will ensure you have a safe and successful experience:
Get an itemized quote – When contacting your short-listed contractors ask for an itemized quote and be warry of low prices that seem too good to be true because there usually is a reason they are so cheap!
Read the contract before signing – Never sign off on a contract or any paperwork regarding your home or the work that is to be done without reading it all, and make sure the contractor signs off on it as well.
Never pay full cost upfront – It is common for a contractor to ask for some money upfront to buy supplies and get started, but never give the full payment; always hold a last payment till everything is done!
Always keep control – Make sure your contractor keeps in touch with you and that you have the final say on things. If a situation arises, make sure you are contacted before any changes are made to the plans.
Cover your ass – You hope it never happens, but you need to protect yourself in case someone gets hurt on your property. Make sure your home insurance is current and that the contractor also has insurance!
