Choosing the right builder or tradesperson can make or break your renovation. Start by gathering reliable references from friends and family. If that’s not enough, get at least three quotes from local companies. This helps you understand market rates and assess professionalism.
When evaluating tradespeople, consider:
-
Accreditation and credentials
-
Past references and completed projects
-
Quality of materials and workmanship
-
Clear, itemized contracts with guarantees on timeframes and costs
Remember, the cheapest quote isn’t always the best choice. Aim for a balance of quality, reliability, and trustworthiness to ensure your renovation runs smoothly.
