Why Choose a Builder near me to Build my Extension?

If you are planning home improvements, it’s best to use a trusted, local builder near you. Whether you’re considering a loft conversion, an exterior extension or even a barn conversion, HaMuch can help you find the right specialist to make the right alterations to your property.

Looking for a local bricklaying service or a local plastering service? You can find the right tradesman at HaMuch.

Investing in a skilled builder means there will be less DIY maintenance for you to do on your extension as time goes by, and a better return on investment. By improving your house aesthetically and increasing the available space, you can increase its resale value should you come to sell later on down the road.

What do your local Builders Do?

A professional builder co-ordinates all activities around the construction and maintenance of a home. If you’re embarking on an extension or conversion, a professional builder will oversee the project from the planning stages to the final touches.

The builder first begins the job of a home extension by obtaining building permits for their client and surveying the land on which they’ll be working. An architect then designs the blueprints, and the builder will oversee the transformation from design into an actual structure, from the laying of the foundations to the roofing. A builder will also work with plumbers, painters, electricians and other tradesmen to make the finishing touches.

Below are some specific responsibilities of a builder:

• Co-ordination of construction services: Builders will have a broad range of skills and contacts within the construction trade, and will co-ordinate the services for a project as required.
• Organisation of tasks: A builder is responsible for the organisation of tasks for every contractor. They organise construction hours to ensure compliance with the times specified by the local authority; for some councils construction work should not be done in the early morning, while others may or may not permit evening or weekend building work.
• Supervision of contractors: A builder supervises the work done by an electrician, carpenter, painter, plumber or bricklayer to ensure it is completed according to plan. They also ensure safety standards are maintained throughout the project.
• Administrative duties: A builder takes on administrative duties such as getting a building permit from local authorities, calculating cost and quantities of building materials, and paying contractors.
