How to choose a builder in Cheshire

You appoint a builder once the scope is defined. If you invite builders before the drawings and specification are settled, every quote prices a different job and you cannot compare them.

  1. Give every builder the same drawings, specification and programme, then compare line by line.
  2. Check the company at Companies House, and ask how long the team has worked together.
  3. Visit a current site, not just a finished photo.
  4. Ask for public liability insurance and, where relevant, a warranty or guarantee.
  5. Agree a payment schedule tied to stages completed, never a large payment up front.

What builders in Cheshire typically work on

  • Single and two-storey extensions
  • Loft conversions and garage conversions
  • Kitchen and bathroom refits
  • Structural openings and knock-throughs
  • Whole-house refurbishments

Common questions

How many builders should I ask to quote?
Three is enough, provided all three price the same written scope. More quotes on a vague brief produce a wider spread, not better information.
Why do quotes for the same job differ so much?
Usually because they include different work. Compare the inclusions, exclusions and provisional sums before you compare the totals.
