When you are working on your home building project, it is so important that you choose a good, reliable builder to work with you to fulfill your dream. If you end up making a poor choice, your build will probably not go quite a well as you had planned, and all sorts of other issues could get in the way of a satisfactory job.

One way to locate and source a good quality builder is to ask friends and family for any recommendations they might have.  Word of mouth is one of the strongest ways to get a good builder, as you cannot really go wrong with a great recommendation.  Most builders will expect their customers to say a few things about the jobs they have completed for them, and offer references to show new clients how good they can be.

A second way to find a good builder is to put out an ad on social media that you are seeking a builder. This can attract applications from local tradesmen and women who will want to offer their services. Again, it is a good idea to check with past clients what the quality of the work is like before you hand over any cash!
