When you are looking for a good builder, getting a few quotes from different builders is a good place to start. It is important when doing this not to be too swayed by the price. Although budget is important, prices that are very low could sometimes mean that the workmanship will not be as good, and also that the materials may not be as good quality, so bear this in mind.

You can also have a look at previous work that builders have done – they will be happy to show you examples of their previous work, and this helps you to get a good idea of the type of work that they do.
