1. How Much Does A Full House Refurbishment Cost UK?: Don’t Choose The Cheapest Builder, It Could Cost You More!
Choosing the cheapest builder can be a costly mistake! Find someone with a good reputation and that can show you examples of previous work. If someone is the very cheapest option in the area, there may be a reason for that!
Picking the wrong builder can cost you a lot of money. There may be delays, incomplete work or low quality work that needs to be redone. This doesn’t mean you have to choose the most expensive option, though, the right balance will be somewhere in the middle. Take your time and find the right person for the job.
2. How Much Does A Full House Refurbishment Cost UK?: Know The Specifics!
If you just ask the builder to install a kitchen, for example, you may end up with something way outside your price range. Instead, research the exact kitchen you want and ask if they can install it. The same is true for the boiler, and every other potentially expensive job!
You need to be well researched, and know what you want. You need to know the finish and standard you are looking for in any particular job. You also need to be able to communicate that in precise terms. This can be the difference between being profitable and unprofitable.
3. How Much Does A Full House Refurbishment Cost UK?: Skip Hire Savings!
Instead of hiring a skip for a few days, pile the rubbish into one room. Then hire the skip for a day and load everything into it. Not only does this save money on skip rental, it also stops the neighbours from using it while you are not looking!
Make sure to plan the job carefully to maximise efficiency and reduce costs. All these small savings add up, and can bring the cost of a full house refurbishment down significantly!
