DO YOU HAVE YOUR OWN CUSTOM HOME DESIGNS?
Obtaining building quotes to build a custom home can be a daunting and time consuming task. At Super Choice, we take the stress and pain out of the process and ensure we look at contributing costs to avoid any disappointment or surprises.
Selecting a builder goes beyond price alone. A custom home needs a builder that is able to deliver what you want, along with a shared vision for expectations, quality, service and value. Our specialists can help in the council process to breakdown all requirements whilst offering full transparency for the process. Superchoice homes offers a free consultation, or if your time poor we can do an online quote and conference briefing.
Tips To Getting Accurate Building Quotes
There are a few things to consider when obtaining building quotes to ensure all builders do not miss anything to quote, whilst also ensuring capabilities meet expectations here are some tips below to help us get you the most accurate quote.
- Provide clear and complete plans, preferable complete working drawings.
- Provide an up to date soil report
- Provide survey / full engineering plans (foundations and structural)
- Provide a completed House Energy Rating Report
- Most importantly provide a detailed inclusions list, preferably with models and makes to ensure all builders are quoting for the same items.
What To Put In An Inclusions list or House Building Specification.
The inclusions list or specification as it is often called, can be as detailed as you need to ensure everything you want is included in your building quotes. In the same way as the plans tell your builders what to build, the specification tells your builder what fixtures and fittings are to be included. Internally there is a wide range of choice when it comes to fittings for your home. The more specific you are the more accurate your building quotes will be.
The simplest way to ensure that all your building quotes are based on the same inclusions is to itemize each item that you want your building quote to include or we can use our specification as a starting guide.
