Tips for choosing a contractor
Choosing the right contractor is about scope, communication and reliability, not just the lowest quote.
A home extension affects your daily life and your largest asset. The contractor needs to be technically capable and clear in communication.
A cheap quote can become expensive if exclusions and assumptions are vague.
Compare scope, not just price
Ask what is included in foundation, steel, glazing, finishing, drawings and permit support.
Different scopes can make two quotes impossible to compare at first glance.
Check process and communication
A good contractor explains planning, decision moments and risks before work starts.
Clear communication is especially important when you live in the home during construction.
Look for accountability
One accountable team reduces finger-pointing between designer, engineer and builder.
Ask how defects, warranty and handover are handled.
Summary
The best quote is clear, complete and backed by a process you trust.
