The five lessons I learnt about refurbishing my home. Before you spend a single £ you need to:-
1. Knowing exactly what you want to achieve - to the very last detail.
2. Decide how it will be managed - are you doing it, or do you need help?
3. How to identify good builders - architects , creating a list. There are many excellent tradesmen out there - your challenge is to find them.
4. Define your payment rules before you start. Be prepared for some builders to walk away, the good ones won't!!
Finally every second you invest in this phase will repay itself many many times over.
Get it right from the very start. Don't be impatient!!!!! Time deadlines should never be the bottom line. Doing it right the first time is what it’s all about, all the way through the project.
Home Owner Contracts are designed specifically for people looking for the benefits and protection of a contract when appointing consultants or contractors to carry out their building work. www.jctltd.co.uk/category/hom...
This is what I have written at the top of the Task sheets for each room:-
"Please NOTE these notes are for guidance ONLY. Any changes in specification MUST be discussed and agreed in advance of the work being carried out.
As a house holder with NO knowledge of the Planning + building industry and requirements, regulations etc, all comments to improve the specification in anyway are welcomed. Contractors looking to undertake the tasks, need to be fully compliant with all standards and regulations.
ALL information provided is provided on the basis of notes to assist the contractor. Responsibility for all information including dimensions, specifications, health and safety etc lies with the contractor. If in doubt ask."
