Why hire a home builder

Planning a new home build is no simple feat. Not only do you have to consider which skilled professionals you need for the job (e.g., architects, painters, masons), but you also have to pick out all the materials, such as exterior siding and cabinetry. Doing it all on your own can be overwhelming, which is why we recommend hiring one of our home builders. They’ll take care of every detail for you, from start to finish, and ensure that everything meets your needs, budget, and desired aesthetic.

Your Personal Assistant

A dedicated Renovation Advisor is assigned to your project. Your Advisor will be there to schedule appointments, help you understand quotes, provide you with a Verification Report for each contractor, and support you until your renovation is complete.

What does a home builder do?

Every major renovation or construction project requires the help of several tradespeople and industry professionals. All of these workers are led by one person: a general contractor. For a new residential construction, you’ll need a general contractor that specializes in home building – they’re licensed to build homes from the ground up! They’ll coordinate all the subcontractors, from architects to painters, to ensure that your project is completed on time and on budget.

If you decide to do it yourself, you’ll essentially be taking on the recruitment and coordination responsibilities of a home builder. Not only will you have to check each professional’s background and licence, but you’ll also have to purchase insurance and apply for permits on your own. And if anything goes wrong, it’s on you to fix it. Remember that coordinating a new home build is a full time job – it’s best left in the hands of a professional!

    What to ask a home builder

    Before the work begins, it’s important to meet with potential home builders. It’ll give you a chance to chat about your project and get a feel for them as a person. If you find that you get along better with one contractor versus another, trust that gut feeling – it’s a good sign! That said, we still suggest asking them at least some of the following questions to better understand what kind of work you’ll be getting into.

    • Do you provide turnkey renovation solutions?
    • How long will the project take?
    • How many subcontractors will be involved in the process?
    • Who will be supervising the work getting done?
    • Will I need to prepare the construction site ahead of time or will your team be doing that?
    • Is debris disposal included in your quote?
    • Is it possible to see some of your past work or get your references?
    • What is the payment schedule?
    • Is landscaping included in the project?
