Are you seeking a Builder UK for your house-extension? For that wall you want to knock through or en-suite you’ve always wanted? But worried about being taken advantage of? Or getting shoddy work done by a cowboy builder?

Not surprising. Like most people, you are probably looking for a quality job by a quality builder at a reasonable price. But how can you ensure that this will be the case? But how do you know that this is what you’ll get?

The media certainly doesn’t help – nightmare scenarios abound: Essential beams found missing from ceilings (after it’s collapsed), balconies giving way during family reunion photo-sessions, and cracker-box exteriors falling apart in sudden gusts of wind.

To avoid these nightmares becoming your reality, you need to do some research .

First, you need to ask your friends and family for recommendations. From this point you can verify the builders’ qualifications yourself . As well as the normal vocational qualifications (or alternatively, an apprenticeship with a reputable construction company), you must look out for their registration with the National Federation of Builders (NFB). This is the construction industry’s leading trade association. And it is the key to finding a good builder – the one must-have thing mentioned in the title of this article! A builder has credibility when registered with the NFB – it tells you that they take their job seriously and that they’ve undergone a range of checks, validating their reputation.

A further positive thing about being NFB registered, is that builders have access to a ‘Buildsure’. This is a scheme that provides four years of cover on construction projects up to £100,000. You should find this comforting – it means that in the unlikely event of a bodge-job, everything will be covered and the work will be completed to a satisfactory level at no extra cost to you.

NFB registered builders have access to subsidised training courses – leading to better skilled and disciplined builders . This is also beneficial to you as they are more likely to regularly update their skills by taking these courses . If they weren’t a member of the NFB they would no doubt find them to be prohibitively expensive.

There are so many nightmare stories floating about – isn’t it good to know that when it comes to hiring a builder, that there is a ‘gold-standard’ out there? . As well as checking on a few preliminary points (qualifications, previous work and quotes) you just have to ensure that your builder is NFB registered. Simple, isn’t it?

So put that dream of an extension into action. Make it a reality by hiring a NFB registered builder today . You no longer have to worry about hiring a cowboy – the NFB have no less than top builders on their books.

You’re making a huge investment with building work, so you must make an informed decision . Why pick someone out randomly from the phone book? You’ll be happy with the work that NFB registered Builders Essex can do for you.
