I could probably talk about how to select the ‘right Builder’ for a project for hours on end, but ultimately the most important factor is TRUST. Nothing is worse than choosing a Builder you didn’t trust from the very beginning.

There are so many telltale signs to look out for when it comes to authenticity and ethics. DON’T choose a Builder that easily lowers their quote. This is a sign that they probably haven’t done an accurate costing of the project and aren’t certain of their true profit margins.

Never make your final decision based on cost as variations along the way may dramatically change the actual cost for the project. Working closely with a trusted Builder ensures that there are no unsubstantiated variations that can easily cause a budget blowout.

More importantly, choose a Builder that stays true to their word and is able to do what they promised.
