Building Contractors in Harrogate, Ilkley and the Surrounding Areas
The Importance of Hiring Professional Contractors for Your Project

Are you considering a major renovation project in the near future? If your home in Harrogate or Ilkley is beginning to feel like it’s closing in around you, have you had plans drawn up to expand your living accommodation by means of a loft or garage conversion? Maybe you’re looking at the various styles of house extensions or other building services available. Whatever the reason, there’s one major factor you must take very seriously – who will you hire to do the work for you?

Topspec Joinery & Construction Ltd has been in operation since 2013, and our building contractors share a wealth of experience between them. What makes us stand out as commercial and domestic builders is our professionalism and vast knowledge of the area in which we work. From extensions to renovations and everything in between, we understand our services in depth. As members of the Federation of Master Builders, and carriers of the government-approved Trustmark, we must adhere to rigid regulations regarding our work, offering even further guarantees to our many Harrogate and Ilkley clients.

For Better Building Services | Choosing a Local Contractor

Don’t select the first company you contact, or even the second. Do your research, read online reviews and testimonials, and look for recommendations. Ask questions during your initial consultation, request access to previous works or proof of past projects in your area, and don’t be afraid to say no if you’re not happy with the answers you’re getting.

Most importantly, ask for credentials and assure yourself that they, and their subcontractors, are approved by the relevant bodies pertaining to their work. Examples include the following:

  • Federation of Master Builders (FMB)

  • Contractor Health & Safety Scheme (CHAS)

  • Construction Industry Training Board (CITB)

  • Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS)

  • Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme (FENSA)

  • Gas Safe Register

  • Government-Endorsed Quality Scheme (Trustmark)

  • National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC)

Communication

Professional building contractors will be client-focused and open to constant communication between themselves and their clients. At Topspec Joinery & Construction, we’re more than happy to answer any questions you may have and address concerns which may arise over the course of a project.

Deadlines and Constraints

All construction companies and local contractors must be competent enough to work to deadlines and remain within their allocated budget. Going against what has been agreed is not only frustrating for the client, it paints any commercial and domestic builder in a poor light. This could result in the loss of future contracts due to disappointing reviews or recommendations.

Insurance

If you’re thinking of hiring building contractors to work on your home in Harrogate, Ilkley or the surrounding areas, make sure they are fully covered with the relevant insurances, such as public liability cover and employers’ liability insurance (where relevant). FMB members can also provide additional warranties for a small administrative fee.

Are you looking to transform your Harrogate or Ilkley home with a conversion or extension? If so, call our building contractors today on 01274 200 600 for advice.
