Checking a builder before you hire
Ask whether the builder belongs to a recognised trade body such as the Federation of Master Builders (FMB) or the National Federation of Builders (NFB), and check that they hold public liability insurance. For structural changes, extensions and most new work in Milton Keynes, Building Regulations approval is required, which is handled through Milton Keynes City Council or an approved inspector, and larger projects may also need planning permission. Ask to see examples of completed local work and request a written, itemised quote rather than a verbal estimate.
Contracts, guarantees and payment
A clear written contract should set out the scope of work, materials, a payment schedule and expected timescales. Avoid paying large sums up front, and be cautious of requests for full cash payment before work begins. For new homes and major structural work, ask whether a structural warranty is provided, and confirm that any gas or electrical elements will be signed off by a Gas Safe registered engineer or a competent-person-scheme electrician, since builders often subcontract these trades.
Do I need planning permission or Building Regulations approval for an extension?
Many single-storey extensions fall under permitted development, but this depends on size, position and whether your property has restrictions such as being in a conservation area. Building Regulations approval is separate and applies to most structural work regardless of planning. A reputable builder can advise, but you should confirm with Milton Keynes City Council before work starts.
How do I get an accurate quote?
Provide the same detailed brief to two or three builders so quotes are comparable, and ask for a written breakdown covering labour, materials and any provisional sums. A quote is a fixed price for the described work, while an estimate can change, so be clear which you are being given.
