Want to avoid a horror build or renovation?
This podcast season is called “The Stages of Home Construction”. We’re diving into the process of home construction for both new builds and renovations, so you can feel informed as your project gets built.
In this season, we’re looking at the what, when, who and how of each stage and we’ll be giving you loads of helpful, cost saving, and stress saving, ideas and information along the way.
Have you wondered what’s going to happen during the construction phase of your renovation or new home?
The actual step-by-step process of construction? What the stages are in how it gets built? And when you’ll have to make payments, what they’re for, and how to be sure the work is complete and done correctly?
And have you heard horror stories about builders going into liquidation, and homeowners having already paid 80% of their building contract, with only 50% of the home being complete? Or builders not coming back to finish the home because they’ve had their last bill paid and are not interested in returning to deal with the incomplete work?
This construction phase can be a huge challenge, full of stress and expensive problems for the newbie renovator or home builder.
So, in this season of the podcast, builder, Duayne Pearce, and I (architect, Amelia Lee), are taking you through The Stages of Home Construction – so you can avoid the horror stories many experience in their projects.
