Featured Reviews for Builders in Chester, Cheshire

True Blue Architecture
Builders in Chester, Cheshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 January 2021
“I enlisted the help of Sam & True Blue to help me with my first full scale renovation. The project i undertook was a neglected 3 storey 1890s property in Manchester which required a lot of work from full basement renovation, bathroom extension and living/dining room knock through. I can confidently say this project would not have been a success without Sams expert advice, guidance and architectural planning support! Sam was always available to help with any questions or queries I had and provided all the plans, designs and information i needed in a timely and professional way. My builder even said that the plans and designs were the best he has ever seen! Highly recommend Sam & True Blue.”
Elliott Construction Services
Builders in Chester, Cheshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 December 2024
“NOT YOUR AVERAGE BUILDERS!! Elliott construction undertook a major project for us and we are delighted with the results. they are a very professional team. Pre-work We looked at 5 different building companies and Elliotts were the only ones who came with a fully costed project plan and timeline from the first meeting. Before the building work started we purchased a caravan to live in onsite whilst the work was ongoing, the team helped us get this set up and installed a dedicated water and power supply to the van. During the build As with any project, things change as you progress, we made a few design changes along the way and again, the team at Elliotts worked with us and advised on how best to achieve the desired outcomes. One of the dreaded things with any project is that the builders wont turn up, in all honesty we lost around 2 days and this was only due to bad weather and on one occasion completely unforeseen circumstances which we were accepting of....but if anything we gained more days as some of the team worked over bank holidays (after checking we were ok with that). The site was left in great order every night which helped reduce the stress of the project too. The finished build is amazing and a family home that we absolutely love.”
Group/d Architects
Builders in Chester, Cheshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 May 2021
“From the moment I approached Group D Architects, I felt an immediate sense of confidence that they were going to deliver a fantastic project for my new home. From the initial consultation, and providing me with lots of amazing ideas for the improvements to my home, right through to dealing with my local planning authority and liaising with the builders to built completion - they were absolutely brilliant. They took care of everything - all I had to do was choose which designs I liked!”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Chester:
  1. Local builders will be familiar with your local authorities building regulations, being able to advise on any relevant permits you need before work can begin.
  2. Builders near you will be aware of the climate of your area, and can recommend materials and construction methods suitable for your area.
  3. Building firms nearby will provide quicker responses and quotes compared to contractors outside of your local area, as they are nearby, they will often drop in to talk to you about your project and view the property.

For home builders, you will usually receive a quote for a building project instead of daily rates or hourly fees. The cost depends on various factors such as the type of job, builders experience and length of the project.

Expect to pay less for a small maintenance job such as brickwork repair or an extension of an existing wall than a new build project such as a kitchen or bathroom renovation and home extensions. After you’ve found a local builder for your project, speaking with them in detail about your project will help them give you an accurate estimate for the work required.
If you hire a home builder for a lengthy project, such as an extension, your builder may charge a daily rate. You can expect to pay around £350 per day for this. If your builder charges this way, ask for an estimation of how long this will take so you know roughly how much the total cost will be.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in Chester that can handle the full scope of works, either by themselves or through sub-contracting. It is often a good idea to play devils advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way. If you can, you could try to see previous projects and talk to previous clients, or if not, read reviews, and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects. All of which you can find on Houzz.
