Featured Reviews for Find Local Builders in East Sussex

GVT
Find Local Builders in East Sussex
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 November 2023
“One of the biggest issue when having to rely on or work with contractors is their ability, or lack thereof, to communicate. Working with GVT has been a real joy because they communicate very well and they work to an agreed standard and timeline. They are a honest and efficient bunch. I happily recommend their services!”
Will Loch Construction
Find Local Builders in East Sussex
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 August 2020
“Will came recommended. He organised our building work (from measuring up, giving advice/suggesting alternative options, ordering materials, to fitting the aluminium fascias and spray-painting the window frames) and saw the job through from start to finish in the most professional way. Will and his colleague Sam are reliable, unobtrusive and left the site clean and tidy at the end of every day. Will communicates well. He successfully liaises with third parties (for example, scaffolders, rubbish clearance) which allows the job to flow smoothly. Will’s workmanship is excellent. He is meticulous and has an eye for detail which results in an excellent finish. I would happily use Will again and would thoroughly recommend him.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 June 2016
“This building firm is really down to earth. Their projects have been amazing and they not only provide service but they disperse really useful advise such as when we showed them our draft drawings, they suggested improvements which was great as now we have a set of drawings which are amazing especially suggesting interior design features that woud have been harder to implement later on and probably added to the cost, They are also great at purchasing and will get the best deals for you. very easy to talk to and I am looking forward to working with them when our house is being built. From Dinta and Niraj”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 October 2018
“Amazing! Nico has so many great design ideas that we hadn’t thought of. He kept us up to date of what was happening with the work all the time. They cleaned up after themselves every day and made sure that we were happy with what was happening. We are so pleased with the extention which was a beautiful kitchen/breakfast room, and the new family bathroom. I can not recommend them enough.”

They left no mess and checked we were happy with the work all the way through. I cant recommend them highly enough - an absolute pleasure to deal with”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 February 2020
“Outstanding from start to finish. The guys at House overcame any issues with ease, were completely collaborative, highly skilled and blew my impression of the construction/renovation industry out of the after. I can’t recommend them enough.”
Inscope Management Services Ltd
Find Local Builders in East Sussex
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars16 March 2015
“Inscope Management carried out the refurbishment/building work for a recent interior design project for a large apartment in Chelsea. This included a new bathrooms and kitchen (their speciality). Their work was of a high standard and their professionalism, pleasant & considerate behaviour worked well, in this potentially difficult and dense site with many occupied apartments around. They worked within designated times, and cleared and cleaned the communal access areas each day. Very pleased with their performance.”
Rawlins Builders

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 February 2018
“Nick and his excellent team at R Rawlins delivered our medium-sized building project on time and within budget. They handled with aplomb all of the inevitable little surprises that old houses can throw at you. Good communication between Nick and the architects and also with the various subcontractors. Would recommend without reservation.”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in East Sussex:
  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.
You can find a local builder in East Sussex with Houzz in two ways:

  1. Answer a few questions about your project to get matched with a local professional for free. Enter your postcode above to get started.

After choosing either option, you can reach out to the builders you want to discuss your project with. You can request and compare quotes before hiring the right builder for you.
When looking for an East Sussex building company to take on your project, you will want to know that they will be able to handle the job in good time and sticking to your agreed budget. A professional contractor will have worked on projects like yours previously and they will know exactly what to do.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in East Sussex 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, recommendations and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects. All of which you can find on Houzz.
