“I have had the chance to have them as contractors and honestly couldn't be more happy of the job they got done. Their designs were right on point, exactly what I wanted and hoped for. Truly recommend their commendable team!”
Homeconcepts
Builders in Greater London
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 7, 2015
“I have undertaken many projects, and Homeconcepts is the one company that I can honestly say was a joy to work with. They have the winning combination of highly professional management and a superb building team. No need for ‘snag lists; there are none. I am hoping to do a complete renovation next year and would not dream of looking anywhere else. Alan Bowie, East Molesey.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 16, 2022
“It is with huge pleasure that we provide a high recommendation for Paragon. They added a master bedroom, en-suite, walk in cupboard, loft conversation and rear extension to our existing home. From the beginning we felt very comfortable with Paragon's approach. They really listened to our brief and provided excellent advice. The final design was outstanding. The management of the design, consent, contract and construction process was seamless and stress-free with clear instructions from the team at Paragon and very little effort required from us. Their professionalism shows in management, quality of work and customer service. Our experience has been an extremely very positive one. Working with a team that is accommodating and sensitive to our needs. What a concept!”

Builder FAQs
There are several reasons why you should hire a local builder in Greater London:
  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.

When looking for a Greater London 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 Greater London 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.
