Featured Reviews for Builders in Manchester

Dimension Architects
Builders in Manchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 October 2023
“Unbelievable architect! Who goes above and beyond what is expected. The best there is and I would recommend to everyone.”
EOHMA Architects
Builders in Manchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 April 2020
“I engaged Eohma to complete plans for a two storey side extension to my property and take it through planning. Curtis was very professional and personal through the process, taking time to understand my needs as well as proposing solutions where problems had arisen. He was open and honest about the process and as a result took the pressure off me. In addition the quality of the drawings allowed for builders to easily quote for the work.”
Design Solutions Architecture Ltd
Builders in Manchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 February 2020
“Having used the professional services of Design Solutions 8 years ago for a commercial project, converting a 1930's art deco building into residential flats on which Simon of Design Solutions, Poynton also acted as our Project Manager, there was only one company we were then going to use for our house extension and the re-modelling of our home. Simon is professional, approachable, enthusiastic and full of great ideas and his vast number of contacts in the building industry were invaluable to us when it came to both the design and fit out of the extension. Simon recommended 3 builders to us and we chose one we had worked with before on another commercial project on which Simon had also done the design work. The builder he recommended was perfect for the job and backed up by Simon's recommendation, we had complete confidence in him, so important when it is your home and having confidence in the design and build team is absolutely key. As with every project Design Solutions have worked on for my family, we were absolutely delighted with the finished build. Our home not only functions better for us but looks so much more attractive inside and out too. I would highly recommend Design Solutions for being friendly, very approachable along with their professionalism, great advice and expertise.”

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