LA Kehres Building
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 February 2016
“Exceptional care to every detail of the job from start to finish, with a great work ethic. Our experience with LA Kehres Builders was 2nd to none. Larry and Brad helped us with our dream home. We couldn't be happier.”
King Construction Company LLC
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 January 2014
“King built our beautiful new barn, perfectly executing the gorgeous design by Gardner/Fox Associates. The project required careful demolition of our old barn, preserving the existing tack room, and building a new 5 stall barn on the existing foundation. The crew was skilled, pleasant, and fast. The staging and management of materials was impressive. They used a Pettibone lift in ingenious ways. The whole project wa completed in 81 days and we could not be happier. Super high quality people and product.”
Choice Home Remodeling Inc.
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 November 2012
“I upgraded my powder room and had a great experience, They are helpful, courteous and very professional. From the receptionist to the installers, the project went well. Three years ago, they completely re-designed my kitchen and I'm still thrilled with it. I can recommend them with no reservations.”
Install America
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 July 2017
“We had the best installers put up our new siding. From ripping down old siding to installing the new they did it in one day. We are very happy and look forward to working with Install America on our future home projects. I would give 10 stars if I could.”
The Golden Hands
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 August 2016
“Team was thorough and cares about quality of work. They insulated all windows and added a microwave above stove. (Plus other smaller jobs) Definitely will hire again in future (kitchen and bathroom remodels!)”
Renovations by Garman LLC
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 January 2013
“They were highly professional and finished on the date they told us they would finish, in spite of horrible weather. We did a major renovation which touched nearly every room of the house along with an addition. They paid attention to detail, replacing a counter top when they observed the overhang was an inch short. And, they follow up their renovation work for a year (and sometimes beyond) if there are problems discovered later. In all, a class act.”
Uhrig's Professional Painting & Paperhanging
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars12 July 2013
“Seemed to be very professional and explained everything about what they would do. Had neighbors that used them and were pleased. I just felt it was a lot of money for the project that I was going to have done.”
Chevrock Services
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 February 2015
“Awesome service! I've contracted with Chevrock for several projects, big and small. Chevrock completed a total overhaul on my kitchen, they did everything from helping design my new kitchen, to installing it, and making sure I was receiving the best prices. Chevrock has also helped with other jobs I've had such as plumbing and electrical work. They always do a great job and would highly recommend them for ANY job! Better than anyone else out there!”
Eppinette Construction LLC
Builders in Reading, PA
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars6 February 2013
“Korey and team did a great job on the mother-in-law suite that they added onto our house as well as the detached garage! He was stellar through the township negotiations to actually allow us to go forward and always came back with a quick idea of when plans had to change due to unforeseen events! Highly recommend this team for your next home project!”

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