Featured Reviews for Builders in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire

Design Solutions Architecture Ltd
Builders in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 February 2020
“The service we received was exceptional. Simon was professional, knowledgeable, and listened to exactly what we wanted to do. He ensured every aspect of our project was dealt with, from start to finish, smoothly and efficiently. He took all the stress out of every step of the process. Once we were ready to proceed he had recommendations and ideas of where and who we could contact, to help us get the building work underway. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We would highly recommend Design Solutions and would certainly use them again if we required any further work.”
Elliott Construction Services
Builders in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 January 2021
“Elliott Construction were 5 stars from start to finish with our kitchen / living area extension. They were the only ones that quoted for the work that really seemed to take a genuine interest in the project we were trying to create and the only ones that got back to us when they said they would. Just on their initial service alone I could tell they were going to be the best. They managed our project through from start to finish, were honest and upfront about everything so there were no surprises, and actually finished ahead of when they estimated they would. I have no hesitation in recommending Elliotts to anyone - 5 stars.”

“Phi Kirk is a local planner and has done some nice buildings in our area. His plans are very detailed and look excellent quality. He came round to look at a possible development project we have. We are still investigating options before we decide to proceed with a planning application, but Phil was very professional and would be a great help.”

  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.

These days, more and more people are deciding to build their own dream home from scratch. You have your plot of land, plans have been drawn up by an architect and the next step is to hire an experienced home builder to turn your dreams into a reality.

Why hire a Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire home builder to create your dream home?


Often, when buying a property, there are things that are not quite to your taste that you would change, or get rid of. Even if you have the money and skilled workers, it is difficult to create something that is exactly as you’d like given that you are building on something that already exists. It could be that the layout of your property is just not how you would have chosen it to be had you been starting from scratch. For some people, having the perfect home is very important and the only way to achieve this is to build from the ground up with the help of a Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire home builder. This sometimes also even makes more financial sense as it would cost less to do this than to rearrange an entire, pre-existing home. This may seem like a daunting task, and admittedly, it’s not for the faint-hearted. But with extensive research, trusted builders, detailed budgeting and good judgement you might soon be sitting in the house of your dreams, at a snip of the cost.


How do you look for the right home builder?

Your architect’s plans will serve as clear instructions to your builder and, if the former has done their job well, you should also avoid any nasty surprises with the local council. Finding the right builder need not be a long or difficult process.
