“I met Lisa 5 years ago when we moved in our new place , as we were looking for someone to help with our project , I met Lisa , she was very professional, kind and I liked her straight away and trusted her Lisa did a great job and the outcome was perfect just what we had in mind 2 years passed , we decided to have a new kitchen so I got in touch with Lisa again , she came round and organised everything, and we discussed how we wanted it and it all worked together and we agreed on her input very much , from choosing everything necessary together This year we decided to have a small porch built with a loo and wash basin I didn’t even have to think twice about who I wanted to hire for the job I called Lisa after not having spoken to her for almost 3 years , she was happy to hear from us and very surprised Lisa came round the next day we discussed what we had in mind and asked for her in put opinions Lisa organised everything from the planning permissions , builders , choosing everything the lot on which she worked very hard Lisa keep us informed by day to day what was happening so there were no issues or confusion Our porch finished and it looks amazing thanks to Lisa Apparently people slow down when they drive pass our place and a couple even knocked on the door during their walk to tell us how beautiful it looks and whether we were pleased with it We replied absolutely delighted We definitely have Lisa again if anything else in the future should come up in the near future and I have recommended her to my friends also Thank you Lisa for your hard work and your support and patience We both take this opportunity and wish you all the best Dee & Clive”
Ralph Kent
Builders in Christchurch, Dorset
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 October 2023
“We employed Ralph to design a rear extension and internal alterations to our 1980’s house, to make it fit for our family’s needs. Ralph was a pleasure to deal with from the start, considering all of our requirements. The initial design Ralph produced fit our requirements very well with only some small alterations needed. Ralph has a huge depth of knowledge on construction techniques and consideration of material choices, which have resulted in a stunning modern extension which we are so proud of. The drawings and specifications that Ralph produced were very clear and really helped with contracting the builder and left no room for ambiguity. Ralph provided excellent support throughout the build which was very useful for us due to my job taking me away from home for long periods of time. I would have no hesitation in using Ralph again in the future and highly recommend him.”
Greenway Poole Ltd
Builders in Christchurch, Dorset
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 July 2023
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Greenway who completely transformed my house, in every room, through to the garden. The builders demonstrated an incredible attention to detail. They carefully executed every aspect of the construction process, from the foundation to the finishing touches. I was pleasantly surprised by how well the builders managed the project timeline. They consistently met the agreed-upon deadlines and kept me updated on the progress throughout. Their excellent communication skills ensured that I was always informed and involved in the decision-making process. They turned my house into a dream home.”

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