Featured Reviews for Builders in Plymouth, Devon

Lignum Designs Limited
Builders in Plymouth, Devon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 May 2023
“Simon was really easy to work with. He asked all the right questions form the start in order to understand our requirements and needs for refurbishing our period house based around our living style and situation. He was quick to respond/adapt plans and gave us several excellent ideas, which are now being put into practice. He helped us through the planning and regulatory process as well. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to renovate an older property and make it work for modern day living.”
Workshop Collaborative
Builders in Plymouth, Devon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 October 2020
“We were fortunate enough to work with the Workshop Collaborative on the design of an extension to our family home last year. The process was so smooth and efficient, we felt very involved in the design stages and the team took on board our basic needs for the project spec as well as creating an interesting and contemporary design. I felt supported when working between the design and builders on site and the communication between WSC and the tradespeople was always clear and precise. We were so impressed with the level of detail and effort that went in to the design and the architectural drawings, which definitely made it easier for those on site. On a personal level they were always on the end of the phone and gave clear responses to any questions I had relating to areas of the build. I couldn’t recommend WSC enough and hope to be able to work with them on any future projects.”
Trotman & Taylor Architectural Consultants
Builders in Plymouth, Devon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 September 2020
“We have used Clayton on two occasions now; the first was for a loft conversion with bedrooms and an en-suite, and in the second occasion was for a kitchen extension. Both times Clayton has been excellent. He listened and interpreted our requirements very well, often adding things we had not considered and his work was very detailed. In fact our builders were able to get straight on with the work and commented how thorough and beneficial it was to have such good drawings to work to. We would definitely recommend using Clayton’s services.”

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