It always best to obtain multiple quotes from builders but do remember that the cheapest quote isn’t necessarily the best. Don’t let your decision be swayed by the possibility of saving a few pounds – employing a builder because he is cheap could end up costing you plenty in the long run. When considering quotes from builders ensure they are a fixed price. In other words, no additional costs can, or will, be added on and that the quote covers everything. A good building company will lay out in detail what your quotation covers and this may include drawing up plans, submitting them to the local authority as well as building the loft conversion.
