It is a widely held myth that construction contracts should be determined mainly by price, and it is our strong belief that you get what you pay for. Most people do not buy the cheapest clothes, nor wear the cheapest shoes, nor drive the cheapest car they can afford. So why pick your builder by the cheapest price?

If you are not in the construction industry, you would not know the lengths some builders go to save costs: whether it is by substituting cheaper overseas sourced fittings and fixtures, halving insulation, or deliberately underquoting your job to win your business, and then slowly raising up the price through variations through the contract (or the worse: going bankrupt halfway through your project and re-emerging in a new company shell!).

The building industry needs more practitioners who understand the value of intelligent cost value analysis, and you should ask your builder to work with you in a joint partnered arrangement to give you the best quality for the best cost. Not the cheapest cost.
