What to Check Before You Hire
Ask for two or three recent references and contact those customers yourself, get written quotes from at least three builders for the same work, and check the builder has public liability insurance. Agree a written contract covering the start and finish dates, materials and payment schedule, pay in stages rather than up front, and never agree to a deposit of more than 25%.
Building regulations approval is separate from planning permission and a project might need both, so agree who will arrange building control sign off. If the work is on the boundary or a shared wall, the party wall rules mean you must tell your neighbour first. Our guide to finding a good local builder has a full checklist.

What is the best way to find a good builder in Bexhill-on-Sea?
Start with builders who have a high Google rating from a large number of reviews, then ask two or three of them for references from recent jobs and a written quote for the same work. Choose the one who explains the job clearly, puts the price and timings in writing and does not ask for a large payment up front.
How can I tell if a builder is good?
Look for a strong rating built on plenty of reviews, then speak to two or three recent customers yourself and, if you can, see a finished job. Check any trade body membership with that body, confirm the builder has public liability insurance, and look for a clear written quote with a breakdown of the work and materials.

How do I avoid a cowboy builder?
Be wary of a builder who will not give references, only gives a mobile number, quotes far lower than everyone else or wants to be paid in cash. Get written quotes from at least three builders, contact recent customers yourself, check any trade body membership with that body and never pay for the whole job up front.
What questions should I ask a builder before hiring them?
Ask whether the price is a fixed quote or an estimate, what is included and what counts as extra, when they can start and how long the job will take, how many days and hours a day are covered if they charge a day rate, what insurance they hold, who will arrange any building control approval, and how and when you will pay. Ask for the answers in writing.
