HOME IMPROVEMENTS DON’T GET CAUGHT
Carrying out any work on a property needs to be carefully considered. Whether replacing a hot water system or building an extension onto the home, you must follow a simple checklist.
- Get three quotes.
- Check the tradesperson’s license, registration, and insurance details.
- Get the works in writing; no job is too small to specify the work needed.
- If it is major works to the property, make sure you check with your home and contents insurer that they will cover the works should anything go wrong. You may be surprised by the insurer’s fine print regarding renovation works.
And lastly, be cautious of tradespeople who offer cheap deals on jobs around your home.
