Advantages of Hiring an All Trades Builder

As a homeowner you will need to call a tradesman at some point.  It could be for a small job like fixing a leaking tap or it could be for a full house renovation.  No matter the purpose, you will want a reliable, skilled tradesman or tradespeople who can finish your job to the required standard for a reasonable cost.

Each time you need a new trade you will have to go through the process of finding someone that is available and fits your criteria.  This is likely to involve asking your friends for recommendations and searching the internet for a local company.  Some people will start contacting some companies at this stage.  Others will check their social media accounts to see what people say and what their work looks like and they will check reviews on Google, Facebook and maybe Trustpilot.  All this takes time that you probably don't have!

Why You Need The Number of an All Trades Construction Company

Jack of all trades, master of none may come to mind but a good all trades company will have a team of specialists who are masters of their trade with the appropriate qualifications and endorsements to prove it. 

  • Do your research once
    Search for a good local building company that offers all trades and check their reviews and credentials.  Getting a recommendation from a friend is really helpful. Once you have done this, get them to do a small job first. If you are happy with their communication, their workmanship, their price and you like their tradespeople, then keep their number for future work. 

  • Saves time in an emergency
    Whether all your fuses have blown or your bathroom is leaking you have a number to call that you can trust.  Hopefully, as a repeat customer, they will find time for you and respond quickly or offer a recommendation of a trusted competitor. 

  • Multiple trades available
    If, for example, you need a new bathroom fitted, then you may need a plumber, an electrician and a decorator.  Instead of doing research for each trade and then having to co-ordinate them yourself, you can call your builder and they will provide each trade as needed.

  • Ability to take on large projects
    Having used a company for small projects, home maintenance and repairs, you can trust them to take on a large project such as a loft conversion or home extension. A multi-trade construction company is likely to have the number of staff required to take on a large project and complete it efficiently.


The number of an excellent local builder is one you want to keep and is a relationship you want to treasure for many years.
