Whether you're embarking on a domestic renovation, extension or modernisation project to add value to your home, or doing some building work to a new property, it's absolutely key to find builders you can trust. Quality builders are integral to the success of your domestic build project. But it's not only their skill-set you should pay attention to. Here's K Design and Build's list of qualities to look for in a great builder: 

- References

Good builders will come with references, whether that's formal written ones on their website or word-of-mouth recommendations from local people. Ask around and you'll soon find out which builders are respected and which are best avoided.

- Trustworthiness

You need to be able to trust your builders, after all they may be alone in your property whilst you're at work, and you may even trust them with your front door key. Use references, and your gut feelings, to choose a truly trustworthy local builder.

- Time-keeping

If your building project is going to run to time, you need builders who take timekeeping seriously. Expect any good builders to turn up on time, and for their sub-contractors to do the same.
