Check their Builders Licenses

The first thing to ask any builder is if they have all their licenses up to date. Your builder must work with the city in regards to home and other land work. A license to work is very important for your builder to have. Another word for licenses is also permit. Without building permits, you find that the edition you added to your house is not legal. Or that the fence you wanted up cannot be there. Or that the lawn improvement you made could not have so many feet of concrete.  If the builder to have or acquire the correct permits you may find yourself in a difficult legal situation. Permits are only given to plans that pass all safety and zoning codes. This is why you are not allowed to build without them. In a way it is an extra check on the safety of the builder too.

Experience in the Field

Before hiring any builders you want to know and verify their experience. The way to do this is to first ask how long they have been working. Make sure that you follow that up with how long they have worked in the area. This is important because each area has different land needs. What works for one area may not work for another. You will want to have builders that have at least five or more years’ experience building. In addition, you will want at least three of those years working in the area. After you have gotten answers that satisfy these requirements. You will want to verify the info. You can do this by doing a quick google search. If you cannot find them, or the info you find does not match. Then you know not to hire the builder.
