Don’t miss your opportunity to get hold of this brand new publication from The Guild, written by Conciliation Services Manager, Bob Howe
Whether a professional builder or a homeowner about to embark on building work, this handy-sized book contains everything needed to ensure the work runs smoothly. Thorough, clearly explained advice and information will guide the reader through the whole process and answer any questions: from the initial visit to discuss requirements right through to commencement of work, dealing with disputes and claims, snagging issues and completion. Packed with pro tips, downloadable checklists of things to look out for and the legalities of Acts such as the Party Wall Act and the Housing Grants Construction and Regeneration Act all explained clearly and concisely, you won’t get weighed down with detail, but will be clear on your position, either as a builder/tradesman or as a client.
