The Building
Process
What you can expect when you build
a home with H3 Builders
Whether you’re building a new home or renovating an existing property, it’s good to know exactly what’s involved.
After all, you’re putting your trust in the hands of your builder – and your hard-earned money into the project! H3 Builders understands what’s at stake, so they aim to make the entire process as transparent and stress-free as possible.
Research
It all starts with asking yourself some important questions – why are you building/renovating and what do you want out of the project? Think about what you like (and don’t like!) – look for inspiration online and in the real world. Try to categorise your wish list into ‘must haves’ and ‘nice to haves’. It’s important to do your research when it comes to finding the right builder too – you need a builder that you like and trust, someone with similar values who will understand what’s important to you. If you can, try to speak to some previous clients of the builder that you’re considering.
Planning
Now you’ll need the input of an architect/draftsperson/designer – and your builder. By working with H3 Builders, you’ll have the experience and expertise of the business owner, Dean Harrison, on your side from day one. This can really pay dividends when it comes to knowing what’s possible within your budget. After all, a key part of the planning phase is costing out the project.
H3 Builders is happy to work with your chosen architect or designer, or they can refer you to one of their trusted contacts. As an NZCB Approved Builder, H3 Builders also has access to Certified Plans and can help provide you with an architecturally designed plan.
Once plans are finalised, then it’s into the council for consent (if required).
Building
Time to start building!
It’s an exciting process, but it can be stressful. H3 Builders aims to reduce stress by ensuring you’re kept informed throughout the build. Because projects are managed on-site, by the business owner, they’re able to ensure that the build is as efficient and timely as possible. And, if you decide to make a change, you can talk directly to Dean. The team is happy to work with you to achieve your perfect result – sometimes the best features come about this way!
