Five Tips For You To Keep Track of Your Project

Here are five simple tips you can follow to get in full control of your building project and achieve the dream home you’re looking for:

1) Get a Detailed Schedule

The first thing you should do is get a detailed construction schedule from your builder. This schedule should include every single task that needs to be completed, and when each task is scheduled to be finished. Make sure you understand the schedule, and that you agree with it.

If there are any changes to the schedule, make sure you get them in writing. This way, you can avoid any misunderstandings later on.

2) Weekly Report on Progress

Your builder should provide you with a weekly report on the progress of your project. This report should include what tasks have been completed, what tasks are currently being worked on, and what future tasks are in the pipeline.

It's important to review this report carefully, and to discuss any concerns you have with your builder. If you feel like the project is running behind schedule, or if there are any other issues, be sure to bring them up. You must do regular site visits and stay involved as much as you can.

3) Latest Photos and Videos of the Construction Site

One of the best ways to keep track of your project's progress is to get access to the regular photos and videos from the construction site. A professional builder will have an online client portal that allows you to log into to view this information. This way, you can see how the project is progressing even if you can't be there in person. Be sure to ask your builder how often they will be providing you the project photos and videos.

4) Access to all project files and documents

Make sure you have access to all the necessary project files and documents, including the construction contract, floor plans, schedules, invoices, and any other important documents at one place.

This will help you stay on top of the project, and will give you a place to turn if you have any questions or concerns regarding any part of your project.

5) Open Communication with Your Builder

Finally, one of the most important things you can do to keep track of your project is to maintain open communication with your builder and have regular check-ins. Be sure to ask questions, express any concerns you have, and keep them updated on your expectations, so they can deliver you the best possible outcome.

If you have a good relationship with your builder, they will be more likely to always keep you in the loop on everything that's going on with your project and go the extra mile to ensure your complete satisfaction.

If you ever feel like your builder is not being communicative enough, or if you're not getting the information or updates you need, be sure to bring this up. You need to stay involved in the process, so you can feel confident that your project is in good hands.

Professional Builders Show You Behind The Scenes

Now you understand the importance of staying involved in your project and keeping track of every detail. But how can you be sure that your builder is actually delivering on their promises throughout the project.

The answer is simple: hire a professional builder.

So, how do professional builders work?

They are building professionals and specialists in their work and provide an extra level of quality and assurance to your project. A professional builder doesn't operate like other builders. They specialise in what they do and act in your best interest.

Professional builders will always take the time to understand what your vision and needs are before starting the project. They will also prepare a detailed schedule and construction process that you can follow.

Plus, they provide you with regular reports and updates, so you can always check in on the progress of your project. They have a system in place to keep you informed and updated at every stage of the project.
