You’ve paid the builder. Your kitchen’s been ripped out. Now they’re not answering the phone.

You never want to find yourself in that position. You’re trusting someone with your money, your home and months of your family’s life.

Before you commit, check exactly what you’re agreeing to.

When you send us quotations you’ve received for comparison, we sometimes see a one-page document listing “sockets”, “flooring” and “painting and decorating”. No description of the work. No quantities. No clear explanation of what you’re paying for.

You’re expecting ten sockets. The builder has allowed for four. You think flooring includes the materials. They’ve only priced the labour.

Those gaps leave you open to extra costs and disagreements once work starts.

Before you accept, ask for the details:

🔌 Sockets: How many are you getting, where will they go, and does the price include supplying them and repairing the walls afterwards?

🪵 Flooring: Which rooms are included, what material are you getting, who supplies it, and is removal and floor preparation covered?

🎨 Decorating: Which rooms and surfaces will be painted, what preparation is included, and who supplies the paint?

If you’ve discussed something and agreed it verbally, get it written into your quotation. Make sure you understand the exclusions, allowances and how any additional costs will be approved.

Speak to recent clients, check the builder’s insurance and trade membership, and agree a staged payment schedule.

With Team 1, you get a detailed scope, agreed staged payments, weekly updates and a 12-month workmanship warranty. We’re also vetted and inspected by the Federation of Master Builders.

You should know what’s happening in your own home without having to chase for answers.

CASE STUDY: Rear Extension, Garage Conversion and Ground-Floor Renovation in Chiswick

Hi, Assaf here from Team 1 Construction.

I wanted to take you through one of our completed projects and explain what was involved from start to finish.

The client’s brief

The existing ground floor had a dated conservatory and a separate garage that was not being used to its full potential.

The client wanted to create a larger and brighter kitchen and dining area, improve the connection with the garden and make the entire ground floor work better for the family.

What we delivered

Working from the client’s architect’s drawings, we demolished the existing conservatory and constructed a new 30 sqm rear extension.

We also opened up and converted the existing 15 sqm garage. Together, these works provided approximately 45 sqm of new and converted living space.

The wider project included:

• Groundworks and drainage
• Structural alterations and steelwork
• Complete ground-floor renovation
• New kitchen installation
• Bespoke fitted joinery
• Front reception-room renovation
• Ground-floor WC and hallway renovation
• New rear patio and landscaping

The challenge

The main challenge was bringing the original house, rear extension and converted garage together so that they worked as one connected space.

We carefully coordinated the structural openings, floor levels, services and finishes throughout the ground floor. The new brickwork was also selected and installed to sit naturally alongside the original property.

The result

After six months of work, the property now has a bright and spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area, with large steel-framed doors and rooflights bringing natural light deep into the house.

The extension and garage conversion have not simply added more space. They have changed how the entire ground floor is used and created a much better connection between the house and garden.

We managed the construction from the initial demolition through to the final finishes and snagging, and I am very pleased with the completed result.
