4 reasons why you need a residential construction general contractor
1: Building a brand new home
It’s no surprise that if you are planning on building a new home or investing a residential development that you need a residential building contractor. Our FMR Building Services team will collaborate with every party involved in your new home constructions. From the planning phase through to the completion of your home, our team will ensure that open lines of communication are kept to ensure that your dream house comes to life.
When building a residential property, it is pertinent that budgets and timelines are met to avoid halts in construction and unexpected financial strain. Across all departments of your construction process, a residential contractor will ensure that these standards are met so that your residential building project is successful.
2: Knockdown and rebuild
Knocking down an existing residential structure is a great opportunity for homeowners to rebuild the home of their dreams. Starting with a blank slate allows homeowners to communicate to residential builders exactly what they want from their homes (within the restrictions of the land). For residential builders, constructing the residential property of a client’s dreams is much easier with a knockdown and rebuild as they are not met with restrictions from the previous property.
At FMR Building Services, we recommend a knockdown and rebuild for the following reasons.
- When clients want several major changes done to the property
- When properties are not structurally sound
- If clients have the budget to facilitate a knockdown and rebuild
3: Renovation
Residential builders can renovate an existing residential building to accommodate for client’s evolving needs, customisation and improved energy-efficiency/sustainability. Renovations, in most cases, have the potential to increase the value of a home, which is beneficial for property developers or homeowners interested in renting or selling their home.
Renovations can be done to almost any part of a home, including the bathroom and kitchen – two highly requested areas from our client. When you renovate your home with FMR’s residential builders, you will benefit from qualified industry professionals who will ensure that your needs and wants are met once the renovation is completed.
4: Addition of a granny flat
A granny flat is required when a family’s needs change, or if you’re looking to maximise your land space and increase the value of your property. A granny flat is designed for either one or two persons and is self-contained, making it perfect for transitioning your adult children into their own home, or for facilitating independent living of elderly relatives.
Our residential builders will provide you with support, guidance and advice regarding your granny flat, from the planning stage until you’re handed the keys to your extension. A granny flat is similar to constructing an entirely new home and requires the coordination of several different parties. A residential contractor will take charge of this to ensure that your addition is executed within budget and on time.
