Description of Getting The Builders in
Get the job done on time and on budget…

Reducing the time and cost of a building project is the key to success. The popularity of self-build and renovation is on the increase. Many home owners climbing up the property ladder are deciding to do-it-themselves.

If it is the first time a home owner has ever built, renovated or converted a house, then the prospect of turning a dream into reality can be quite daunting.

In his book, Getting the Builders In experienced project manager Leonard Sales, covers all the critical areas related to domestic project management – the regulations to be met and the best ways to manage works from start to finish. While common sense is a necessity for any form of management, there are some procedures that require specific attention, and when it comes to construction nothing can be left to chance. This step-by-step approach to the fundamentals will help to give readers confidence in making their decisions and staying within their budget. Updated for the second edition, the book includes simple-to-use management techniques that the author has himself used successfully, and that would suit projects with values ranging from one thousand to one million pounds.
