Hi everyone,
We are considering a fairly major project to build an extension over our existing garage but trying to find a decent building company is proving to be a bit of a PITA though.
I got a couple of numbers from neighbours in the area who have recently had work done, and when I have called these numbers the people I speak to seem nice enough but they never seem to follow through on promises to call me back to arrange a time to come out and look at the property.
Earlier in the year I contacted what seemed to be a fairly reputable company who came out and assessed our requirements, but again never came back to me.
It almost instantly puts me off when people don't come back to me, I hate having to chase people as if I am asking for some sort of favour.
Am I being overly harsh, or should I just continue looking for someone else?
And for those who have had major projects done - how did you find and settle on a company to do the work?
Thanks
