Working With Judges Building Services
We often amaze our clients-to-be with the claim that we complete rear dormer lofts in 3/4 weeks or a hip-to-gable / rear dormer loft in 4/5 weeks. They then see we are as good as our word. There’s no ‘magic’ to how we work more quickly than most firms and it isn’t down to rushing or cutting corners. We do it by carefully organizing supply runs, issuing our builders with their tools rather than expecting them to bring their own, by setting realistic targets that we expect fulfilled and by setting a full work day. Our men are expected to leave for work by 5.30am to be in the site area before delays caused by morning traffic can be encountered, then wait for whatever time it has been agreed we will start.
Our teams normally start by 7.30-8am, leave no earlier than 4pm and eat on the go. No lunch hour and no tea breaks. By insisting on full commitment to working and working smart, we are able to build with the dispatch that not only benefits the client but us as a company. We get to build more projects and our men earn more by those extra completed works. It’s also a great advertisement for us to the neighbours, who appreciate us quickly getting out of their hair with minimal fuss. They often become future clients.
Fixed Price Contracts
When we meet you, we will issue a ‘quotation,’ not an ‘estimate.’ That means, should you accept that price, that is what you will pay. We don’t ask for a ‘contingency’ of ‘leeway’ in the final figure and, if we find we undercharged you later, then we rightfully take the loss. The one exception is in the rare event that we discover a severe structural issue that was impossible to detect during initial surveys. In short, we want to play fair and hope you remember that when you talk about us.
Maintaining Good Communication
Nothing concerns a client or damages our relationship with a client faster that poor communication. That’s why you will have at least four personal contact numbers, ( Harry, Jorden, Lee and your Team Leader ) plus the number for our permanently manned office. This ensures you should be able to initiate contact, at any time, with someone available to help or advise.
We also take care to include you as intimately as possible in the design of your project, from the initial drawings through to careful collaboration on fixtures and fittings to help you make your ‘mark’ on your home. And we are open to any feasible suggestions you may have if you are looking to push the boundaries of possibility to do something ‘different’ in your home. Why be conventional?
Clear Designation of Responsibility
Our work teams all have a specified ‘Team Leader,’ who is responsible for the conduct and efficiency of the team, both to our clients and to the company. The Team Leaders report to Harry and Jorden, who administrate and own the company. You’ll find we go out of our way to prevent problems arising but, if they do, there is a clear chain of responsibility to deal with the issue.
Payment Schedule
The great majority of construction companies expect either large sums of money in advance and/ or an agreement for the client to pay immediately upon completion of various work ‘stages.’ Instead, we agree that our client must feel fully satisfied not just with the completion of works but also with the work quality. We ask for a quick email stating we have performed that work stage to your satisfaction before request that stage payment. It’s a sign of how committed we are to ensuring you are happy and of our confidence in our men.
Work Diary
We expect our Team Leaders to provide a quick, daily emailed update as to any issues encountered and why. This allows us to continually assess our performance and remedy areas in which we can improve work efficiencies.
Survey and Aftercare
We are bringing in a new policy where we will ask you to participate in a quick survey at the end of the project to ‘grade’ your satisfaction level for everything from how clean and tidy our team worked through to the level of communication we achieved as a company. We also ask you to critique us and offer any advice as to how we can improve our service. This will lead to a ‘score’ by which we can monitor the performance of our men and learn how to further improve our practices.
We also take pride in our aftercare. We keep all quotations and contracts permanently on file and so can easily review in the event of any future issues that need attention. You will find we are happy to remain in contact long after the job is done to address any problems that may emerge. If anything, our clients often feel more reassured when we quickly return to fix some small problem after the job is finished because they know how seriously we take our commitment to them into the future.
