In this course I guide you step by step through the whole construction process.
I tell you what’s going to happen, who is involved and what they do. And most importantly, what is expected of you and when. I talk about your critical obligations under a building contract, and professional strategies to get the most out of your construction team. I tell you all the critical information you need to know during construction to remove stress and uncertainty and help you be prepared. And finally, I give you advice on effective, environmental cleaning products to maintain your new home in good condition for the long term.
I put the course information together with the help of builders and trades, so it’s full of insider knowledge that only comes from working on a construction site.
Whatever your project size or situation, whatever you are planning, I will give you the construction site confidence you need to get the best outcome.
