Common Home Building Mistakes

Before your dream home

becomes a reality there

are few things you need

to do to make sure it

doesn't become a house

of problems.

`

1. Hiring Without A Survey

Look for licensed, insured and well-experienced

builders that will give you your money's worth.

• Hiring contractor without reference.

• Unqualified & unlicensed Contractor.

2. Using Inferior Quality Material

• Selection of poor quality cheap materials.

• Inadequate and improper proportioning of mixed constituents of concrete, mortar etc.

• Addition of excess water in concrete and mortar mixes.

Use high quality construction materials for foundation for a solid home.

3. Poorly Planned Roofing

The roof protects the walls and therefore while building much consideration needs to be placed upon the roof.

- The effects of environmental degradation- Poor installation and unsatisfactory workmanship- Poor construction practices and supervision- Poverty, ignorance and petty savings

4. Build House More Than You Need

Your house should not be too larger, instead, it

should be built “just right.” While planning your

home take careful consideration of your

requirements and lifestyle.

Building a house more than your necessity is also counted under mistake of home building.

5. Not Planning Your Budget Realistically

It is very important that you take some time to sit

down and plan a realistic budget to ensure that you

do not over spend in the process.

Spending more than you make is also one of the reasons of improper planning of budget which often results in the failure of your dream house.

6. Making Changes after Building Plans are Finalised

Any changes made after the implementation of the

whole plan can throw the whole project off and

trigger a domino effect of problems and costs.

7. Decide What You Need Before Your Build & then Build to Meet Those

Needs

Proper planning saves both time and money.
