To build an individual property requires a very thorough understanding of modern house building and the ever increasing building and related regulations.
The technical, contractual and financial risks implicit in modern property development can be immeasurable. If you have the time, energy and the expertise, then you can manage the project yourself. If not, then it is a job best delegated to a specialist company such as Phoenix Park Design & Build.
Selecting an Architect
Once you have secured your desired plot of land to build your property, choosing an architect is the next step.
There is a wide spectrum of architects to choose from. Some may only be interested in very large projects; others may charge exorbitant rates, so it is essential to get the right match between your requirements and your chosen architect.
Phoenix Park Design & Build works closely with several architects on both large and small developments, so we can advise on a suitable choice and help to ensure that your ideas are converted into a practical and economic design.
Planning & Organising
The building of a property is a project which has to be planned, scheduled and resourced in the most timely and efficient manner. To do so requires a thorough understanding of all of the elements that make up the development. It requires experience in dealing with both suppliers and subcontractors to the building trade, and on the ever increasing multitude of government regulations. Knowing where to source materials at the best price and getting them delivered at the right time can be critical. If the materials are not suitable or of inferior quality, but comply with your order, then what do you do?
Equally, how do you judge if a subcontractor's workmanship is acceptable, and how do you handle the situation if you think it's unacceptable? Unfortunately, the cowboys also tend to be the most plausible. This is where Phoenix Park Design & Build's experience will make the whole process stress free. We only employ subcontractors of the very highest standard who have been in their line of business for many years and our suppliers provide the very best quality of materials.
