tony scott Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 My wife and I have purchased a plot of land between Bordeaux and Bergerac. We have detailed planning permission for a house but don't know anyone in the area that can recommend a good builder to take the project from foundations to completion. Are their any ways of locating local firms, also ways of checking there credentials? All suggestions and recommendations greatfully received.

Patf Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 First try asking at the Mairie in your village. There may be someone local. Another idea is to drive round looking for newbuild going on, usually on the outskirts of a town. Speak to the builder working there and have a look at his work at the same time. Pat.

Audois Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 As per PatF says, have a look locally. But do be aware that builders doing up houses may not have the insurance cover to do new builds; the two are vastly different! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
