The skills of a builder is the key to a successful building project!

No matter how beautiful your design looks on paper, it's not the same if you hire an inexperienced builder to bring it to life. Building corrosion and failure can be put down to inferior materials and poor or incorrect construction methods. Your builder must be professionally skilled to size, shape and choose materials that ensure that the structure of your home is not stressed beyond critical levels and at risk of collapse. Think of building projects as a long-term investment for your family. Save yourself the headache of future problems by hiring the right builder from the start.

How to properly install a window...

You'd be surprised to hear how much thought and work goes into installing a window properly! Builders must take great care in ensuring that the window placement and use of materials support and maintain the quality and integrity of the home. Condensation on a window drips down onto the frame making it vulnerable to rot. A builder must understand these factors and use the right approach/materials to mitigate any of these risks from happening. Paint supports the structure of the window, while also setting a foundation for the glass that helps it and makes the putty last longer. This is often a detail that is overlooked by many builders, but it's essential! To learn more, drop us an email on [email protected].

Your builder's skills...they matter! Here's why.

Your architect's beautiful designs won't matter if you have an inexperienced builder working on them! The integrity of piers, beams and slabs is pivotal and must never be compromised by shortcuts or inexperienced workmanship. Builders who use a more progressive approach use advanced technologies to review the structural integrity of your building, including assessing crack depth, corrosion and internal wall structures. The lesson here? Never skimp on key people who are responsible for bringing your project to life. To learn more, drop us an email on [email protected].

Why grinding and sanding is essential for any project

Measure twice, cut once...but it doesn't end there ☝️. Chances are, your builder is going to be using wood as part of your renovation. But aside from close measurements, what you might not know is that all cuts of wood must be flush and sanded. Your builder might've cut wood with accuracy, but if the saw blade has not passed through the wood properly, it will leave a rough cut, sometimes with a burr. Even if you paint and prime these wooden elements, the rough edges can make it susceptible to water damage. This is why achieving a spotless and polished finish matters. It's not just about the looks, it's essential to avoiding problems in the future.

The power of rain...

Rain doesn't just have the potential to damage your roof ☝️... If you own a heritage home in Perth's suburbs, it's essential to check the integrity of your foundations (even if you're not going through a renovation!). Older homes were often built with downpipes coming off the roof and straight onto the ground. Over time, the rainwater softens the ground, causing your house to sink and crack in that area due to settlement. If you're in the process of renovating your home, your builder should keep this in mind and address any issues that might challenge the structural integrity of your home.

The quality of nails are important...here's why!

When your builder boasts that they use the best materials, it's worth asking whether they also take into consideration the quality of their nails 🔨... It's such a small detail, but hear us out! It’s hard to imagine that a simple thing as choice of nail has such an impact on your home’s durability, but it really does. Weak or incorrect use of nails leaves your whole structure exposed to excessive corrosion and very vulnerable to collapse. This is just ONE of the very many details you should consider during the renovation process. To learn more, drop us an email on [email protected].

Do fasteners really matter?

What do nails, screws and fasteners have to do with home renovations 🤔? Aside from keeping things together, choosing the right fastening materials can have a big effect on your project. Galvanised nails are hot dip coated in zinc to protect the surface of the metal, which makes them stronger and more durable, extending the life of the nail up to 100 years. In contrast, zinc plated nails are coated using a current of electricity, providing a thinner, less durable coating, which should never be relied upon to keep your house intact. Hard to believe that something as small as a screw or nail can make a huge difference in maintaining the integrity of your home, but this is just the beginning! There are other details that are often overlooked by builders and homeowners that should be taken into consideration in order to achieve the best building outcome.

Is your home prepared for winter?

Winter is coming...is your home REALLY prepared 🌧? You don't even have to be in the middle of a renovation to check the integrity of your home's foundations. The whole city of Perth is built on sand, which makes building homes a bit like building on the beach. Older homes were often built with downpipes coming off the roof and straight onto the ground. These factors combined can spell disaster for homes that are not structurally ready for the chillier seasons. Reach out and talk to your local builder to see what can be done to preserve the integrity of your home. After all, there's no harm in being prepared!
