The contractor and his liability

Choosing the right contractor is a crucial step in any renovation project.

A serious contractor must be registered, have professional indemnity insurance and, for certain jobs, ten-year insurance covering serious defects affecting the stability of the building.

In Belgium, the contractor is responsible for :

  • Proper execution of the work

  • Conformity to the rules of the trade

  • Compliance with technical standards

Build Group Consult supports its customers in analyzing quotations, verifying warranties and selecting reliable contractors.

Managing costs and delays

Budget overruns and delays are common in renovation projects.

They are often linked to :

  • Incomplete specifications

  • poor coordination

  • Technical modifications during construction

Rigorous management enables us to anticipate unforeseen events and control actual costs in relation to the planned budget.

Energy renovation

Energy renovation is a major ecological and financial challenge.

It enables :

  • Reduce energy bills over the long term

  • Improve thermal comfort

  • Enhance the value of your property

In Belgium, regional bonuses encourage such work.

Renovating lost spaces

Cellars, attics and annexes represent potential added value.

Renovating these spaces can :

  • Increase living space

  • Improving functionality

  • Increase the value of the property

Each situation must be analyzed according to technical and urban planning constraints.

Successful renovation

A successful renovation involves :

  • A global vision

  • Consistent technical choices

  • Quality materials

  • Rigorous execution

Anticipating the future means you don't have to start all over again.

Renovation grants

Incentives vary according to region and type of work.

They require :

  • An understanding of the conditions

  • Precise administrative procedures

  • Compliance with technical criteria

Planning permission

Some renovations require planning permission according to :

  • The nature of the work

  • Structural impact

  • Modification of external appearance

Failure to comply may result in sanctions.

Buying to renovate

Before purchasing, it is essential to check :

  • Structural condition

  • Humidity

  • The roof

  • Technical installations

  • Town-planning constraints

The wrong assessment can turn an opportunity into a costly project.
