When you decide to construct a new building, you want the structure to be built to last. Whether you’re building a home, barn, outbuilding, or commercial structure, poor construction quality can be costly at any stage. So as you compare bids from builders within Minnesota and the surrounding 5 state area, do not be tempted to sacrifice quality for cost.
The Cost of Poor Construction Quality
When you spend tens of thousands of dollars on a new building, the last thing you want is to spend money on addressing quality issues. Often, builders under-estimate total costs on an initial bid for a project to reduce costs. But to do so, they may cut corners, leading to higher costs down the road.
All construction projects include costs that cover work quality. When you work with a reputable builder, these costs prevent poor construction and material quality. Spending a little more to make sure work is done properly and with quality products will save money down the road. When work is done right, you’ll also avoid additional costs for redesign, rework, and re-inspection.
Poor quality can be a problem at any stage of the construction process, including the design phase, building phase, or long after the inspector has made his final walkthrough. Unsafe or unattractive design, shoddy workmanship, delays in the design and construction process, and cost overruns are all the result of poor quality and cause costs to rise. Poor quality may even lead to costly contract disputes.
