AD | How much deposit should you pay a builder? Did you know that’s the wrong question to be asking…
The right question is am I aware and happy with what the builder will be spending that money on? If they can’t give you that information, then the money is out the window and hard to get back if something goes wrong.
So protect your home renovation budget as soon as possible by making sure everything is properly accounted for from deposit through to final payment.
Ask your builder to clearly itemise and document what the deposit relates to, pay for big ticket items directly where possible and make sure you’re protected all the way through your build with an app like
@renno_uk .
Super easy to use, you agree the payment stages with your builder up front, your money stays protected rather than sitting in your builder’s account, and each stage is released only once you’ve seen the evidence and approved it. Reassurance and peace of mind from day one.
Comment DEPOSIT and I’ll send you more information on how to get started with Renno.
