What is the average waiting time to hire builders?

Question

What is the average waiting time to hire builders to construct a garage at the side of a property? Does this depend on the region in the country and any other factors? Thanks for your time.

Doesn’t depend on the region or country 
Between 8-10 weeks depending on the drawings and size of the garage

Lewis · Answer

Bit of advice if a builder says he can start tomorrow morning. Look more into him very very rare you will have a good builder starting the same week!

Paul · Answer

There could be many factors. You have to ask yourself: Are they available? Is there a shortage of workers? Like you said it could be the area.

Hi there

It really does vary. It can be true that a good builder will be booked for months in advance but this isn’t always the case. Most builders from time to time will have a slow period so don’t be surprised if a very good capable builder can get to you in a short timeframe 

Hope this helps

Depends on how big the firm is at busy times you could be waiting a few months but small jobs not so much

Depending upon the planning requirements usually a single garage isn’t going to need planning permission, building regs require 2 weeks notice so really down to how quickly your chosen contractor can start the works of your in Essex google my Essex builder
