Hello everyone,
We are planning to buy a plot of land next year and want to start dealing with the topic now and be prepared when it goes ahead. Currently, we are inquiring with some prefab house providers, but the tendency is towards self-construction.
So far, I cannot estimate which service providers are needed for self-construction and what exactly each service provider does. For example, who does the foundation slab or basement and what else does this company do? Do I possibly have to arrange a crane, or does service provider XY take care of that directly? I can already imagine a lot for the heating engineer and electrician, but I think I have also heard that the heating engineer also lays the drainage pipes. The shell construction is done by masons, but what else do they do or what all needs to be done?
I hope you understand my concern. If I had an Excel list with all the points, that would be great. Ideally divided by construction phases and also with price ranges for orientation. I want to see which service provider I need first and what they do. Then I can gather information and obtain offers. Then the next service provider, and so on. Of course, there are also points like smart home that are optional, but for example, I know that this can be done by the electrician. In other words, if I want system XY, I can specifically look for an electrician who installs the system in addition to the house electrical work.
I want to use this list during construction as a checklist and cost control. In other words, what costs we have planned and how high the actual costs were.
Are there such lists? I would also be willing to pay money for it if it is really a very good list or even a program from me.
Thanks in advance :-)
Peter
