Build Phase: Mistakes to Avoid

Hello! This is Episode #217, and it’s the last of four episodes where I’ve been discussing in more detail the four phases of building or renovating your family home.

In this episode, I’m talking about the Build Phase.

If you haven’t listened to the previous three episodes, I’d really encourage you to do so. In them, you’ll learn about the other three phases of any project, which are:

1. Pre-Design
2. Design
3. Pre-Build

… and you’ll learn the most commonly made mistakes in each of those phases. Effort and time spent in those three phases will enable you to have a smoother Build Phase overall.

So, even if you’re only listening to this because you’re about to start your Build Phase, it’s worthwhile going through those previous three episodes to ensure you’ve covered all your bases before diving into construction.

Now, when you’re planning on renovating or building your future home, it’s natural to be really heavily focussed on the Build Phase. Because it can feel like that’s where all the action is, and many feel that’s where they’ll need the most help.

And yet, many approach the Build Phase of their project without a true understanding of what it should be like, how they can improve their experience, and the steps to take to avoid dramas and issues. They’re in a hurry to get here, and don’t do what’s required to get themselves suitably prepared.

So, I’ll be sharing more about that, and the common mistakes to avoid.

You'll also hear from a HOME Method member about their project experience as well, and how they found it to work with me during their renovation. And I’ll be reminding you about what is currently going on with HOME Method if it’s been on your radar to jump into for your project.

I unfortunately receive lots of emails from homeowners who tell me they discovered Undercover Architect too late.

It’s very hard for me to help you avoid dramas when you’re already bound into a legal agreement via a building contract.

And so I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it’s not too late for you, and right now you’re listening to this podcast to get prepared before you sign a building contract. But even if you’ve already signed one - I think there’ll still be useful info in here for you.
