Construction Clinic Live
An evening for homeowners who would rather understand than guess.
Our live clinics give homeowners a calm, structured place to ask practical questions about quotes, builders, planning approval, variations, payments, delays, snagging and handover.
Bring your checklist, your concern, or one decision you are unsure about.
Clinics run locally, with dates released to the invitation list first. You do not need to know the technical language to attend.
Who it is for
- Homeowners with planning approval wondering what comes next
- Anyone awaiting a planning decision
- People considering an extension, loft or refurbishment
- Homeowners already on site who feel unsure about something
- Anyone comparing quotes or about to sign a contract
- Neighbours and nearby residents simply wanting to understand
What you will leave understanding
- What planning approval does and does not give you
- How to compare quotes that look nothing alike
- What belongs in a domestic contract
- How variations should be raised, priced and agreed
- How to read a payment request against real progress
- What a realistic programme looks like
- When a concern on site deserves escalation
- What proper handover, snagging and aftercare involve

Get the Construction Confidence Checklist
Before you choose a builder, accept a quote, approve a payment or start work, understand the questions every homeowner should ask. This free guide gives you practical tools to spot gaps, reduce uncertainty and make better construction decisions.
This guide helps you identify the gaps. The Construction Clinic helps you understand what those gaps mean for your project.
The checklist gives you a starting point. At The Construction Clinic live sessions, homeowners can bring their questions and understand how these tools apply to their own project.
Bring your quote, concern or one key project question to a future Construction Clinic session.
