FAQ

Is construction consulting the same as a building inspection" Bouwkundige Keuring" ?

No, we are not a building inspection agency and we are not certified to perform building inspections. Where a technical inspection ends, we continue. We combine years of practical experience with aesthetics to increase the value of your property.
Our services focus on providing comprehensive construction advice that goes beyond the technical aspects. We help create functional and aesthetically pleasing designs and solutions for your project. When necessary, we work with licensed and certified specialists, such as architects and structural engineers, to ensure that all aspects of your construction project are professionally and competently executed.
With our advice, you are assured of a holistic approach that not only assesses the technical condition of a building, but also explores opportunities for improvement and beautification.

Can I use your construction advice to purchase a home?

Yes, and no. If you want to purchase real estate and you are curious about the possibilities for expansion and improvements, so that you have a clear idea of the potential of your property, we can be of service to you.

However, if you need a building inspection, for example, for your mortgage, we advise you to go with a specialized construction agency. For example, check out: Bouwtechnische keuring – Vereniging Eigen Huis.

How does this differ from a standard building inspection?

While a building inspection primarily focuses on assessing the overall condition of the home and generating a report detailing the estimated costs to address existing and potential issues, it does not offer tailored advice regarding your specific needs and budget for home alterations. This personalized guidance is crucial for making a sound investment in your home.

What do I gain from good construction advice?

Construction consulting is like a second opinion for your remodeling project. It offers independent advice and helps you make the right choices amid the many possibilities and options that a remodel entails. With construction consulting, you are free to work with any contractor to help you make the best decision for your project.

Can it be financed out of my mortgage?

Yes, in many cases it is possible to finance construction consulting and interior design with a mortgage. Whether this is possible depends on several factors, including the type of mortgage you have and the specific terms of your mortgage lender. In general, home improvements that are fixed and not relocatable, such as structural changes or remodeling, can be financed with your mortgage. However, it is wise to discuss this directly with your mortgage advisor to get a clear picture of what is possible in your situation.

What is your process?
