Building or buying a home is often a milestone in a life and a real investment. A house becomes a home. The right construction partner is essential to ensure the process runs smoothly and to prevent unpleasant surprises. A good guideline for working with the right construction partner is the Charter der Woningbouwers, a quality label for honest, reliable and solid construction. It offers you safety to the client and protects against unnecessary risks. After all, companies that are members of the Charter meet strict conditions.
What is the Charter of Residential Builders?
- The contractors holding the Charter are recognized in category D, at least in class 2. It proves they are a sound company from a technical, economic and financial point of view. However, Wyckaert is doing better and is recognized in class 8, the highest possible class.
- Commitment to comply with the provisions of the Breyne Act, which means a client enjoys a lot of legal protections.
More specifically, the contractor will offer ythe following benefits and guarantees:
- Before the start a construction company has a lot of start-up costs. Nevertheless, a member of the Charter will only ask you a maximum of 5% of the contract amount as an advance.
- Interim invoice payments. Once the works are in progress, you only pay for the works already carried out, in other words, from then on, you no longer pay any advances.
- A member of the Charter will plan 2 moments of acceptance. First the provisional acceptance. A year later, the final acceptance will follow.
- The construction company provides a financial guarantee to meet its obligations. This way you enjoy the absolute certainty that your home will be completely finished.
