Selecting Your Golf Course Builder

By Amy Cole


As an hotelier, you may be looking for ways to make your establishment more appealing. This may include changing your menu, adding more activities and services to your packages, or even increasing the sporting activities you offer. To accommodate the more elite clientele, you should consider hiring a golf course builder. This is the person who will help turn your grounds into the ideal golf course.

The approach you take when looking for this builder will depend on how involved you plan to be in the construction. You can choose to delegate all the work to the architect and then drop in now and then to assess the progress. However, you can choose the builder yourself and then opt avail yourself regularly to ensure you are updated on the progress of your project.

The person you select should have a good reputation. If they are associated with things like, overcharging clients or disregarding building regulations, you should dismiss them immediately. You can easily get this information by doing some online searches, and talking to customers, they have worked with before.

Your contractor will need to work with many people and therefore, look for a people person. This does not necessarily mean hiring the person who is always smiling, but try to choose a team player. This way, they will get along with your architect and the sub-contractors. It will also ensure that the whole project is completed with as few labor issues as possible.

Many contractors learn their skill while on the job and then go on to get certified, after taking an exam. When choosing who to hire, single out those with certificates proving they underwent some form of formal training. You should also ask to see proof of work they have done or are currently handling. This allows you to see their expertise and you could also benefit by borrowing ideas from their completed projects.

Experts who have not been in this business for long, will not have the work experience required for a large project. Therefore, consider partnering them with the more experienced contractors. This methodology will allow you to benefit from the accumulated experience of one individual and the enthusiasm and new ideas of the other.

The better connected the contractor you choose, the better for you. Going for someone like this will give you access to their many connections, which you could use to your advantage. It will also guarantee that the subcontractors hired are familiar with the work and each other and will, therefore, complement each other while they work.

A builder who also offers additional services like renovations will also be a good choice. This person can be kept on retainer to handle any maintenance or repairs required. You may also use the same person for a similar project in future since they will already be familiar with your likes and dislikes. Your loyalty to the same company could also earn your discounted services, which will come in handy.
