Why book builders through Airtasker?

It can be quite an adventure to work on your own building and construction project.

Top Building & Construction related questions

Costs vary based on several factors such as your location, your preferred materials, the complexity of the project, and your main contractor. On average, building a house can cost you £1,800 to £3,000 per square metre.

While this is possible, it’s not ideal to build your own property unless you have proven experience and the proper equipment for construction work. Hire a Tasker instead to save you from the stress and hassle of overseeing the construction project. By working with a legitimate builder, you can ensure a smooth process, durable finish, and strict compliance with building regulations.

The duration of your project depends on several factors, including the size of your property, type of service, number of Taskers involved, and level of customisation required.

As a general guide, constructing a shed can take a few days to several weeks, depending on your Tasker’s skill level and the materials used. Building a gazebo varies with the material. A simple wooden frame can be constructed in six to 12 hours with two to three people, while a custom build may take one to two days with a full building team. For home building and construction, building a house to a standard design can take at least seven months to finish. Custom homes can take anywhere between nine months to a year for a full completion.

For a more accurate and clear understanding of the timeline of your construction project, consult your Tasker.

Not necessarily. Your Tasker will have the necessary tools like hammers and nails, screws, saws, screwdrivers, and many others. However, if you have your own tools and prefer to use them, you can arrange this with your Tasker. Simply inform them beforehand so they know which tools to bring.

When choosing a home builder, consider their accreditations, licences, and certifications. Look for solid experience and a proven portfolio with a strong success record. Assess the builder’s team—each member should be experienced and well-coordinated. Make sure they prioritise high-quality materials and demonstrate top-notch workmanship. Ultimately, select a builder who can meet your specific needs and preferences as a client.

It would be ideal if you already have a clear vision of what your property will be for and what it would look like. If you have yet to finalise this, consider hiring an interior architect to help you come up with a concrete idea for the design and layout of your property.

What do building services include?

If you’re planning to commence your construction project soon, use Airtasker to find highly skilled building and construction experts who can turn your vision into reality. Whether your project is simple or complex, you can certainly connect with reliable contractors and new home builders near you who are equipped and determined to handle every aspect, from planning to completion. Avail these top-notch services to save yourself from stress, win back time, and enjoy quality results.


Swimming pool construction

Building a swimming pool is your best choice if you want a place in your backyard to relax, cool off, and entertain. Hire pool builders who can design and construct the perfect pool for your space, whether you prefer in-ground or above-ground. By working with seasoned Taskers, you can expect to receive a smooth installation process and a stunning result. Once your pool is set up, don’t forget to book cleaners to help maintain it!


Pergola construction

A well-designed pergola can effortlessly liven up your outdoor living area. This addition beautifies your garden while also creating a functional space for working, meditating, or relaxing. Hire home builders to construct a pergola that complements your lifestyle and home design. To make it even more inviting, tidy up your garden or spruce it up with more plants.


Shed building and construction

For those who need additional space at home, a shed is a versatile option that can benefit any property. Hire a Tasker to build a custom shed specifically for your needs, whether you’ll use it for your garden, as a workshop, or as extra storage space. To make it more durable, you can also book a shed cladding service.


Home building and construction

Whether you are finally setting up your dream home, simply looking to renovate your current space, or adding an extension for more room, you can enlist new home builders near you to assist. These experts can manage every step, from initial design to final construction. If you're working within a strict timeline, inform your Tasker so they can adjust accordingly to meet your expectations.


You can also order custom furniture once your home construction is finished to make your new or renovated space truly unique.


Demolition

Planning to start anew or clear your space for a new construction project? Get a Tasker who can safely and efficiently handle your demolition needs. Seasoned builders can guarantee a safe and efficient process, and have the capability and equipment to handle any project size, whether you need to clear small structures or an entire house.


After the demolition, make sure to book Taskers to thoroughly clean the area. Need to start thinking of the next project? You can also hire building designers on Airtasker.

New garden shed base and shed installation

£500

Tooting Bec, Greater London, SW17

16th Aug 2026

Before the task, I need whoever is interested to survey the area and discuss the task once to ensure we're all clear on the task needed to be done. I have an old 6x4 garden shed base surrounded by artificial turf. I need the base removed and I need to replace it with a 10x4 garden shed base. I want the ground levelled and a weed membrane put down before putting in the 10x4 base. I then want a Power shed of 10x4 installed. I'm getting a wooden base with stakes with the shed. The distance between the fence and the garden boundary is 4*, so it may require some moving the wooden boundary a ft or so in to make space for putting in the shed. I've removed the base in the picture now.
