Our last build (our current house) we managed it largely in budget, however:I think the main reason for going over budget is adding extra work on that’s not in the original plan. We went over budget because it made sense to make changes as we went along. Which in time will save money.
- the structural engineer went overboard after building regs questioned a foundation pad - this resulted in considerable extra cost!
- our entire ground floor subfloor needing replacing.
Both of these items could not have been foreseen, building work always throws up these issues!
