In the construction world, where every brick, nail, and beam has its purpose, landscaping often takes a back seat. However, at Prescom Constructions, we understand that a house is more than just a structure; it's a home, a sanctuary, and a reflection of the people who live there. A well-designed landscape is not just a finishing touch but a powerful tool that can significantly enhance a home's value and curb appeal, and more importantly, it can transform a house into a dream home, inspiring you with its beauty and tranquillity.
Landscaping isn't just about planting trees and shrubs; it's about creating an outdoor space that harmonises with your home and the surrounding environment. Climate can be both a blessing and a challenge, so selecting the right plants is crucial. By opting for native species that can thrive in our local conditions and require less water, you're not just adding beauty to your property but also contributing to a sustainable environment.
Designing outdoor spaces that invite relaxation and enjoyment is equally essential. Imagine the possibilities of creating zones in your garden—a cozy corner for morning coffee, a lush lawn for the kids to play, and a pergola draped with flowering vines for evening gatherings. These spaces enhance your living experience. The potential of your outdoor space is inspiring.
As Liberty Hyde Bailey wisely said, “A garden requires patient labour and attention. Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfil good intentions. They thrive because someone expended effort on them.” At Prescom Constructions, the same care and dedication you put into your garden can help your home flourish in beauty and value.

Prime Costs (PC) and Provisional Sums (PS) are essential terms in construction quotes. Prime Costs cover allowances for materials like fixtures or appliances that haven't been selected yet, offering flexibility but potentially leading to additional costs if more expensive options are chosen. Provisional Sums are estimates for work not fully defined when quoting, like excavation or retaining walls, and may change due to unforeseen circumstances. Understanding the distinction helps homeowners manage budgets and avoid surprises during the building process.

A pre-handover inspection is crucial when taking possession of a new home to ensure any issues or defects are addressed before the final settlement. Key areas to check include the structural integrity (e.g., walls, floors), fittings and fixtures (e.g., taps, doors, windows), kitchen appliances, bathroom tiles and plumbing, electrical systems, and finishes like paintwork and flooring. By thoroughly inspecting these aspects, homeowners can prevent costly repairs later and ensure a smooth transition into their new home.
