Specialists/Tradesmen or Building Company?

Bex0

We are buying a semi detached 3 bed house (approx 90sq m) that will require some renovations;
- Kitchen renovation (good quality oak kitchen, so we will keep the cabinets) - repainting doors, new counter tops, splashback, new sink and tap, new appliances.
- All walls and ceilings painted
- All floors done (laminate floor)

We are trying to decide if it's better to hire several specialists/tradesmen for each job or it's better to hire a building company who specializes in renovations so they can take on the full project.

Of course, we understand that hiring a company that can do all of the works will be less hassle but perhaps it will end up being more expensive and worse quality.

I would appreciate if you can share your thoughts and experience. What would you do?

I think you might struggle to get a building company to take on such small scale work.

Personally I would get,
1 - kitchen company to do the kitchen.
2 - Decorators to decorate.
3 - Carpenter for flooring (kitchen company might look at this also)
