• S3 E19 Mortgage for Subcontractors With Sarah Tucker
    Dec 12 2024

    Hello and welcome to the Mortgage Mum podcast. It's bittersweet, because this is our last episode relating to contractors.

    Tessa is going to be asking me your mortgage questions and this time, we're talking about subcontractors and giving you some clarity on what that means for getting a mortgage.

    It's been a good series. I think it's helped a lot of people. A lot of feedback we've had is that we're helping to show the many layers of the contractor world.

    In this special episode of The Mortgage Mum Podcast, Sarah interview Jon Mathews, Founder & MD of Hawksbeck Annexe and Garden Rooms.

    Join us as we take a deep dive into garden rooms and annexes, telling you everything you need to know, including:

    • What are the top tips for finding the right builder to create your garden room?
    • Do garden rooms add value to your house? What are the red flags when researching?

    • How you can create an income from your property by building an annexe or a garden room
    • As well as hearing some of Jon’s story as a business owner, from an employed finance role in the City to building garden rooms for one of the most well respected brands in the industry

    This is an episode not to be missed!

    Jon said “I’m Jon, Founder of Hawksbeck Annexes and Garden Rooms. I set up Hawksbeck because there was a real need for people to have a space away from the house to work, rest and play. We have been a pioneer in annex and garden room space, building bespoke outbuildings that will last a lifetime. All our buildings are built to the highest standard using BBA accredited materials. They are design by architects and engineers and meet building regulations. Therefore, they are fully habitable and come with a 10-year insurance backed warranty. I name the company Hawksbeck, as that was my first dogs pedigree name. I absolutely love the dog, and absolutely love the name, so seemed perfect fit to name the company after him. I’m proud that name has now become synonymous with quality, service, and design. I'm passionate about what I do. I love the first meeting with the client, being involved in the design journey with them, overseeing the built process, then they joy and excitement when we handover the keys to a stunning finish product. I often get asked my favourite project, it is always the next project we're about to do. No two builds are the same, no two clients are the same!”
