Getting started

We've got a block of land. Can you take it from here?

Yes. We can handle everything from site assessment and design to approvals, construction and handover. If you have already engaged an architect or designer, we will work with them. See design and build.

Do you provide architectural services as well?

We manage the full design process with experienced building designers and engineers, or we can price and build your own architect's design.

Do you build from our own plans?

Yes. Send them through and we will provide a detailed price.

How much does it cost to build a custom home?

It depends on size, site conditions, design and level of finish. We discuss your budget at the first meeting and provide a fixed-price contract once the design is settled.

Is the first consultation free?

Yes. The first consultation and site visit are free and there is no obligation.

Types of projects

Do you do smaller renovations and extensions?

Yes. We take on renovations and extensions of all sizes, as well as kitchens, bathrooms and decks. See renovations and extensions.

We just need a pool. Can you help?

Yes. We build pools and outdoor spaces as standalone projects. See pools and outdoor living.

My block size is small. Is that a problem?

Not at all. We design and build homes for blocks of every size. See small lot homes.

We have an existing home. Do you do knockdown rebuilds?

Yes. We manage demolition, approvals and the new build under one contract. See knockdown rebuild.

Do you build duplexes and granny flats?

During the build

Can you help us select finishes?

Yes. We guide you through selections in stages during the build, so you are never rushed into decisions and can see the home taking shape first.

What other trades will I need to organise for my home or renovation?

None. We manage all trades, including in-house plumbing, electrical, pools and outdoor spaces, and coordinate approvals and inspections.

Who will be our point of contact?

You deal directly with Brendan and your dedicated project manager the whole way through.

How will we know how the build is progressing?

Your project manager provides regular updates and holds site meetings at key stages.

After handover

What if we find an issue after the build is complete?

Let us know and we will come back and fix it. Your home is also protected by the QBCC Home Warranty Scheme, which covers structural defects for up to six years and six months, and non-structural defects for a shorter period after completion.

Does our build come with QBCC insurance?

Yes. All residential work over the QBCC threshold is covered by QBCC Home Warranty Insurance, which protects you if the contractor fails to complete the work and against defects after handover.
