From concept to handover — we bring your vision to life with fixed pricing, clear timelines and exceptional craftsmanship.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I choose my own Designer?
Of course! If you are set on a designer that you have already been in contact with, we can work with them right from the start!
Can I make interior selections myself?
You can make your finish selections yourself! We have been building homes for a long time and have a pretty keen eye for what looks good and what doesn’t, so we can assist you as little or as much as you need. We always like to see an interior designer involved if your budget permits.
What is a Preliminary Agreement?
Once we have completed phase 1, and the budget is close and all parties are happy to move forward, we draft a preliminary agreement. This agreement is a simple document that sets out start dates, build budget, and deposit amounts. The purpose of it is to lock in your commencement dates while we complete the rest of the documentation and selections with you. Without this agreement, you may be ready to build, though due to our project demand, you will likely have to wait until we have a slot available. Completing the preliminary agreement gives you preference on starting dates.
How long will the build take?
Typically, our builds are 10 months long. If your house design is simpler or easier to build, then the time will be less, and likewise, if it is a higher-budget, more complex build. Before we provide you with the final contract, we complete a detailed build schedule noting every single element and step involved. We do this not only for our streamlined building process but so you can track the build as it progresses and know at any given time where the build is up to.
Who will be my main contact during the build?
Each of our projects has its own dedicated Project Manager. Our Project Managers typically only oversee 1 or 2 jobs at any given time. This ensures that they can commit their time and full attention to your build and will be your right-hand guy and advocate for the entire process.
How do I know my budget will be met?
We understand the fear of not knowing the costs in the early stages. This is why we have created this process, to ensure you are only making small commitments before knowing the price. We value transparency & will keep you updated at every stage of the process!
How do I know there won’t be cost blowouts?
One of the reasons we have gone to so much effort to create and follow this process is to ensure that when we go to the final contract, there are no allowance items (except earthworks or items you may not wish to select yet). This means you will have a fully fixed price contract. Under the Queensland legislation, the builder of a residential home does not have the contractual right to pass on costs that have changed if a fixed price contract was entered. Once we sign our contract, you are safe from any cost increases that the industry might see.
