Tender pricing

Once your plan and customisations are finalised, we’ll prepare a comprehensive build price. This includes the home construction and optional extras like landscaping, fencing, or driveways. This transparent pricing approach helps you make informed decisions without surprises.
04

Engineering report

Before construction begins, we’ll organise a detailed engineering report, including soil testing. This ensures your home’s foundation and structural elements are engineered to suit the specific conditions of your block, guaranteeing long-term stability and durability.

Building agreement

Once satisfied with the pricing and plans, we’ll draft the Building Agreement for you to review and sign. This agreement outlines every aspect of your new home, giving you confidence before construction begins.

Preparing the foundations

Site preparation is the first step of construction, involving excavation, leveling, and pouring the concrete slab. This process ensures a sturdy foundation that supports your home’s structure for years to come.
