The service

You make the decisions. We make them happen.

A custom home involves a dozen parties: agent, surveyor, designer, engineer, certifier, council, builder, bank. Each one waits on another. We sit in the middle and keep them all moving.

You get one point of contact, one schedule and one set of numbers, from the first look at a block to the day you get the keys.

Who it's for

Three ways to start.

A

You already own a block.

We check what it will take to build there, then take the project from design brief to handover.

B

You're still looking.

We help find and assess land before you buy, so the block suits the home you want and the budget you have.

C

You're knocking down to rebuild.

Demolition, services and the new build, coordinated so the gap between old house and new is as short as possible.

How it works

Six steps to the keys.

Each step ends with a clear decision for you and a written record of where things stand.

We sit down with you to set the brief, the budget and the timeline that matters to you.

What's included

What you get from us.

The same four things on every project, whatever its size.

01

One schedule.

Every task, consultant and consent on one timeline, updated as things move.

02

Weekly reports.

Photos, progress and next steps in plain language, every week of the build.

03

Cost tracking.

Budget against actuals, with variations flagged before they're approved.

04

Independent eyes.

We inspect on your behalf at each stage, not the builder's.

Questions

Asked often.

We're project managers. We coordinate the builder and every other party on your behalf, so you have someone on your side through the whole process.
Yes. We can work with people you've already chosen, or help you find and tender for them.
As early as possible, ideally before you buy land. The decisions made in the first weeks shape the cost of everything after them.
Talk to us about your site. We'll tell you plainly whether we're the right fit.
Fees depend on the scope and the stages you need us for. We'll give you a written fee proposal after our first conversation.
