Frequently Asked Questions
General Building Questions
What areas do you service?
We’re based in Bendigo and work throughout Central Victoria, including nearby regional towns. Contact us to confirm if we cover your location.
Do you only do new home builds?
No — we also specialise in custom home builds, home renovations, home extensions, and commercial building projects tailored to your needs.
What’s the difference between a renovation and an extension?
A renovation updates or reconfigures existing spaces. An extension adds new space — such as an additional room, a larger living area, or a second storey.
Costs and Contracts
How much will my build cost?
Costs depend on size, design, selections, and site conditions. We provide a clear quote and scope of work so you know exactly what’s included.
Do you offer fixed-price or cost-plus contracts?
We offer both, depending on the project. Cost-plus contracts is common for custom or complex work where flexibility is important.
Timeline and Process
How long does the building process take?
A typical custom home build can take 6–12 months from the start of construction. Renovations, extensions, and commercial building projects often can range from 3–9 months, depending on complexity, required approvals, and the availability of materials and trades. Timeframes can still vary, so we’ll confirm a more accurate schedule once we know the full scope of your project.
Can you help with design and plans?
Yes. We work with trusted designers and draftspeople to create plans that suit your budget, style, and site.
Can I make changes after construction starts?
Yes, but changes may affect cost and timeline. We’ll confirm any variations in writing before proceeding. See our change order process for details.
Permits and Approvals
Do you handle permits and approvals?
Yes — we manage all required building permits and coordinate with council and relevant authorities.
