Home Building and Design in Mudgee and the Central West

A house is a building. A home is something else, and most people only get one go at making one.

We design and build homes across Mudgee and the Central West. New builds, renovations, extensions and heritage restoration, on town blocks and rural properties.

Some of our clients start with a block of land and a fairly clear feeling about how they want to live, and we take it from there through design, approval and construction. Others arrive with finished plans and simply need the right builder.

What clients tell us afterwards is rarely about the building. It is about how it felt to be in it: knowing what was happening, being asked the right questions early, being told the truth when something was difficult. That is the part we work hardest at, and it is the part you live with for the eighteen months it takes.


One team, one point of contact, from the first site visit to the day you get the keys.

WHERE TO START

Design and construct, or build only

Many of our clients start with us at the beginning. Concept, design development, council approval, documentation and build, all managed by the one team..

The advantage is that design, buildability and budget can be considered together. Costing runs alongside the design process, so if a particular decision is going to have a significant impact on the budget, we can have that conversation while there is still time to do something about it.

Some of our projects also come to us already drawn. If you have worked with an architect or designer, or already have an approved DA and are looking for a builder,, send it through. We regularly price and build other people’s drawings, and we are glad to.

Having our own design team works in your favour either way. We read drawings the way we build them, so potential issues can be identified and worked through before they become expensive problems on site.

PROCESS

How we work

At the end of each stage you know what has been decided and what it costs. If you are bringing us finished plans, you join at stage four.

ONE First conversation Your site, what you want to build, roughly what you want to spend. If we are not the right fit, we will say so early.
TWO Site visit and feasibility We walk the block and give you an honest read on what is achievable within your budget.
THREE Concept and design development We develop the design with you, from moodboard to a plan you can picture living in. Costing runs alongside the drawing.
FOUR Council approval and documentation We prepare and lodge your DA or CDC, manage the council process, and produce the construction set your build runs from.
FIVE Build and handover One point of contact, regular updates, and a finish that stands up to close inspection.

CLIENTS

Who we build for

We specialise in custom homes, renovations and heritage restoration, and we bring the same care to a forever home on a block in town as we do to the work that ends up in award entries.

Some of our clients are building the home they intend to stay in. Some are putting a house on acreage or a weekender in the vines. Some are extending the place they’ve been in for twenty years. Some are restoring a property that has stood in the district for well over a century. The budgets aren’t the same and the projects aren’t the same. What our clients have in common is that they want it done properly, and they want to know what is happening while it’s being done.

You will know the people on your site by name.

A significant share of our larger projects are for Sydney clients building in the Central West. We’re used to running a project for someone who can’t be on site every week, and we document and communicate accordingly. We take on a limited number of projects at a time so we can maintain our focus on detail and quality.

Where we work

Mudgee, Gulgong, Rylstone, Kandos, Windeyer, Lue and the surrounding district, and generally anywhere within about 80km of Mudgee. If you’re unsure whether your site is in range, ask us.
