Construction

Q. How long does it take to build a house?
ANSWER - Once you are happy with your plans we draw up a contract and specifications and sit down with you to go through them and sign making sure you are happy with everything. Once you sign and pay the deposit we can then send away for soil testing and get your plans to council. This process can take 4-6 weeks. After we come out of council we like to start straight away and from here the build will take between 4 and 5 months.
Q. Do you do traditional or monolithic slabs?

Finance

Q. I don't have a deposit yet, can I start the process now while I'm still saving?
ANSWER - Yes, you can. Good financial management is all about planning. By having a set target you can achieve your goals faster as well as being able to show finance companies a genuine saving record which is a requirement. The first step in the process would be to talk to our financier and get an idea of where you stand financially and how far away you are from achieving your dream. We know this can be an intimidating process but sitting down with somebody that is geniunely trying to help you with your goals and can give you a clear path is a great place to start.
