Find a builder the easy way
What jobs do builders do?
Whether you’re planning a home extension, renovation or new build, a licensed local builder has the skills to make the job come together. This includes the submission to council, to project managing the build and all the trades on your project.
Renovation
Builders are crucial to any renovation project that involves structural works, including home extensions, loft conversions or revamping and remodelling an existing home.
A full service builder will take care of everything from the design, approvals and the actual build - including managing all the trades or subcontractors on your project.
The best way of getting an estimate of the cost of your renovation is to get quotes from local builders, and ask for a written quote with a breakdown of materials and labour. Your choice of materials, finishes and accessories can make a big difference to the overall cost.
New home
New home builders tend to specialise in this type of job, and could also be a volume builder with a house and land package. House and land packages are where you get to choose slight variations on a standard house design. A custom new home is where you work with an architect to develop the plans and design, and take these for builders to tender on. This is the best to get all the features you want in a home, though you have to budget for this privilege.
General building work
A licensed builder can carry out general building work, including bathroom, kitchen or laundry renovations, home extensions and loft conversions - just to name a few. They’ll also employ contractors who work for him either permanently or on a project basis. It is illegal for anyone who is unlicensed to carry out any structural building works, due to the health and safety implications. It is easy to check the status of a builder’s qualifications and licence using their name, business name or licence number.
Commercial builders
Commercial builders focus on non-domestic projects, like constructing retail and industrial facilities, or large apartment complexes. refurbishment and fit-out. They will often manage the project, including all the sub-contractors working on the job. Commercial builders may also refit and renovate existing commercial spaces, including the fitout and installation of services to the building.
Granny flats
Granny flats are a great way to add some living space on your property, provided you have the space. These can be used for housing a loved one or used to generate income as a rental property.
Some builders specialise in building granny flats, which come in a variety of sizes, including 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedrooms. Some councils offer fast-track approvals for granny flats if they do not impact the main dwelling - and are called a complying development.
Home extensions
Home extensions are a popular solution for adding more space to an existing home, and a licensed builder is required for this type of project. Common home extensions include remodelling the rear of an existing house, to extending an attic into a loft conversion.
You are likely to need planning approval for this job, which involves submitting a Development Application (DA) to your local council. This details all aspects of your project and can take anywhere from a few weeks to many months, depending on where you live.
House & land packages
House and land packages are cookie cutter homes normally in new suburbs or on greenfield sites where new homes are built by volume builders. You generally get to choose from a number of standard home designs, and then get to customise some of the fittings and fixtures which are arranged in packages that vary in price. The benefit of a house and land package is that they are often cheaper than buying an existing house, and you get to move into a brand new home.
Project management
Builders often spend a lot of time project managing your job, rather than actually working on-site with their hands. Some smaller builders will work ‘on the tools’, though many choose to manage ‘subbies’ or subcontractors who do the actual work. Their role is to project manage the build, coordinating all the various trades, ordering materials and ensuring the works are going according to the designs/plans. They are also the main point of contact with you - the client, as well as the architect and local council.
LET DEIANABUILD YOUR DREAM HOME GUARANTEED
Anna
“Sergio from Deianabuild was our main principal builder for our 7 month renovation project. Our extensive renovation which included a double sized garage, alfresco area, extensive concrete across the property and a new Colorbond roof was not an easy task. We can honestly say that he did a fantastic job managing our project. He was punctual and very hands on. We loved how he was professional, keeping our site clean and has a sound knowledge of the industry. He respectfully offered up suggestions but ultimately worked with us to bring our visions to life. We would have no hesitation in recommending Sergio for any complex renovations.“

Joan was happy with their Builders job
“I recently renovated a small section of my kitchen with a new IKEA benchtop, sink, taps and cupboards. Frank from Advantage Builders completed this relatively small job with as much care and concern as if it was a much bigger job. Frank always consulted with me regarding each aspect of the job in a way that conveyed he took the job very seriously and genuinely wanted the outcome to be top notch - and it was!. Frank had to match in the new kitchen section with an old 1960s section - along the way unfortunately some of the old tiling had to be removed, but Frank sourced some new tiles that fitted in to replace the old ones - and it worked really well. The quality of Franks work is high and I was so happy with what he had done, he did some other long overdue building jobs while he was...“
