Custom designed homes, built for the block they sit on
Every home we build is drawn for one block and one family, whether you come to us with a finished set of architectural drawings, a sketch on the back of an envelope, or nothing but a block and an idea.
Most of our new home clients start in one of three places: a vacant block, a knockdown rebuild on a house they already own, or a newly subdivided lot. From there the block does most of the talking. On the Beaches that usually means slope, sandstone, sand, salt air and a bushfire rating. We work out what the site will and won't allow before anyone gets attached to a floorplan, because that's the part that decides what your home can be.
What's in a Style Construction build
-
Site preparation
Survey, geotech, demolition where there's something to remove, excavation, retaining, drainage, and the temporary services and fencing that let a site actually run.
-
Footings and slab
Piers, footings and slab engineered to your soil classification. On the sloping and sandstone blocks we get here, this is where a build is won or lost, so we don't rush it.
-
Frame, roof and lock-up
Frame, trusses, roof, windows, doors and external cladding, built to the wind rating your site is assessed at.
-
Services rough-in
Electrical, plumbing, gas, data and any solar or battery provision, walked through with you on site before the walls close up.
-
Fit-out, joinery and finishes
Linings, kitchen and bathroom joinery, tiling, flooring, painting, fixtures and fittings, with your selections locked in before we start.
-
External works and handover
Driveway, paths, fencing, landscaping to your approval conditions, then a defects walk-through and your handover documents, warranties and manuals.
Our build process
Once approvals are through and the contract is signed, a new home runs through six stages. You'll always know which one you're in.
Step 1 - Siteworks
Fencing, services, demolition if there's something to remove, then excavation, retaining and drainage. The block stops being a block and starts being a site.
Step 2 - Footings and slab
Piers, footings and slab poured to the engineer's design, then inspected before anything goes on top of them.
Step 3 - Frame
Frame and trusses up, roof on. This is the week it suddenly looks like a house, and the first time you can walk your own floorplan.
Step 4 - Lock-up
Windows, external doors, cladding, roof plumbing and waterproofing. Once it's watertight, the inside work runs regardless of weather.
Step 5 - Fit-out
Linings, joinery, tiling, flooring, cabinetry, painting and fixtures. The longest stage, and the one with the most trades through the door.
Step 6 - Handover
Final connections, external works, certifier sign-off and occupation certificate, a defects walk-through with you, then keys.
Why people build new with us
-
We build the awkward blocks
Steep, narrow, battle-axe, sandstone, salt-exposed. The sites that put other builders off are the ones we've spent 27 years learning.
-
We talk to your architect, not around them
Bring your own designer and we'll work to their drawings and sit in their meetings. Don't have one, and we'll draw it with our own team.
-
Site knowledge instead of guesswork
We've built through the council's controls, the coastal corrosion zones and the bushfire-prone land long enough to know what a block is likely to need before the reports come back.
-
A small number of homes at a time
We don't run more new builds than we can be on. If you ring and ask what happened on your site today, someone can tell you.

What our clients say
Where we build - Northern Beaches, North Shore to the Eastern Suburbs
Vacant land is rare on the Beaches, so most new homes here start as a knockdown rebuild or a subdivided lot. We work the whole peninsula and across to the Eastern Suburbs. If you’re unsure if we work in your area, call us for a chat.

FAQs
-
Most of the Beaches is on a slope, so yes. What changes is what sits under the house: piers, a suspended slab, retaining, or a split-level design that steps down the fall instead of cutting it flat. We survey and get a geotech report in early, because the slope decides the footings.
-
An assessment gives the block a BAL rating, and that rating sets what your windows, decks, screens, eaves and cladding are built from under AS 3959. It isn't a reason to walk away from a block, but it has to be known at design stage rather than after.
-
Salt doesn't care how good the build is, it cares what you built it from. Near the water we specify to the site's corrosion category: marine grade fixings, the right roof sheeting and gutters, stainless or coated hardware. Exposed sites also get a wind rating, which changes tie-downs and glazing.
-
Yes, and plenty of our clients do. We work to their drawings, sit in their meetings, and flag anything that will be a problem to build before it becomes one on site. No architect, and we can draw it with our own team.
-
No, that's part of the job. We handle the demolition licence, service disconnections, asbestos assessment and removal where an older place needs it, and clearing the site. From there it's the same crew either way.
-
Every new home in NSW needs a BASIX certificate before lodgement. It commits you to specific insulation, glazing, hot water and fixtures, and those commitments get checked at completion. We design them in rather than bolting them on at the end.
-
Not once the old house comes down. Most knockdown rebuild clients rent nearby or stay with family, and it's worth sorting early, because the timing lines up with demolition rather than approval. Building on a block you don't live on, you can stay put until handover.
