Want to Build Your Dream with a Custom Home Builder in Wollongong?
Made that decision?!
The kids are growing up so fast before your eyes and you want to get this process started straight away so you can enjoy the years of your family growing up together in your dream home … time does race.
It’s a very exciting journey to embark on and the biggest question is … what do I need to do and have to get this vision rolling?
First things first – you need to engage a design and construct building company. There is a lot to do before the whole build process starts.
Our Feasibility Package is an early planning service for your new home. We start with your ideas, your site and your budget before you move into full design.
The aim at this stage is to connect the home you want with the practical demands of building it. Site conditions, design choices and budget need to be considered together.
As a custom home builder in Wollongong, we bring a builder’s perspective to those early conversations. Your project’s written scope sets out the planning work we agree with you.
Beware: Architectural Plans Need to Be Tested Against the Budget
Think of this: if you engage an architect independently, their sole object is to design whatever you want. They are not aware of the true costs of their design, and to be honest, that’s not what they are engaged to do.
Bringing the builder into the conversation early helps connect design decisions with construction considerations. The design team and builder each contribute a different perspective to the project.
A useful planning discussion focuses on your priorities: the spaces you need, the site you have and the budget you are working with.
Design development, site investigations and approvals are distinct parts of preparing to build. Their timing and responsibilities depend on the project.
With your goals and practical constraints in view, you can decide how to move forward with design.
