QUALITY CUSTOM HOME BUILDERS IN VIC


Many home builders focus on home quantity; they build multiple durable homes, but they feel impersonal and feature nothing special for the homeowner. When we build a home, we focus on quality first, not quantity. Every aspect of the home is taken into consideration so that every homeowner is satisfied.

WE BUILD A VARIETY OF HOME TYPES


How do you want your perfect home to be? We can build you anything that you may desire, from the Hampton style house and free-standing estates to suburban cottage-feeling homes and city terraces. We can work with anything, regardless of the size of the project that you have in mind.

Our Building Process

1. Initial Inquiry – Free of Charge


The initial inquiry entails a visit to the site, where we determine the initial average costs and whether the project that you have in mind is feasible or not. You will discuss with our sales managers, going through a couple of aspects such as your budget and your vision. Bear in mind that before the initial inquiry, you must make sure that you have considered the following:

  • Any prior plans and whether they were Council-approved or not.
  • The type of house that you want, in case you don’t have any pre-approved plans yet (whether you want to go for single or double story).
  • Any features that you wish for your new home to have (for example, a certain number of bedrooms or a certain type of room).
  • The home style (traditional or modern, for instance).
  • When you want to start building or to move in.
  • Your current finances and whether you have the budget or not
  • Is your finance in place?

 

2. Initial Designing Phase

 

Do you want to go past the initial inquiry and start working on your project with the Tekton Building Group? If you do so, at this point you will be required to pay an initial fee. In this phase, we will survey the building site in more detail and start by designing your dream home. We will provide a fixed price quote, depending on your specifications.

 

3. Fixed Price Quotation


Once you have signed off on the quote, you will be required to pay one more design fee. Our engineers will begin working on your home improvements, and we will also make sure that your paperwork (the DA and CDC) is in order. At this point, the custom details such as tiles, colours or tapware will also be discussed.

 

4. Obtaining Council and Planning Approval


Once your DA (Development Application) and CDC (Complying Development Certification) have been approved, you will have to sign the NSW (Housing Industry Association) contract and pay the fee. You also need your Financial Institution Authority at this point.

 

5. Constructing the House


Once the contract has been signed and all the approvals are in order, we will begin working on your home construction. When you knock down and rebuild your home, the constructions will begin the moment your home is demolished. On the other hand, if the house is made from scratch, the construction will be started in 14 days after signing the contract.

 

6. Completing and Handing Over the House


When the house construction has reached an end, you will be contacted by our company supervisor for an appointment. Here, your house will receive its final inspection before it is given to you. You will have to make your final payments, including any potential provisional costs that appeared throughout the construction. Once that is done, the key will be in your hands.

 

7. Maintenance and Warranty


Our company features a 3-month warranty for any initial defects, along with a 6-year warranty for any other major defects that can occur over time. Every other defect will receive a 2-year warranty.
