Custom home construction involves many complex variables. Making informed decisions on developing a suitable design, selecting the right materials and keeping on budget can be challenging for most clients. Sunshine Coast Home Builders can help you with every stage of the building process, including hiring the right subcontractors and trades. We can manage your custom home project from start to finish.

New Home Construction

Sunshine Coast Home Builders is experienced in working on custom home projects of various types and sizes. Homes have become more complex over the years and building code requirements more stringent. This has affected the timeframe it takes to obtain building permits in the Sunshine Coast area.

Many of our customers have found that it is helpful to understand the building process before construction begins. Sunshine Coast Home Builders gives you realistic expectations and can help you make informed decisions about what is involved in construction in the following areas:

  • Site specific design and material selection
  • Budget preparation
  • Building permits and approvals
  • Site preparation and improvement
  • Installation of foundations
  • Completing the basic structure of the home
  • Finishing the interior of the home

The cost to complete your home to occupancy will be dependent on the size, location and complexity of the project. The time taken, availability and quality of trades-people used will affect the labor component. The reality is that it is more important to consider the value of work being done than simply choosing trades based on a low hourly rate.

Choosing the right people can save on a lot of labor cost and fixing problems later on. Generally the use of higher quality material gives you a better finished result, less waste and lower maintenance as well as substantial cost savings during construction. Sunshine Coast Home Builders uses best construction practices in all of their projects.


Home Additions

Sunshine Coast Home Builders uses up-to-date, energy-efficient design and construction practices that consider lifestyle needs and can increase the value of your property.

It is important to make sure that your addition is structurally sound, meets your living requirements and looks like an integral part of the existing home. You may find that you will need to repair any existing structural problems and upgrade services in the process. This will prolong the life of your home and make the addition look and feel better.

When planning a new home addition, you should be aware that your existing house is much more than just four walls and a roof. It is an interactive system made up of many components including the basic structure, heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment as well as the external environment. Each component influences the performance of the entire system and some additions may require structural changes.

Sunshine Coast Home Builders has the expertise and experience to bring your project to a successful outcome.


Home Renovations

A professional renovation makes your home more appealing, more efficient and more durable. Sunshine Coast Home Builders has the right kind of experience to make you comfortable that your project will be successful. We provide you with realistic estimates and perform the work to meet building code standards. We can also assist you to source experienced designers and prepare blueprints that will meet structural and permitting requirements.

Before renovating, it's important to assess the condition of your home to determine if there are any significant underlying problems that must be addressed before or during your planned renovation. You will need to consider:

  • Lifestyle requirements
  • Upgrades or replacement of key structural elements
  • Improvement of the look and feel of the home

Good up-front planning is crucial before you start work to keep costs under control and get the best result. A thorough inspection will help you to assess the condition of your home. Sunshine Coast Home Builders can arrange for a professional home inspection for you that assesses signs of deterioration and the possible causes.

Sunshine Coast Home Builders can then help you plan your project and make your home look better, last longer and be more comfortable.


Our Expertise

Most homeowners require external expertise to take their project from concept to completion. Technical advice and support are often required prior to and during construction. This is especially true if the nature of the property presents construction challenges.

No matter if you are building a new home, renovating an existing one or adding an extension, Sunshine Coast Home Builders has access to the building resources required for custom projects.

You get a much better finished result and more value in your home when you use the right materials and hire the right expertise. The cost to fix problems caused by the use of the wrong materials or poor installation can be substantial. Better quality materials and skilled people will pay for themselves during the construction process because building goes faster with fewer problems and less waste.

Critical areas where homeowners need external expertise usually include:

  • Obtaining permits and approvals
  • Design and material selection
  • Structural load bearing and other engineering requirements
  • Assembling the right human resources
  • Constructing the home to meet building code standards
  • Controlling and managing the project

As registered builders with the BC Builder Network we have full access to technical experts including designers, drafts-people, engineers and specialty trades. We can also help with choosing materials that perform well in the Sunshine Coast area.

Working with Sunshine Coast Home Builders you can be confident that your project will come in on time and on budget.


Design and Construction Options

The design you choose will determine what kind of construction method needs to be used to build the home. More complex structures, such as post and beam or timber-frame homes, use different structural techniques to support the roof and floors. They may also require different foundation load bearing points.

These structures have the advantage of being able to incorporate open plan living, vaulted ceilings and large expanses of glass to maximize the use of natural light. Although they are a little more costly to build than conventional homes, they generally have a much higher appraised value. Sunshine Coast Home Builders can help you determine the right kind of design for your budget.

Your choices of design, materials and construction method also play a major role in the look and feel of the finished home. Building different types of homes takes special skill sets. Sunshine Coast Home Builders is capable of building a wide variety of custom homes and uses premium quality building materials to give you a better-finished result.
