    We had the pleasure of working with George and his team while McGarry Constructions completed renovations on our inner west home. The renovations included replacing all the flooring, windows (including two new beautiful 'period' timber windows that George designed and sourced himself), creating an open plan family room, replacing the old kitchen with a butlers pantry and new kitchen complete with an island, and painting front to rear. One of the things that impressed us the most, was George's project management skills. His attention to detail, not only during the course of the build stage, but at the initial planning stages ensured that the project ran on time and was completed within the timeframes agreed at the start of the project. George kept us informed throughout the whole build process and ensured that when decisions had to be made, he provided us with options and recommendations to allow us to make informed choices. The work completed was of a very high standard and we would have no hesitation in recommending George and his team.

    Our experience with McGarry Constructions was exceptionally good. George and his entire team are wonderful, always responsive, friendly, easy to work with and completely reliable. Our new deck is far better than I could have imagined, the workmanship and attention to detail means that we have a very fancy and fabulous outdoor space now! The team also did quite a lot of work inside, renovating our bathroom, reviving all our old sash windows, plus a skylight in our hall and lots of electrical work. If you are thinking of hiring George and the McGarry team, don't hesitate. Thanks George, we look forward to bringing you back on board for the next phase of work on our house!

George promptly responded to all our concerns as complex issues with the existing structure were resolved. We are very happy with the quality of work and finishing, and would recommend George and his team without reservation.

    McGarry Constructions renovated our front room and replaced our timber floors in our hallway at which time we had a 2 month old baby (2016). Their professional attitude, respect and daily communication made what was already a stressful time, seem effortless. Not to mention the areas where they were working, were spotless at the end of every day! 3 years on and we are embarking on a new project. I contacted George and he has been nothing short of amazing. His wealth of knowledge and advice as well as his general care and concern for his clients is why I will continue to work with George and highly recommend McGarry Constructions.

    George and his team did an extraordinary renovation of our house. We had major structural changes throughout, all work was done at a very professional level. George was very responsive with questions we had and would always call to make sure we were happy with everything moving forward. Our house is looking amazing now, I would highly recommend McGarry constructions for anyone looking for a small extension or a full rebuild throughout like us.

    George and his team delivered a major, structural renovation on our apartment. They delivered it to the highest standard with attention to the finest detail, bang on time. Even from the first consultation we knew we were dealing with the ideal builder. He took the time to work through our intentions and problem solve the tricky parts. He exhausted all possibilities before recommending the best solution. His extensive experience meant he was able to interpret the architectural drawings with clever and creative detailing. He was also willing to give us his considered opinion - which matters when there are so many decisions to make. Both the McGarry team and the trades they worked alongside were as passionate about their work as George was. They were Personable, hard working, and great at what they did, always thinking and re-thinking the problems at hand to make sure they were resolved in the best possible way. George kept a good schedule that was transparent and inclusive. He met us weekly onsite, which helped keep everyone on the same page and, ultimately, the build on schedule. A fun aspect of working with George was the social experience. He posted video walk throughs regularly, which meant we were able to literally watch our build come to life. We found ourselves hanging out to see his Instagram posts each morning, hoping to catch something juicy happening onsite. We would recommend McGarry Constructions without hesitation!

Frequently asked questions

How much do builders typically charge?
Builder costs vary widely depending on the job type and complexity. Minor repairs are generally much less than extensions, small builds or structural alterations that need foundations, framing or specialist input. Most quotes include a call‑out fee plus labour and materials, and the page shows live pricing to help you compare options.
Do builders charge call-out fees?
Call‑out fees are common and typically cover travel and an initial inspection or assessment. This fee is usually separate from hourly labour and materials, and after‑hours or weekend attendance often attracts higher rates. Ask whether a call‑out or minimum charge applies when requesting quotes.
Do builders need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Building work generally needs to be carried out by a licensed builder in every state and territory, and NSW builders are regulated by NSW Fair Trading. Builders should be able to provide their state builder/contractor licence number and show appropriate insurances and ABN/GST registration. In Victoria, domestic building insurance is required above a state threshold for certain contracts.
