    Choosing Leafe Designer Homes was the best decision that we ever made and we have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to our family and friends (or anyone that listens). We love the home that Ryan and his team built for us and are so incredibly proud of the end result. From our very first contact with Ryan and throughout the whole build process with his team nothing was ever too much trouble and we always felt well respected. Ryan is incredibly easy to talk to and was always wanting to ensure that we were consulted with every decision that had to be made. It truly was a pleasant experience from start to finish, and not once did we feel like just another client, so much so that we have told Ryan that we are happy for him to bring any future clients through our home to see first hand the exceptional build quality. Should we ever decide to leave this beautiful home and build again, without any hesitation, Leafe Designer Homes is the only company that we would ever build with.

    Leafe Designer Homes was incredibly supportive throughout the daunting process of building our first home. From the moment, we meet Ryan at our newly purchased lot, we were excited by the professionalism and the easy to understand advice Ryan was providing guiding us through the process of building our first house in Australia Ryan and his team made us part of the construction process from the beginning to the end with Ryan personally looking after our needs and providing us with a great customer service focused on our satisfaction. Building with Leafe Designer Homes was an absolute pleasure and nothing was ever too hard for them. The end result is exactly what we pictured and we couldn't be happier! Thank you.

    Blessing in disguise is how I would describe our build with Leafe Designer Homes. We were given Leafe Designer Homes as our builder as a result of our initial builder going into liquidation. My husband and I were very jaded at first as we had waited so long for our home to be built. Ryan soon put our fears to rest. His family owed company did top quality work and were great to work with. Very professional, and delivered a beautiful home for our family. We highly recommend this company.

    Ryan was recommended to me by another person in the construction industry and I will be forever grateful. From our first meeting on site I knew that Ryan would be the builder for my new home. His professionalism, easy manner and sense of humour made it an exciting and enjoyable experience. Being a very detailed build, Ryan took on the role of liaising with the architect and overcoming any obstacles that the design incurred. His suggestions were always taken on board and always with a positive outcome. His keen eye for detail made this a truely unique home in every sense and one that I am proud of. I can honestly say "I did not lose one night of sleep" during the whole process and never thought a build could go so smoothly and finish on time. I wish I could give Ryan more than five stars. I can thoroughly recommend Ryan Leafe Designer Homes and if anyone is considering building a new home I will be doing you a great favour as someone did for me.

    I am thrilled to recommend Leafe Designer Homes for any construction projects you may have. Following the unfortunate bankruptcy of our initial builder, Leafe Designer Homes was assigned by the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) to complete the construction of my house. From start to finish, Leafe Designer Homes displayed exemplary professionalism and dedication. They not only completed the project promptly but also delivered exceptional quality. The finishing in our house is impeccable, and their attention to detail is truly commendable. I am confident that Leafe Designer Homes will exceed the expectations of any future clients with their commitment to excellence and superior service. Without hesitation, I highly recommend them for their outstanding workmanship and reliability.

    Before we met Ryan from Leafe Designer Homes, we were at the point of giving up on our dream of building our new home. At this point we had owned our land for nearly 12 months and been messed around by many larger builders that would not listen to our brief and were more interested in what they wanted to build. Ryan was already building another home in our street so we had some visibility of his brand, when he reached out to us to see if he could help. His enthusiasm was contagious and we felt that maybe we might just get our home we had been looking for. Ryan was patient and understanding, nothing was too much trouble and he guided us to make the right decisions with our build, rather than dictate to us how it should be. The whole process through design to contract was transparent and everything was explained in non-builders terms. Once building commenced nothing was too much trouble to get site inspections and ask questions. All the Leafe team and subcontractors where accommodating, very friendly and easy to talk to and were always happy to explain something or answer questions. Even when we had an “oh no, that’s not what we thought it would look like” moment, the team were happy to down tools until it was clarified. The build was completed ahead of schedule (our wish was to be in before Christmas) with Ryan playing Santa and getting us into our new home and pool just in time for Christmas. We would without any hesitations, build with Leafe Designer Homes again and would recommend them to anyone seeking a quality build from a local builder.

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.
