    Ahrens Group, established in Australia in 1902, by Sir Johann Karl Wilhelm Ahrens, began as a blacksmith shop at Sheaoak Log, SA. Over more than a century, Ahrens has evolved from a modest company in rural South Australia into a large multinational corporation with a presence throughout Australia and internationally. Ahrens is renowned for providing comprehensive solutions in construction, steel fabrication, and infrastructure development. The company places a strong emphasis on quality and innovation, combining extensive experience with cutting-edge technology to meet the needs of clients in various industries. Sustainable development and a commitment to the community and environment are also core values of Ahrens. The group focuses not only on business growth but also on sustainable development, with numerous social and environmental programs in place to support communities and protect the environment. In 1956, sir Bob Ahrens joins the blacksmith business which sees three generations of the family working side-by-side. Bob is an entrepreneurial engineer and grows the business by extending its product range to include grain silos, field bins, rural sheds and stone and land rollers. In 1988, Sir Stefan Ahrens joins the family business as The Fourth generation family member, and In 2021, Ahrens becomes a fifth-generation family owned Australian company with Ellen Ahrens and Riley Ahrens joining the business.

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.
