    We have been very impressed by the professionalism of Kookaburra and believe that they are a quality home builder. From the sales team to the selecton process, to our site supervisor, to all the workers on site, they have been wonderful to deal with. Special thanks goes to Jake and Dylan who made our own house plans a reality, to Brittney for her skill in making the selections process seamless, helping us through the process of selecting what we had envisioned and to Gavin, our site supervisor, who was very understanding and nothing was too hard for him to do or organize. Only one advice would be, better communication before the build starts. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Thanks to Kookaburra for their workmanship and attention to detail. We have a beautiful and stunning new home. Thanks Kookaburra. We would highly reccomend Kookaburra to anyone considering building. Merri and Manfred OAKBANK

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.
