    We engaged Manners Building and Carpentry for a high-end, commercial bar build in a historic Barossa Valley building, and they exceeded our expectations at every stage. Brett’s detail-focused, accommodating approach and proactive input gave us confidence from the outset, and that standard never dropped. As a designer and operator of multiple bars, our expectations around finish are high, and the team’s attention to detail, willingness to ask questions and commitment to getting things right was exceptional. Every challenge was handled collaboratively, always aiming for the best outcome, not the easiest, especially with respect to the heritage of the building. We even managed to keep trading through the entire build process, they were always respectful, tidy and discreet. Despite a very tight pre-Christmas deadline, the project was delivered on time, on budget and exactly as promised. We couldn’t recommend Manners Building and Carpentry more highly. Professional, reliable and a pleasure to work with.

    I can highly recommend Brett and his team to anyone looking for a very good builder with excellent communication skills. I engaged him to complete a major renovation/home modification for a very difficult client of mine which he completed to a very high standard, to the exact detail required within the scope of works and plans. He delt with my client with compassion and patience while maintaining a very tight time frame for the works to be completed within. I would have no hesitation in engaging Manners Building to perform works for me in the future and have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

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.
