    We have used Black Bear Projects for a number of small to medium sized commercial builds. Delivering a project on time and on budget is extremely important to us and Black Bear have gone above and beyond every time we work with them. We can not speak highly enough of there ability to deliver just about any project in the agreed timeframe, to a high level of finish and at a competitive price and would recommend them to anyone considering a commercial or residential project in the future.

    Dave, Sam and all the team at Black Bear Projects were an absolute pleasure to work with for our home renovation. Being an old Victorian Cottage we had to be certain to use a builder with knowledge and experience to ensure the integrity of the old part of the home was respected. From the very first meeting what stood out to me most was their open and honest communication. I was always asked what I wanted and everything was listened to and encouraged. Throughout the whole process of planning, designing, demolition, build and beyond their communication was what became the most important aspect in the relationship and still to this day they are checking in that we are loving everything about our home, and we are. Dave and Sam always managed the site with care and professionalism. Always checking the quality of the work and ensuring we received a home that was nothing less than perfect. The project finished ahead of schedule and on budget with no surprises. We have been back living in the home for almost 6 months now and everyday we love and appreciate what they have built for us.

    🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Black Bear Projects 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 After experiencing a well known builder go through liquidation and being very afraid to trust another builder to complete our project, our apprehension and fears were alleviated at the very first meeting with Dave & Sam. Dave & Sam had an honest and practical approach built on knowledge, which reassured-us that they could bring our new project to life. The Black Bear Projects team as a whole were amazing, they turned up on time and had experienced workmanship across all areas - even seen when teaching their apprentice Jade. Every part of the build was a team approach, we felt included and we also appreciated their guidance and knowledge along the way. Throughout the project the communication was exceptional, the site was always kept clean and the project was finished on time. The quality that Black Bear Projects delivered were outstanding, the finer details were beyond what we were expecting. We have recommended Black Bear Projects to friends and would highly recommend these skilled and most importantly trustworthy builders to anyone wanting to feel included, supported and ultimately have a high quality finish to their project. We trust them so much, we’re getting them back next year 🙌 can’t wait to work with them again. Thank you to the whole Black Bear Projects team - We really appreciate everything you have done for us 🍾🥂Angelo & Suzie

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.
