    We have recently moved into our new home in Elmore, built by the team at BLJ Building. We couldn't be happier with the results. Our new individual, accessible, forever home is everything we imagined and more. We had some very specific needs and requests for Brendan and the team, given that we needed a fully wheelchair accessible home. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Dom and the boys on site, and they were always double checking that everything was as we wanted and needed it to be, from the way a door swung to the height of accessible benches, vanities, sinks etc. to the fitting of some of our individual, hand made light fittings and doors just to name a few. There were some minor adjustments from the plans, and the team were always happy to have us on site, to check on options, or make small adjustments. This was a once in a lifetime project for us, and Brendan was able to help us work through decisions and choices that we were not previously considered. The quality of finishes and attention to detail are definitely noticed by anyone that visits us in our new home. We would have no hesitation in recommending Brendan and the team to anyone considering a bespoke, one-off new home or renovation.

    We are so happy with the service we received from Brendan and his team in building our new home. From our first contact and throughout the build, Brendan was straight talking and easy to work with. During the build, we were consistently impressed with the high standards of workmanship from both the BLJ boys (credits to Dom) and also the trades. They truly cared about every little detail. We would recommend Brendan and his amazing team without any hesitation!

    We had a great experience building our new dream home with BLJ Building, From the initial consultation to our beautifully finished family home Brendan was helpful, very approachable, organised and extremely easy to work with. Brendan, his employees and tradesman were professional, friendly, highly skilled and stood behind their workmanship. The quality of the finishes are outstanding. We are so pleased to say that the build was done efficiently, on time and totally stress free. We love, that the end result, is a completely custom built house with all of our personal taste and needs incorporated. I have no hesitation in recommending BLJ 😊

    Our experience building with Brendan was overwhelmingly positive. As first time renovators, we had heard of many bad experiences from others but from our first contact with Brendan he was very easy going and helpful. He was able to give us a detailed quote so we had an accurate idea of costs and there were no unexpected surprises. He was easy to contact and happily answered our many questions throughout the build. Brendan was accommodating to some changes we wanted to make once things had started and all of his team and the various trades we dealt with were all professional and approachable. We love our new house and appreciate all of Brendan's help along the way and his hard work. The whole process was easy and stress free for us and we would definitely recommend BLJ to others and use them again in the future.

    We approached BLJ Builders to build a customed designed Victorian Gabled Style Period Home, based on our own design, at LOCHINVAR, Hewlett's Road, Lockwood South. Brendan made us very welcome and straight away his experience in the Building trade guided us in making the decision to let him build our forever Home without any hesitation whatsoever. Just a very genuine, friendly and honest person, with excellent building knowledge and excellent communication skills. Every stage we were consulted and any ideas we wanted to alter or suggest was no issue, and we could clearly see the passion and pride and sheer craftsmanship right throughout the massive project. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better Builder and we are so thankful we employed Brendan and his team. Special thanks to Lane. It was a such a pleasure dealing with BLJ Builders and are so grateful indeed to see the final completion of the house. Brendan and his team should be proud to see a unique home built and very satisfied owners as a result. Highly recommended with no hesitation whatsoever. Absolutely thrilled to have such a wonderful new home built with such quality material and by thorough Builders. Thanks also to Cass.

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.
