    We engaged Browns the Building Professionals in early 2023 to discuss removing and replacing our existing verandah and also replacing our front footpath. I found Scot honest and transparent from the get go. Scot guided us through the process of obtaining the building permit (surveyor, engineer, draftsman) and provided us with a realistic quote to reflect the work required to achieve our goal. We begun works at the start of 2024 and everything we set out to do has been completed in a professional and timely manner. I cant stress enough (as a tradesman myself) the importance of honesty and transparency throughout a project such as this. I have appreciated Scot's upfront approach and ensuring we were well informed of the progress of our project. Scot offers quality workmanship and I am thoroughly satisfied with the end result. We will be using Scot for any future renovation works and also recommending him to friends and family. Thanks again Scot! *See before and after photos below. Apologies for the poor quality of photos - Doesn't do it justice!*

    Scot recently completed a renovation of our ensuite and bathroom. What a pleasure it was to deal with this excellent company. Scot is a extremely competent tradesman and his regular sub -contractors are the same. I would not hesitate to recommend Browns the Building Professionals to any body requiring building or renovation work.

    Scot has completed a number of building projects at my school and I can't speak highly enough of him. His communication, attention to detail and worksmanship are fantastic!

    Scot Brown is a true professional and so are the tradesman that work with him. Timeline for our renovation of a bathroom was spot on and he even provided an itinerary of the daily works for each week. Scot has a keen eye for detail and goes above and beyond what you would normally expect from a builder. Near enough is not good enough for Scot. We are very grateful for what he was able to achieve. He will be employed for any future renovations at our home. Needless to say we highly recommend Browns the Building Professionals. Thanks to Scot and his wonderful team. With thanks from Linda and Domenic

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.
