    I thoroughly recommend De Art Developments. Having recently completed a duplex development project, I found Nick and the team to be highly organised, professional and helpful. Nick's attention to quality and detail was excellent - all visitors to my completed townhouses have commented on the exceptional quality and workmanship. Above all Nick's communication was incredible, from start to finish (and beyond) - constantly keeping me updated on progress and patiently explaining the building jargon to this newbie. I would work with them again without hesitation.

    As a photographer working closely with builders and designers across the construction industry, I get to see many builds and quality workmanship up close and in detail. DeArt consistently delivers a level of workmanship that stands out even after years in the industry. The precision, material quality and overall execution reflect a genuine commitment to craftsmanship, and it shows the second you walk into a DeArt home. Nick is a great communicator, clear, responsive and solution focused, which makes collaboration smooth from start to finish. He takes real pride in the process and goes above and beyond to ensure the final result is something the entire project team can stand behind. Easy to work with, highly professional and deeply invested in quality. I would confidently recommend DeArt for any residential build.

    We built with Nick and his team at De Art Developments, we loved working with him. No variations, an on time project, great communication and most importantly a beautiful finished product.

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.
