    As an architectural practice, we always seek out the best builders—those we can trust, collaborate with, and who can bring our vision to life for our clients. After a thorough tender process for the Beaumaris project, Durance Construction was selected, and it proved to be an outstanding decision. With over 20 years in the industry, we can confidently say that Durance Construction is the most professional building company we have worked with. Their craftsmanship is exceptional, their attention to detail unmatched, and their commitment to quality evident in every stage of the build. Throughout the two-year project, they were transparent, communicative, and proactive—asking the right questions, offering thoughtful solutions, and working seamlessly with our detailed designs. We would wholeheartedly recommend Durance Construction to any of our clients and look forward to collaborating with them again.

    As an aluminium windows and doors supplier, We first started working with Durance Construction 6 years ago. From day one, James, Richard and their team stood out for their professionalism and the pride they take in their work. Every site we’ve been on has been well organised, with clear communication that makes our job easier and ensures the best result for the client. It’s rare to find a builder who is both easy to work with and uncompromising on quality, but Durance Construction has consistently delivered on both. We’re proud to be one of their long-term partners and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

    I’ve had the pleasure of working with Durance Constructions for over three years, and the experience has always been excellent. Their team – from carpenters to other trades – is professional, friendly, and well-organised. Riched and James are always quick to attend site whenever needed, and we’ve never had any issues with payments. Their commitment to quality and the attention to detail they bring to every project are outstanding. I’m happy to recommend Durance Constructions to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled construction team.

    I’ve had the pleasure of working with Durance Constructions, the wonderful father and son team, Richard and James on a recently completed Beaumaris project. I can’t speak highly enough of them. They are an absolute delight to work with; accommodating, considerate, and always willing to discuss options to find the best solution. Nothing is ever too hard or too much trouble. Their entire team is respectful, professional, and genuinely lovely to have on site. The quality of their work and the positive attitude they bring to each project makes them a dream collaboration partner. I’m very much looking forward to working with them on many more projects in the future! Melissa Balzan Melissa Balzan Design

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.
