    I have had the absolute pleasure of dealing with James from Frankie homes and I must say, is truly a wealth of knowledge and professionalism. He is clear with what to expect from the beginning and extremely supportive throughout the whole build process. Have dealt with some previous builders in the past and I felt just like a number being passed on from person to person. I was able to deal with James the entire time so I can truly say his service is second to none. The quality of my home exceeded my expectations and I’m super happy! Would definitely recommend Frankie homes!

    I couldn’t be happier with the build from James at Frankie Homes. From the very beginning, everything was clearly laid out with upfront costs. No surprises, no hidden extras, just honest pricing. That alone gave us a lot of confidence going into the project. The attention to detail throughout the entire build was outstanding. James takes real pride in his work, and it shows in the finished product. Communication was great, the quality is excellent, and the whole process felt smooth and well managed unlike the experience many of our friends and family have had with other builders. If you’re looking for a builder who delivers on what he promises and genuinely cares about the end result, I highly recommend James and the team at Frankie Homes. You won't regret using them!!

    From start to finish, working with Frankie Homes was a seamless and positive experience. The entire process was well-planned, organized, and stress-free. Dipkesh and James ensured everything stayed on schedule and handled the entire build with professionalism. Every detail of our home reflects care and precision, showcasing the pride they take in their work. I would happily work with them again in the future and I would highly recommend Frankie Homes to anyone looking to build a home without the usual headaches 🙂

    We recently built our first investment property with Frankie Homes here in Melbourne, and the experience with James and Dipkesh was nothing short of outstanding. From start to finish, their level of care, attention to detail, flexibility, and genuine understanding of what we wanted was on another level. They’re not your typical volume builder — you can really tell they’re passionate about homes and committed to delivering a high-quality product without taking shortcuts. We’ve previously built with a well-known volume builder, and the difference in quality and finishing is honestly unbelievable. With Frankie Homes, everything feels thoughtfully done and built to last. What impressed us even more was that despite their high standards and no-compromise approach, they delivered our home in around 14 weeks. Couldn’t recommend James, Dipkesh, and the Frankie Homes team highly enough!

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.
