    We engaged with Damian a few years ago for a new build, and to say he’s been supportive is an understatement. At each stage of the building process, he was (and still remains) nothing but a genuine advocate for not only us - but all of his clients. The thoughtfulness and tangible advice that Damian has to offer is truely worth more than money can buy. Damian’s personal, yet professional nature really sets him apart from others in his position. As building a home goes, there are many difficult decisions, hiccups, and sleepless nights. However having Damian on our side really alleviated many stresses we had. He got us in touch with the best in the biz and we couldn’t be happier with the final result. The bottom line - Damian’s continued and unwavering support has made our building journey a positive one. We would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat.

    We engaged this company to build our home and can honestly say it was an amazing journey. Damian made the entire process stress free and seamless. His communication skills as top notch and we always knew what was happening at all times with the project. Highly recommend them to anybody who is building or looking at renovating.

    Damo is simply the best in the biz! From the very first time I contacted companies to enquire, I knew Damo was the one to go with - his level of professionalism, detail and responsiveness to all my questions and queries were second to none. He never hesitated to go above and beyond and make every step of the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Great at what he does and a ripper of a human, as well. All the stars.

    We first hired Damo from Geelong Custom Builders to organise/oversee extension works on our home. Once complete, we later rehired him to assist in preparing our home for sale, and absolutely cannot recommend him highly enough. From initial planning, drafting, permits, to now going on the market two years later, Damo has been (and still is) consistent in timely communication with us and tradespeople. His superior people and negotiation skills smoothed waters between people, preventing potential problems from escalating to calamities, promoting our interests all the way. Damo regularly checked in with us to see if we needed anything and ensure all was well, beyond the scope of our initial agreement with him, and beyond our expectations. Overall, Damo was cheery and supportive - a very reassuring presence throughout the process, and we’re very happy to provide a recommendation for his services. Don’t build without him..!

    We met Damo 6 months ago and have worked in with him on a few projects. From a builders point of view he makes it easier for clients to understand the process of building a home from the design stage all the way through to Hand over. Countless hours behind the scenes to make the process run as smoothly as possible for the clients and builder.

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.
