    We recently built with JEM Homes and it was a wonderful experience. James and the team provide a clear and seamless process from start to finish. From first consultation, James was transparent and professional, providing invaluable insight and knowledge to our initial plans and selections moving forward. He and the team are very open with communication, responsive, and transparent throughout the entire process; and we were giving regular updates. Issues that do arise - albeit minor - were addressed promptly and professionally. We would certainly recommend JEM Homes.

    Could not have asked for anything better working with James and Jem Homes. Communication throughout our build both over the phone and on site was made very easy by James. James’ attention to us as the client and his attention to detail during the build is second to none. Nothing was too hard or out of the question, this made our entire build enjoyable. James worked through every decision with us and his quality trades are an asset to him. A builder who takes so much pride in their work is very rare and a brilliant find, thank you James and Jem Homes. Julia and Simon

    My wife and I worked with Jem homes in 2023 and the experience was a very positive one. James was responsive, professional and attentive to our needs. He explained the build process clearly and was a true asset in the design process reducing our total build cost by ~$100k. I would highly recommend James and the Jem team to anyone looking to build a custom home

    Having worked with James and his team over the past 3 years, I can honestly say their attention to detail and wealth of construction knowledge and experience are a true standout. Dealings with James the director and owner of the business from your initial pre-construction conversations to completion is a rare find, his professional approach and transparency means you can trust your home will be built without cutting any corners and be assured all aspects of the build have been thoroughly considered throughout the entire building process to achieve a great outcome. Great management, skillful trades and hands on supervision are key to building a great home. You can trust you will build an exceptional home with James and his Jem Homes team.

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.
Does Jem Homes have a verified ABN?
Yes. Jem Homes has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
