BUILDING ON SLOPING BLOCK
Building on a sloping site can have its challenges, both in design and construction. However, designing a home that meets your needs but that also works with, and not against, the slope of the land on your property is something that our design team prides itself on.
As we are custom builders we can design and build a home on a sloping site. Whether it be split level or single storey/two storey combination, we can design and build it for you.
We provide an initial assessment of the site and, in consultation with you, formulate a design that works best on the site and for your needs.

1. Initial Meeting & Site Visit
The initial meeting allows us to fully understand your requirements prior to commencing the design of your new home. We will discuss your ideas, needs and budget goals. From this we will formulate a design that suits your block of land, your budget and that, most importantly, you are happy with.
If you have already purchased a block of land, we can visit the site and discuss the best design outcomes that are specific to your land. If you are looking for land, we can help you find a block that is suitable for you.
