One of our experienced Consultants and a Company Director will visit your land and provide an initial assessment of your project. Your Consultant will be looking at aspects such as slope, shape, available utilities and access to your block and will also be able to provide you with advice about the best home design to suit your block.
The most crucial step when looking to build a new home is knowing and understanding the ground on which your home will be built on. A Site Classification Report will ensure that your home is designed and built to stand the test of time.
Prior to demolition, please ensure sewer, water and power are disconnected. You will contract a third party to undertake the demolition of your home directly, as this is the most cost-effective option. We can arrange this process for you, however additional fees apply. Please speak with your Building Consultant about the best option for you. We are more than happy to recommend local companies and provide advice along the way.
Once demolition is complete, we’ll conduct additional engineering and site surveys. This is a vital step to ensure that the integrity of the land hasn’t changed during demolition, and that there is nothing lurking beyond the surface of your home. Our team will review the results of these tests and provide final estimated site costs and advise of any issues or changes required to the design of your home.
Once your land is completely vacant and ready to go, your home building journey can begin!

A knockdown rebuild involves completely demolishing your current house and building a brand new home in its place from scratch. At the end of the process, you’ll have a stunning home, complete with a stylish interior, better utilised space, and a space that best reflects what your family needs.
There are many benefits of doing a knockdown rebuild, including getting to stay in a location you love, while in a brand new home that best suits your family. Knockdown rebuilds generally cost less than renovating, and will increase the resale value of your property. By knocking down and rebuilding, you’ll avoid having to pay stamp duty, agent fees and general moving costs.
Yes, we have an array of home designs that fit lot widths from as narrow as 10m. If our set home designs aren’t exactly what you’re looking for, our team of professionals can completely customise a home design that best suits your family’s needs, and efficiently utilises your block of land.
Yes! Many of our clients are knockdown rebuilds, so you can rest assured you’re in good hands. Please note that we do not offer demolition services ourselves, however we can recommend great local demolition companies that can complete the works with great prices.
The average cost of the demolition of a knockdown rebuild varies from home to home. Visit your nearest display centre and speak with our New Home Consultant about a possible guide, or find a local demolition company and ask for a detailed cost.
