Construction budgets
Know the numberbefore you build.
Most budget blowouts are decided in design, long before a builder prices the job. We cost your home trade by trade from the drawings, so you can make changes while they're still cheap.

Questions
Before youcall us.
Why not just get quotes from builders?
A builder's quote tells you what that builder will charge, not what the home should cost. With an independent budget you can tell whether a quote is fair, spot items that are missing or underpriced, and compare builders on the same scope.
How is your role different from the builder's project manager?
The builder's project manager works for the builder. We work only for you: we check their claims and variations, inspect the work at each stage and make sure the contract is followed.
How do your fees work?
Budgets are a fixed fee, quoted once we've seen your drawings. Project management is quoted per project, based on the size of the build and the stages you need us for. Every fee is confirmed in writing before we start.
Can you help if I've already signed with a builder?
Yes. We can review your contract, check progress claims and variations, and carry out stage and handover inspections for the rest of the build.
Which areas do you cover?
Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, Moreton Bay, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast. Budgets can be prepared for anywhere in Queensland from drawings alone.
