Builder Canberra offers customized building solutions for people who want homes that are special, practical, and well-designed. We focus on custom homes throughout the ACT that meet the specific needs, lifestyles, and long-term plans of homeowners. With many years of experience in understanding Canberra’s local rules, site details, and weather, our team builds homes that combine good craftsmanship with smart design.
Our custom building services in Canberra include:
We create homes inspired by architecture from the start. Whether it’s a modern family home in Gungahlin or a green single-storey retreat in Tuggeranong, each home is specially designed for the people living in it.
For homeowners who love where they live but want something new, we provide full knockdown and rebuild services. This is a popular choice in older areas of Canberra, like Deakin, Yarralumla, and Griffith, where old homes are taken down and new, modern homes replace them.
We add on to current homes to make more room and improve how they work. This could mean building a second floor, making a kitchen bigger, or fixing a bathroom. Such projects happen often in inner-north areas like Ainslie and Braddon.
For people or families wanting to increase land value, we build dual occupancy homes. This includes duplexes and granny flats, following local zoning rules.

We build custom homes across all districts in Canberra, including Inner North, Inner South, Belconnen, Woden Valley, Tuggeranong, Gungahlin, and surrounding areas like Googong and Queanbeyan.
Budgets vary based on size, complexity, and finishes. We provide detailed, fixed-price quotes after initial consultation and site assessment to ensure clarity and transparency.

Yes. We provide full knockdown and rebuild services, including demolition coordination, council approvals, and rebuilding with a brand-new custom design.
Each custom build in Canberra has a clear and organized process:
We start by understanding what the client wants, their budget, and the type of land. Canberra’s varied land, from sloped areas in Forde to narrow plots in Kingston, needs careful planning from the start.
We work with architects and designers to create floorplans and building designs that fit the client’s way of living. We also consider the land’s direction, slope, and how to get to it.
Navigating the rules of ACT Planning and Land Authority (ACTPLA) is important. We take care of all Development Applications (DA), Building Approvals (BA), and follow the energy rules like the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS).
Clients can pick from a select list of materials that are good for Canberra’s changing seasons. This includes brick, weatherboard, Colorbond roofing, and windows designed to help with temperature control.
A clear contract lists timelines, what is included, and the budget. We keep the costs clear. This helps stop extra costs or unexpected changes.
Our licensed builders and project managers handle every part of the project. They keep quality high by checking regularly. We share updates every week, so you know what is happening.
Final walkthroughs check the work and finishes. We give warranty protection against problems. We are here to help during the maintenance time.
