 “We really enjoyed working with Matt and Janine and the team at You Build to create our new home. We had a specific brief we wanted to follow and Matt and Janine worked closely with us to achieve our dream home. We couldn't be happier with the outcome.

Matt and Janine and the team at You Build were great to work with. We felt listened to and nothing was too hard to do. We really appreciated their guidance on what would work and what might not. Although the choice was always ultimately ours, their skill in house design both interior and exterior really made the process easy.

We love our new home in Nelson! Working with You Build we were able to design and build the home we have always wanted.”

J & G - HOMEOWNERS

Design

We start by sitting down with you to discuss your dreams, budget, and needs. This conversation helps us understand your vision and priorities, and we use this information to brief an Architect who will begin crafting a custom design for your new home.

Your Dream Home Takes Shape

Our concept design drawings bring your vision to life, showing you exactly how your new home will look and fit perfectly on your site. We work with you to refine the design, making any necessary adjustments until we achieve a beautiful and accurate representation of your dream home.

Accurate Pricing and Scheduling

Once you've finalized your design concept drawings, we'll obtain a detailed estimated construction cost. Within a few weeks, we'll present you with a comprehensive Price and Schedule outline, clearly outlining what's included and excluded. If the price aligns with your budget, you can proceed with confidence. If it exceeds your budget, we can make adjustments to the plans at this early stage, ensuring you stay within your means and avoid unnecessary expenses.

Securing Your Project with a Master Builders Contract

Once you've accepted the quote, we'll provide a comprehensive Master Builders Contract for your review and signature. Upon signing, a contract deposit will be invoiced, and we'll promptly commence the working drawings for submission to Council. Please note that the working drawings typically take six weeks to complete, but if additional engineering input is required, this may extend the timeline.

After finalising and submitting your plans to Council for consent, we conduct a thorough quantity survey to provide you with an exact cost breakdown and a Master Builders Contract. This ensures transparency and clarity on your project's expenses. Please note that the Council consent process typically takes an additional 20 working days.

Construction Commencement and Project Management

Once your plans have received Council approval and building consent, construction begins. Our seasoned Project Manager will oversee the entire process, ensuring a seamless and successful experience for all parties involved - you, the Architect, our team, and other project stakeholders. We prioritise open communication throughout the project, aiming for a stress-free and enjoyable experience for you.
