Rural Home Builders WA

5 Tips to shed light on your rural build If you’ve finally decided to build the home of your dreams, you'll know that choosing the right location is key. While urban areas offer energy, culture and convenience, building your home in the country lets you soak up the fresh air and rural scenery each day.

Both locations are come with their own challenges, but as WA's country build specialist, we thought we'd share some tips to make building your country home as easy as possible.

1. Choose a Modular Home Modular homes are built almost completely off site and then are transported to your new home location where all the finishing touches are completed!

The cost of labour and machinery moving to and from a rural building site can quickly see the cost increase. If you choose a modular home design, the number of days these resources are required to be out in the country is limited, meaning a big cost saving for you. This makes the whole process quicker and also

means there will be fewer days that you are living alongside noisy construction, or paying rent elsewhere while your build is completed.

2. Don’t Skip on the Site Surveying To the un-trained eye, many lots appear to be ready for building.

Unfortunately, oftentimes this couldn’t be farther from the truth.

Even if your section appears to be straightforward and safe, completing a through site survey will make your rural build much easier, not to mention safer and a better investment.

To ensure your lot is ready to build on and the appropriate foundations are in order, reach out to our experienced building team. We will be happy to offer advice and accompany you in your site survey process to ensure the best result.

3. Design for the Landscape Nowadays, alfresco dining is the summer norm. Particularly as we become more savvy in designing homes with beautiful fluidity between the indoors and out.
