The Process We Follow To Ensure Every Step Is Completed Perfectly So You Get The Exact Home You Want – On Schedule And Budget

With the rise in popularity of TV renovation shows, many people underestimate the complexity of extending and renovating their home. It’s amazing what two people appear to accomplish in one 60-minute episode. But what viewers rarely see is the teams of people working in the background to plan, supply, and execute the renovation. And instead, we see what the producers of the show want us to see: entertainment.

Extending or renovating a home is a serious project involving a significant investment of time and money. So you need to be sure your builder has the skills, experience, and systems to get the job done.

That’s right – the systems. Just like an experienced pilot follows strict systems to ensure a safe and successful flight, your builder must follow a proven process to ensure your home is finished to the correct  scope, on schedule and on budget.

Our Eight Step Process – Perfected Over 15 Years And Implemented Every Time - To Ensure A First-Class Experience And Outcome

01 - Enquiry

When you call, you’ll speak with Jake. He will ask you some general questions about your project including details about your site, design ideas, level of finish, and timeframes. To help you gain more clarity around these details, Jake will send you our Initial Enquiry Questionnaire.

Jake will also schedule a time for your Free Discovery Call with one of our Project Managers as well as Jake. If you have any questions, we will make a note of these for further exploration and to answer during your Discovery Call.

02 - Discovery Call

During this guided session, Jake will answer your questions and help you clarify your ideas, understand potential roadblocks, discuss budgets, and explain how we may be able to help you get the outcome you want. Whether you’re ready to build or still in the planning stage, this session will save you weeks of research and potential mistakes. And it’s completely free and without obligation.

03 - Site Visit

Jake will meet you onsite to further understand your vision and carry out a thorough assessment of your property. He will either validate your plans or suggest alternative design ideas and building methods that will suit your site better. He will explain the complete building process from approvals to handover. And he will provide a Preliminary Agreement with the option to secure a timeframe to begin your build.

04 - Preliminary Agreement And Concept Plan

A deposit will secure our services and engage our architect to produce a concept design. Depending on the project we may also engage other professional services to conduct a Site Survey and Soil Test. And we will carry out general scoping so we can provide you with an indicative budget.

05 - Refined Design

This is when you see your ideas fleshed out on paper. We’ll help you finalise your plan and select your finishes, fixtures, and fittings. We’ll arrange Working Drawings, Structural Engineering, Council Approvals, and Certification so we can give you a Final Quote. With the balance of the Preliminary Agreement paid, we will prepare a detailed Contract ready for building to begin.

06 - Agreement

Unlike other contracts that are short and scant on detail (leading to misunderstandings, conflicts, and disappointments down the track), our contract is long and detailed. But don’t worry, we’ll go through every line so you know exactly what you’re getting. Upon deposit, we will schedule your project including supplies and labour.

07 - Construction

This is where your plans start to become reality beginning with site preparation, demolition, structural building (frame), envelope (exterior of house), services (plumbing and electrical), internal finishes (walls, cabinets, tiles, etc.), and landscaping. With all work completed your services will be turned on (power and water) and we will conduct a comprehensive Quality Assurance Review to ensure everything is perfect.

08 - Handover

A final inspection and formal certification ensures everything has been completed according to the plan. Now it’s your turn to go over everything with a magnifying glass (literally). We will walk you through every aspect of your home to ensure you are completely delighted. If you notice anything (and I mean anything) that is not exactly as you expected, we will rectify it immediately. We will provide you with all manuals and documentation and give you the keys. We will provide you with an ongoing Inspection Sheet so you can jot down anything you notice as you’re living in your new home, and we will return after 3 months to check and correct anything that needs fine tuning. And we will be available to support you for as long as you live in your home.

Our Clients Talk About Our 8-Step Process And The Home It Gave Them

Our process has been perfected and proven over more than 15 years. It gives our clients the confidence that their home will be exactly as they want it to be. Here’s what some of them say about the experience and outcome of working with Nomad Built:

2a

The team at Nomad Built were amazing from quote to finish. Our son was born a couple weeks earlier than expected, in the middle of the refurb. They were able to complete earlier than anticipated, plus quality workmanship. Highly recommend.

Jessen O'Sullivan

2a

They were men of their word and as we were dealing remote (we were interstate) their prompt presence for dealing with our problems was indeed a relief for us. They kept us in the picture with photos of their work completed. Very trustworthy and professional.

Rob Venn

2a

Jake, Jack and Harry were a delight to deal with and nothing was too much trouble.
We would honestly have no hesitation in giving them the highest praise for their professionalism, pride in their work and a great working relationship experience with us.
