How We Work

 

About Us

Blue Rock Construct is led by Director Peter Hill and Construction Manager Caelum Shorland. With a combined experience of 50 years in residential and commercial construction.

We bring a skillset combining high end architectural detailing and meticulous craftsmanship with rigorous project management.

We bring beautiful design to life with our suite of quality trades and detail driven carpenters. This ensures the final product meets the excitement of your dream house during design.

Our contract administration processes keep clients informed at all stages, clearly recording all decisions. This ensures transparency and clear communication from start to finish. The financial health of a project is crucial. This is probably the biggest investment people will make and we provide the security and trust that should demand.

Concept Stage

The initial stage to get a basic concept together based on your budget. You may already have chosen an architect or we can connect you with our extensive industry network. Once complete an initial costing is done to ensure the project starts on a good financial footing.

Design Development

Where the hard work is done to develop the design, final finishes etc. There’s often a Town Planning application at this point. If so an additional costing is done to BEFORE submission to Council - a planning approval you can’t afford can create big delays.

We also review the design to ensure it provides value for money. The design outcome is crucial - but it’s also important the most cost effective construction detail is developed to achieve it. This is one of the most valuable contributions a builder can make during this stage.

Building Permit & Construction

Once Design Development is complete the project is about 85% documented. We now provide an accurate costing, giving you the confidence the project can be finalised on budget. To lock the project into our construction schedule we take a deposit that secures your build start date.

Then over the next 2 months or so all documentation is completed, a Contract signed and Building Permit secured. Then we are off! A seamless transition between design and construction, ensuring you get your dream build in the quickest timeframe possible.

Construction

Our philosopy is to resolve all design decisions prior to construction. This will save time and money and allow us to focus on the high quality construction we are known for.

Of course construction throws up issues, particularly when dealing with existing buildings. Our combined 35 years of experience ensure we are well equiped to deal with whatever arises.

Communication is paramount during the build. Regular site meetings will be held to track the project program and keep you informed. Our support will continue at handover and well beyond to ensure you happily settle into your new home..
