hello Ezn,

I don't know of a website as such but the best way to get a price is to speak directly to a Registered Builder and have him give you a price. Where abouts are you looking to build???

Hey Jase and Flic,

Just thinking…
To render whole house you are looking at about $38m2 with colour in the mix, this is the best form of render as it doesn't need to be painted and holds its colour. What are the rest of the houses facades like??? maybe just rendering the front with a 2 tone affect and a feature pergola or structure to break up the front and give it a visual wow!!
Busines very busy but always looking for more,
That is the joy of renovating, the possibilities are endless yet can be achieved at a sensible price.

Keep up the work!!!

Hello Ozboy,

I have used both materials for cabinetry work. Vinyl wrap is cheaper and yes can be made to look like two pac as for bubbling i have only come across it a few times and it was because of poor manufacturing. Two pac looks brilliant but if you scratch or damage it, it is going to cost.
If you are looking to use in an IP then i would use vinyl wrap or even just laminate.

Hope this has been of help

Hello Property Passion,

I am a Builder in Vic, I recommend you go to either the HIA or MBA and do their certificate IV in Building and construction management as outlined by peter. This course will take you 1 yr part time. That certificate is the most simplified and quickest way to get the academic requirements required by the building commission on Vic. You will then need to be able to show at least 3 yrs minium experience of on-site work. Building 1 house as an owner builder even if it takes 3 yrs won't be enough to pass the commissions requirements. I recommend you also call the Building Commission firstly and ask them to send you out an application package to become a registered builder. That package will outline EVERYTHING you need to know, have and have done to gain registration. Then after you send all the required paperwork and forms there is an interview with the building commission that takes between 3-5 hrs and if you pass that and have all the requirements they will make you a registered builder (maybe).  Have you evert thought of finding a registered builder and making an arrangement with them so that you are the developer and they are the builder???
I can explain more on that if you'd like??
Hope this has been of help??

Hello,

The company i used to work for is in the middle of constructing 6 units and about 3 yrs ago they also built 8 units up in Lakes. Steady growth from what I can see and some developments starting to unfold.
It is a very good stop over point for people travelling the coast run into melbourne from syd or Canberra.

Aaron,

I have been thinking about the builder side of things, you need to have a look around and look for other builders who are doing unit work. They should be used to the council requirements that come with building multiple dwellings. As for not being ripped off that is any ones guess. Talk to a few different builders see who you feel comfortable with and I would go for it, even if they aren't a well known name does not mean they won't deliver a beautiful product after all there are apprx 25ooo registered builders in Victoria alone and no one knows all of them or has dealt with all of them.

Cheers
