Commencing Your Knock Down Rebuild Journey

Our expert team will expertly shepherd you through the entire Knock Down Rebuild process.


As you embark on your knock-down rebuild journey, your sales consultant will be your trusted guide every step of the way. Starting with the initial site assessment and extending all the way to the post-move-in warranty inspection, you'll receive clear and transparent answers to all your inquiries. This ensures that you have a precise understanding of what to anticipate and when to anticipate it at each phase of the knockdown rebuild process.

  3. Stormwater Treatment: In an increasing number of council areas, a hydraulic engineer's design for stormwater treatment is now mandatory. This entails hydraulic design for:

  4. Flood Considerations: Areas designated by the council as low-lying, coastal, or otherwise prone to flooding may necessitate flood studies, raising the floor levels of your home, and the use of site-specific building materials.

  5. 88B Document: This spells out the presence of easements and other elements that would affect the construction on your block.
