The Home Building Process Explained: Step-by-Step with Sky Building Construction

Building a home is a major life milestone — and at Sky Building Construction, we believe it should be exciting, not overwhelming. Whether you’re building a custom home, duplex, or granny flat in Sydney or Perth, here’s a clear look at what to expect from the home building journey.

Step 1: Discovery & Consultation

We begin by learning about your goals, lifestyle, and budget. During this initial meeting, we’ll:

• Discuss your vision, priorities, and timeline

• Assess your block and site conditions

• Review council requirements and potential challenges

• 
  

You’ll get expert insights and honest advice — with no pressure to commit.

Step 2: Design & Planning

We work with you to develop a design that suits your lifestyle, block shape, and budget. You can bring your own plans or start from scratch with our team. This phase includes:

• Concept drawings and floorplans

• Exterior style and facade choices

• Review of finishes and custom options

We’ll also prepare and submit your DA (Development Application) or CDC (Complying Development Certificate) to ensure your build meets NSW or WA regulations.

Step 3: Fixed-Price Contract & Selections

Once your design is locked in, we present a detailed fixed-price quote — no hidden surprises. You’ll also finalise your material selections, including:

• Flooring, benchtops, cabinetry

• Fixtures, lighting, appliances

• Paint colours and feature elements

• 
  

Our team will walk you through a comprehensive selection process so you feel confident in every choice.

Step 4: Construction Begins

Once approvals are in, our site team gets to work. Your assigned project manager will:

• Coordinate trades and suppliers

• Maintain a clean and compliant worksite

• Provide you with regular updates

Depending on the size and complexity, builds typically take 4–9 months from site start to completion.

Step 5: Final Inspection & Handover

Before handover, we walk through the home with you to ensure everything is finished to the highest standard. You’ll receive:

• A full handover kit

• Occupation certificate

• Warranties and care instructions

Then comes the best part — we hand over the keys and you step into your brand-new space.
