The Allcastle Homes Build Process

While the journey from choosing your home design to making it your home may seem a little daunting at first, the Allcastle Homes build process makes it easy, enjoyable and totally stress free. Even better, our experienced team of consultants are right by your side from the very start to the sensational finish.

11 Steps from "which home" to "WOW, that's my home!"

It’s not every day you get to experience the excitement of seeing your dream home come to life. At Allcastle Homes we're here to ensure you enjoy the experience every step of the way.

Our easy-to-follow 11-step Build Journey is designed make the entire process uncomplicated, informative and inspiring.

Whether it’s a double or single storey home, with nearly 100 impressively crafted and masterfully built homes in our collection, you’re spoilt for choice. Our experienced consultants will help you select the home design to suit your land and your lifestyle. You can then select your facade and level of inclusions that best represent your personal style. 

To start the tender process and secure your current pricing and any promotional offers, a non-refundable Tender Request Fee is required.

We’ll present your tender, answer any questions you may have and once your non-refundable Plan Preparation Fee is received, we’ll commence with the initial drawings of your house plans. With the help of your Infinity Selection colour pack, you can start looking at customisation options such as interior and exterior colours, finishes, appliances and brands.

At this stage your Allcastle Homes Plan Presenter will meet with you to confirm that your home plans accurately reflect all your requirements and discuss any final changes. You’ll also meet your Allcastle Homes Colour Consultant to help you finalise your external colour schemes.

A signature and a 5% deposit (less the Plan Preparation fee) on your building contract means you are now officially on the fast track to enjoying your new home.

Allcastle Homes will first lodge your plans for BASIX assessment, and then to the relevant approving authority for assessment.

You’ll meet with your Allcastle Homes Colour Consultant in our Infinity Selection Centre to talk kitchen/bathroom finishes and fixtures, internal paint colours, doors and floor.

Upon final sign-off of your construction set of house plans, colour selections and post-contract variants, Allcastle Homes will start construction.

This is where you’ll see new home come to life! You’ll have exclusive access to the Allcastle Homes customer portal which provides you with regular updates and progress photographs of your build. Your Construction Supervisor will also meet with you on-site to provide updates.

After meeting with your Construction Supervisor on-site and completing a quality inspection check of your new home, we’ll meet with you at our Head Office to handover your keys to your dream home.

Even after you’ve had your housewarming party and settled in, you can sleep easy knowing we’re still with you to offer ongoing support and advice throughout the warranty period.

Frequently asked questions.

Q: What should I bring to my first meeting with Allcastle Homes?

A: The short answer is, bring yourself, your ideas and an open mind.

This first meeting is all about getting to know you, understanding your lifestyle, budget and what you’re hoping to achieve with your new home.

If you already have things like your land details, inspiration images, a list of must-haves or a rough budget in mind, feel free to bring them along. But don’t worry if you’re still in the early stages, our experienced consultants are here to guide you, answer your questions and help you discover what’s possible.

 

Q: How long will it take to build my new home?

A: Every home is different, so build timeframes can vary depending on your home design, approvals, site conditions and weather. From your first conversation through to construction and handover, your Allcastle Homes team will provide clear guidance on the stages involved and keep you informed throughout the journey.
