What are the steps in building?
Building with Kingston Group isn’t just about the final result — it’s about how you get there. We’ve designed a process that keeps you informed, involved, and confident every step of the way. From personalised planning and upfront communication to your own live project webpage with updates, photos, and milestones — we make sure you always know what’s happening and what’s next.
1. Discovery & Feasibility
We start by getting to know you, your land (or desired area), and your goals. Whether you’ve got a section, a rental, or an idea — we’ll assess the development potential and walk you through what’s possible.
2. Customised Concept & Site Plan
We create a tailored concept that fits your needs, lifestyle, and land. You’ll see how it all looks, how it works, and how we’ll make the most of your space — including sheds, outdoor flow, and future use.
3. Transparent Pricing
No hidden costs. You’ll receive a fixed-price contract with a clear breakdown, so you know exactly what you’re getting, what it costs, and when it happens.
4. Council Consents & Admin
We handle the paperwork. From council consents to compliance, our team sorts the red tape, so you don’t have to. We’ll keep you in the loop, minus the headaches.
5. Build Begins — Stay Connected
Once consent is approved, our experienced team gets to work. You’ll have your own personalised webpage, where you can follow your build with regular updates, photos, and videos — so you always know what’s happening, even if you’re not nearby.
6. Completion & Hand Over
When your home is complete, we walk through every detail with you. You’ll get the keys to a finished, move-in-ready home — with all the hard stuff already sorted.
7. Aftercare That Actually Cares
Once you’re in, we’re never far away. You’re covered by a full 10-Year Master Builders Guarantee, plus our own Kingston Maintenance Commitment — because we believe support shouldn’t stop at handover.
8. Long-Term Check-Ins
A house build isn’t just a project — it’s a journey. We’ll check in at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, and 5 years to see how everything’s going, answer any questions, and ensure your home is standing the test of time. Before, during, and long after the build — we’re with you the whole way.
