Owner Builders represent the largest group of builders in Australia. There are many challenges with building and being an Owner Builder has both its risks and rewards.
The risks are usually based around a lack of construction knowledge and dependencies upon unproven tradespeople and suppliers. Not having a regular trade base can also prove costly as project delays through unavailability of labour whittle away at the perceived cost savings through not using a builder.
Most builders employ a range of staff from contract document preparation and control through to the construction staff who deliver the project through to completion. Owner builders are generally the project managers of their new home and require a range of services to assist them in the completion of their home.
