What we build

Four paths to a
new home build.

New home builds Perth fall into four delivery types — custom-design, modular, knock-down rebuild, or extension-led major work. Each has its own programme, cost band and contract type. We design for the block, the brief and the budget.

01 · Custom

Custom design.

Bespoke architecture for your block — site-tested orientation, custom layout, premium specification. Longest programme, highest control over outcome.

02 · Modular

Modular delivery.

Factory-built modules transported and installed on a prepared site. Faster programme, fixed cost, comparable durability when engineered to WA conditions.

03 · Rebuild

Knock-down rebuild.

Demolition of the existing dwelling, slab and rebuild on the same block — keep the location, gain a contemporary home. Council and demolition managed end-to-end.

04 · Extension

Major extension.

Where a new build isn’t the right fit — second-storey or rear-extension delivery that adds the floor area without the demolition cost. Often the smarter spend.

Modular homes Perth

Modular homes
Perth-wide
faster build, fixed
cost.

Modular homes Perth has rapidly adopted as land prices climb and trades tighten. Factory-controlled construction, faster programme, lower variance — when engineered to WA wind and climate ratings, modular delivery rivals on-site builds for durability and finish.

When modular makes sense

Three reasons Perth homeowners choose modular over custom.

Modular construction can compress a 10–14 month build to 4–6 months — manufacture and site prep run in parallel rather than sequentially.

Factory builds reduce weather-delay variance and trade-availability risk — fixed-price contracts hold up better than on-site equivalents.

For Pilbara, Kimberley or south-coast blocks where trade availability is the bottleneck, modular often outperforms on-site delivery on programme and cost.

When modular makes sense

When custom is betterModular isn’t always the answer.

Steeply sloped blocks, heritage overlays, narrow access, structural complexity over single-storey — these favour custom on-site delivery.

As a builder rather than a kit-supplier, we’ll tell you upfront which path suits your block. The conversation is more useful when we’re not selling a fixed product.

Note — most of our residential work to date has been renovations, extensions and government staff housing. New-home builds and modular delivery sit within our WA Builder Licence (BC104702). If you’re at the planning stage of a new build, talk to us early about whether we’re the right fit.

Why us

Why Perth clients
brief us for new
home builds.

Four practical reasons clients pick GPD as the licensed builder for a new home. The unglamorous things that decide whether a build lands on programme and budget — or doesn’t.

01

A WA licensed builder.

BC104702 since 2023. Statutory home-warranty under the WA Home Building Act applies on residential builds over $20,000. Liability flows with the licence.

02

Builder, not a kit-shop.

Most ‘new home’ suppliers are kit shops with installer crews. GPD is a builder running modular and custom delivery in our name — defects and warranty sit with us.

03

Direct line to the builder.

Owner-operated. The builder reads every brief, signs every contract, runs every site meeting. No project-manager intermediary, no head-office bottleneck on decisions.

04

Twelve months aftercare.

Direct aftercare line for twelve months from handover, every job. Statutory warranty under the WA Home Building Act applies on top of that for the full warranty period.

Quality criteria

What separates good
new home builds
Perth.

The unglamorous things that decide whether a Perth new build performs for thirty years or starts to fail at year ten. None of these show in display-home photos. All of them matter.

Insurance

Energy

7-star NatHERS standard.

NCC mandates 7-star energy rating for new builds since 2023. Insulation, glazing, orientation specified at design — not value-engineered out at quote.

Compliance

BCA & NCC current.

Common questions

New home builds
Perth —
the questions we get.

The questions Perth homeowners ask before briefing a new build. Plain answers, plain English, no salesy hedge.

Most of our residential work to date has been renovations, extensions, and government staff housing — including a $400,000 Shire of Ashburton residential project in Tom Price and Paraburdoo. New-home builds and modular delivery sit within the scope of our WA Builder Licence (BC104702). If you’re at the planning stage of a new build, we’d rather have an honest conversation about whether we’re the right fit than oversell capability. Talk to us early.

Modular delivery: 4–6 months total (manufacture and site prep run in parallel). Custom on-site build: 8–12 months for entry-level, 12–18 months for premium. Add 2–4 months upfront for design, council approval and engineering before any site work starts. We build that into the programme upfront — no nasty surprises mid-build.

Modular suits flat blocks, conventional briefs, tight programmes, and remote-WA sites where trade availability is the bottleneck. Custom suits sloped blocks, complex sites, heritage overlays, two-storey designs, and clients who want bespoke architecture. As a builder rather than a kit-supplier, we’ll tell you upfront which path suits your block — the conversation is more useful when we’re not selling a fixed product.

Yes. Statutory home-warranty insurance under the WA Home Building Act is mandatory for all residential builds over $20,000 — taken out by the licensed builder before site start. We arrange and pay for the insurance as part of contract; it’s not a homeowner cost or admin task. The insurance covers structural defects for the warranty period defined in the Act.

Yes. Recent residential works in Tom Price, Paraburdoo, and across the Pilbara — plus commercial works in Onslow, Karratha, Boddington, Kwinana. We mobilise to remote WA. For new builds in remote regions, modular delivery often outperforms on-site construction on programme and cost — we’ll cover both options at brief stage.
