Six Degrees Building process

When you get certainty around your building process, you can plan your life with confidence.

Here’s a typical Six Degrees Building process:

Stage 1: Initial Consultation

We meet with you to find out about your building requirements and address any concerns or questions you’ve got about your building project.

Stage 2: First Consultation with Architect or Building Designer

We meet with your Architect or Building Designer to discuss your vision, concepts, ideas and budget.

Stage 3: Design of floor plan and concept

Your initial floor plan, design and concept need to meet your expectations and budget. Some of the discussion points include:

Window locations and sizes
Kitchen design
Bathroom design
Joinery
Finishes

Stage 3: Viewing our homes

We understand that you’d like to see what our work is like and can arrange a viewing of completed buildings or buildings under construction.

Stage 4: Quotation presentation

Going through our quotation in a face to face presentation means you get all the information you need and can ask as many questions as you like.

Stage 5: Sign contract

Six Degrees Building contracts are a legal document that has been specifically designed by the Housing Industry Association (HIA). To formalise our quotation, we both sign this contract.

Both parties will also sign your building plans. Six Degrees Building can then apply for QBE warranty insurance.

Stage 6: Submit plans

Six Degrees Building will submit plans for either council building approval or building permit approval.

After planning consent has been granted, construction approval will then be sought through local building surveyors. They will assess building and construction details including:

Frame design
Foundation design with soil testing
Engineers computations

The building surveyor will ensure every aspect of your building design and construction complies with relevant regulations.

Stage 7: Approval granted

After all approvals are granted, Six Degrees Building gives you an estimated commencement date and a time to complete your building construction.

Stage 8: Start and complete construction

Six Degrees Building starts work on your building.
