Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Jan 07, 2016 7:18 am Hi there, I've bought a 450m2 block in the Corinda Riverside Estate (Brisbane) and would love to hear some builder recommendations from people that have built recently, with local quality Brisbane builders. This is my first build and I'm keen to find a reliable builder that is easy to work with and can provide sound advice and deliver at an affordable price. I am looking at a 2 story, 4 bed, 3 bath+ study and double garage with a Hampton style look/ feel. Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks!

We haven't built with them but friends recommended Evermore who do Hampton style. They were nice when we spoke to them but a little over our budget. Craig Rynne is another builder we spoke to who does Hampton style homes. I've heard good things about him and we are using him for building inspections, but again was slightly over our budget. Craig built 20 Dianne St in Yeronga last year (I think that's the house number). Hampton's style homes seem to sit between $1500-$1900/sqm based on our conversations.

I have spoken to Evermore already as they look lovely, but they said they start at $500/$600k... Which is also out of my budget. I'll check Out the Yeronga house thank you Have you chosen a builder? If so who did you go with? Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 4Jan 07, 2016 6:13 pm We went with Clarendon. Size ended up winning over style. If you want more budget Mark at Urban homes was doing a Hampton style house at ascot (I think). They do more Hampton style kitchen as standard than most of the other 'project' type builders. Pm me if you want more details. McCarthy Homes has a hampton style house released at Rochedale recently too.

If so, how did you find them? Thanks! Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 6Jan 16, 2016 6:52 pm Hi, We are also building in the same estate! We have decided to go with McCarthy Homes. As we haven't started building yet, I can't give you any feedback on the quality of the build (although the majority of reviews we have read are positive). However our experience with the sales staff (Andy- at Springfield Lakes) has been really positive and they have helped us work with the floor plan to come us with something we love that suits our block. The cost is a bit more than builders like Simmonds and Plantation but not hugely and less than smaller builders like Evermore. Good luck making a decision we spent months trying to make a decision! Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 7Jan 19, 2016 6:55 pm We had built our first home with AMT homes, we found Mick the director very helpful, reliable and competitive on price and do know that he has a contract to build a house for a client in Corinda off Keble road Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 8Mar 10, 2016 7:00 am Hi ForeverHome 2016, that's exciting! I went up to the estate on Tuesday and was excited to see a few more blocks prepped and another slab poured. I'm still finalising my plans.... very close now ? Did you apply for any relaxations? How long did it take you to get your plans approved with metro and council? Thanks for the tip BH86 I'll check out AMT too, I might get them to quote my plans when they are ready. Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 9Mar 30, 2016 1:58 pm Hi. I also bought one at Corinda. Do you know if there is NBN there or just ADSL. Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 10Mar 30, 2016 2:24 pm ^all I know is that there is CAT5e and CAT6 cables there. Those are suitable for NBN but I can't see it being on the NBN rollout map. Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 11Mar 30, 2016 3:04 pm Hi there is nbn set up for when they roll out in the area. Have you chosen a builder? Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 12Mar 30, 2016 3:27 pm Oh. I've heard there's NBN there but I'm unsure.

They said they are probably going to put NBN in after all homes have finished and that it was planned as a NBN package. Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 16Mar 30, 2016 7:45 pm Yes I understood it was all prepped for nbn, but assumed it would be available when it got rolled out in Corinda, I wasn't aware they were waiting for all the houses to be built? Creation was going to deliver the houses in the original packages and has already started a few behind the park. I was looking at coral and had modified one of their plans but the estimate costing were nearly double the original baseline packagepackage and the quality of their displays were OK but not great. I've ended up designing my own plans. Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 17May 26, 2016 6:55 pm So much progression right now here Re: Builder recommendations for Corinda (Brisbane) 18May 27, 2016 6:27 am Yes there is... it's very exciting.
