FAQs

Do builders in Melbourne need a licence?

Yes. Builders in Melbourne must hold a current building licence or registration (for example a NSW Fair Trading builder licence, VBA registration in Victoria, or QBCC licence in Queensland) and carry home-building compensation insurance for residential work above the state threshold.

What does a builder in Melbourne typically handle?

A builder in Melbourne manages the full project — engaging subcontractors, arranging the building certifier and inspections, procuring materials, ensuring NCC/BCA compliance, and keeping the job on program and within the contract price.

How long does a typical home build take in Melbourne?

A standard single-storey home in Melbourne usually takes 6–10 months once approvals are in place. Double-storey or custom homes can take 10–16 months depending on design, weather, and trade availability.
