With our head office in Cranebrook, this community is more than where we work, it’s where our story continues to grow and where our passion for helping local families create their dream homes began.

We were proud to attend alongside our team and were truly humbled to be presented with the Outstanding Service & Trade Award. Being recognised by the Local Business Awards is particularly meaningful because it comes from the community that has supported us throughout our journey. For us, this award means far more than a trophy. It represents the trust thousands of local families have placed in Better Built Homes to build one of life’s biggest investments.

We also celebrated welcoming our 1,000th Better Built Homes customer, a milestone representing 1,000 families who have trusted us to bring their dream homes to life. This month, we’re excited to open our brand-new Figtree Hill Display Home, with another exciting chapter still to come later this year as we open our newest display home in the Hawkesbury.

The new North Richmond display will provide local families the opportunity to experience our craftsmanship, design and quality firsthand while celebrating the community that has supported our journey from the very beginning.
