To Extend Or Do A Knockdown Rebuild?
If the foundations of your home are solid and all you need is an extra room or two, then an extension is probably the best option. However if creating your dream home requires considerable structural changes, a knockdown rebuild may be the right decision.

A Personal Message From Ryan Stannard
What breaks my heart about this industry is seeing families pour their hopes—and their savings—into a home, only to be left disappointed.
Whether it’s poor workmanship, blown-out budgets, or frustrating delays, too many homeowners end up with a house that falls short of what they imagined.
That’s exactly why I’ve spent almost 20 years perfecting our proven process—so we can consistently deliver homes that are beautifully built, suited to your lifestyle, and free from unnecessary stress.
This is the journey that shaped our trusted building approach.

What An Awesome Company
I have thoroughly enjoyed building with Stannard family homes. The whole process from planning to handover has been positive. Every staff member works hard and displays above average service. Nothing is too hard and they are very responsive to any communication. The quality of work from all their trades is high. Phil made sure timelines were on track and details were accurate. When doing selections all companies were helpful and had a great range to choose from. They were quick to rectify any errors.
We did spend a lot of time researching which company would build our new home. I am glad we chose Stannard.
They are an amazing team and I would not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends. With out a doubt I would build our next hone with them. Thank you guys for making our experience a pleasant one.
