5) Family BusinessThe Owners’ vision was to create a building

no matter their budget, to create beautiful

personalized homes, not just houses. The

Owners remain an integral part of the day-

to-day running of the company ensuring that

those basic principles still apply.

industry, we don’t try to sell you a home, only

to later discover additional exorbitant costs.

90% of our site rubbish, actively participating

in decreasing 40% of overall landfill that

comes from the building industry. We

The second phase of your building

process is CONSTRUCTION. This is

the most important and exciting part

of your journey towards your new

home. During this time your home will

start to take shape, every step along

the way leading you close to the Key

Handover time.

Most of the homes we build are as

unique as you. This requires special

attention to details while maintaining

the aesthetics of the house. We detail

your build to fit the design versus

building to fit a budget. We pride

ourselves on exceeding the industry

standard through low maintenance

rates and longevity of our homes.

Most of our construction takes place

on site avoiding the trap of cheap

and poorly prefabricated materials.

We ensure your home will stand the

test of time by employing award

winning tradesmen that take their

work seriously and with pride.

Our site supervisors have many years

experience in the building industry

maintaining commitment to quality

and service. Our site supervisors

have a low ratio of homes to clients,

enabling them to concentrate on

superior building and quality control

as well as being available to clients

on a needed basis.

Possibilities.

Site preparationWe pride ourselves on site workers with an

excellent reputation in the industry, leaving

the site in perfect conditions.

Screw piles & concrete pilesImpressive attention to detail is our goal,

reflected in all areas of the build including the

Screw and Concrete Piles as shown in the site

photos (as needed).

FootingsWe exceed standard engineer’s details by

providing oversize and trench mesh in footings.

Drop footings for pools

Often builders don’t go to this

extent for drop footings.

Highbury Homes only uses high

quality local products while adhering

to best building practices. Our homes

are built to specifications exceeding

our competitors while complying with

strict quality control systems.

We are constantly on the look out

for award winning tradesmen to join

our team. 

Attention to detail is our signature

and our trades take their work

seriously and with pride.

We have a professional team

evaluating new products on the

market so we can keep up to date

with high standards and trends.

Each of our supervisors has a

Quality Assurance Program to

follow and each of the trades have

a comprehensive certificate to

complete.

Our senior supervisors are registered

builders and have a quality protocol

to complete with a physical check at

important stages of construction.

Designated meetings with clients

on site are scheduled into the

construction process.

Quality Assurance Program

A home’s quality is as solid as it’s foundation

Slab

At Highbury Homes we pride ourselves on our 100mm concrete slab (thicker than industry standard of

85mm) only using high quality products while adhering to best building practices.

Highbury Homes strictly uses a pump when pouring the slab.

Compared to other builders, we never drive our vehicles over

the slab, leading to destabilisation of the footings.

To reinforce the brickwork, along with

high quality local materials, we also

use vertical cored bricks instead of fast

wall bricks.

The fast wall bricks are significantly cheaper in

price and require less cement. Vertically cored

clay bricks to internal and external render walls

provide compressive strength compared to

most of our competitors.

Steel Columns In Cavities

Reinforcement in Brickwork

One of the ways we take extra time con-

centrating on details of our brick con-

struction is by using 6mm rods and weld

mesh to reinforce the brickwork. The

MRBL mesh provides better structural

integrity (as needed).

A propriety brand flashing system is used to combat water ingress, maintain a dry cavity and eliminate

leaks in double storey construction (other builders do not include these preventative measures).

Damp coursing throughout construction for

moisture and water proofing (attention to

detail other builders do not offer).

InsulationTo gain 6 star compliance, we use

cavity insulation as needed.

Ensuring flashings over windows

To hold down the roof, we use tie down

rods instead of tension cables often used

by builders. We take great care, time and

effort in placing the rods to ensure long term

peace of mind.

Different than industry standard, Blue Pine

roofing is considered our standard. Blue

Pine framing is H2 treated European house

borer and termite protected timber ensuring

durable framing solution.

Roofing

Balcony details120mm step down versus 86mm industry standard that allows us to screed the

balcony and maintain one course step into the house.

Balconies have fall to a tiled gully,

making it easy to clean and effective

in water elimination.

StairwellThe Gyprock lining leads to a clean uninterrupted

line. Most builders use hard wall plastering and

cover the joint between the concrete and brickwork

with a cover timber to prevent the show of cracks

at the joints.

Internal WorkingsWe only use local CSR Gyprock, never imported.

A fine example of our attention to detail.

Environmentally Conscious• We have adopted a strict program recycling 90% of our site rubbish,

actively participating in decreasing 40% of overall landfill that comes from

the building industry

while using conventional building materials and construction method

FlexibuildityIT’S YOUR HOME.

BUILD IT YOUR WAY.

Highbury Homes has a unique ‘customise without compromise’ approach to building

homes described as flexibuildity. Flexibuildity is about providing you with building

possibilities of greater choice and freedom. The building process relies on good

communication, integrity, skills and trust of all parties involved. The owners of

Highbury Homes are intimately involved in the day-to-day process of creating and

building your home taking in consideration the following five aspects of our market-

leading Flexibuildity:

FLEXIBUILDITY …OF DESIGN

We enjoy a challenge and take on one-off complex designs, home sites with unusual

shape or size, cottage homes, single storey, split level or multi storey designs

throughout Perth and surrounds.

…OF LOCATION

We build anywhere from Yanchep to the north and Mandurah to the south. To the

east, we’ll build as far away as the hills areas and up to Chittering.

…OF CONSTRUCTION

If you have a difficult site, we have the experience and expertise to build on it. If you

wish to have special features built, we can create them. If there are certain materials

you prefer, we use them. If there are specific finishing touches you wish to handle

yourself, we help you achieve the cost savings you’re seeking.

…OF SPECIFICATION

For your convenience, Highbury Homes has three levels of specification – Classic,

Premium and Dream. But this is just the start! We are more than happy to help you

find the fixtures and fittings you prefer.
