FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Find quick answers to commonly asked Custom Home questions.

What is your custom home build region? We build custom homes from North Brisbane, throughout the Sunshine Coast, and up to Gympie. Our extensive local knowledge is invaluable for navigating council regulations, understanding site-specific challenges like sloping blocks, and sourcing the best materials for the South East Queensland climate.
What custom homes do you specialise in?

We specialise in a diverse range of custom homes, including luxury residences, spacious acreage homes, multi-generational living spaces, accessible homes, and unique designs for challenging blocks. Each project is tailored by our in-house draftspersons, ensuring designs reflect your lifestyle and specific requirements.

How do you ensure a minimum 7-star energy rating?

We achieve the required 7-star energy rating by meticulously designing the building's roof, walls, windows, and floors to maximise energy efficiency. This results in a comfortable home with reduced long-term energy costs.

What distinguishes AUSMAR's design process?

Our design process is highly collaborative, starting with a detailed consultation to understand your vision. Our in-house draftspersons then translate these ideas into precise plans, ensuring every detail meets your expectations and site requirements.

How do you manage your construction timeframes?

We provide detailed construction schedules and transparent quotes, ensuring you understand all costs involved. We maintain open communication throughout the build, using the Buildertrend platform for real-time updates and progress tracking.

What warranties does AUSMAR provide?

We stand behind the quality of our craftsmanship and materials.

To provide you with complete peace of mind, we offer a comprehensive warranty package. This includes a robust 6-year, 6-month builder's structural warranty, safeguarding the integrity of your home's foundation and framework.

Additionally, we offer a 12-month maintenance warranty, ensuring any minor adjustments or issues that arise post-construction are promptly addressed. 

Furthermore, all our supplier materials, fixtures, and finishes come with their own manufacturer warranties, the duration of which will vary depending on the specific inclusions you select for your home. We provide detailed information about these individual warranties as part of your comprehensive building contract.

Why choose a custom home over standard plans?

While our standard home designs offer a proven, streamlined building experience, a custom home with AUSMAR unlocks the potential for a truly personalised home build.

We offer you the option to completely tailor every aspect of your home to your unique needs and lifestyle, from the layout and finishes to functionality and aesthetic. This is particularly valuable when facing challenging sites or when you have specific visions that standard plans simply can't accommodate.

We excel in transforming those visions into reality, ensuring your home is a perfect reflection of you and your aspirations, and a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality.

How do you handle council approvals and permits?

We manage all council approvals and permits, leveraging our extensive knowledge of local regulations to ensure a smooth and efficient process. This includes preparing and submitting all necessary documentation.

Crucially, we have experienced client liaison officers who expertly manage this process, acting as your dedicated point of contact. They ensure clear communication, navigate any potential complexities, and proactively address any queries, guaranteeing a stress-free experience from application to approval.


Can AUSMAR build on challenging terrains?

Yes, we have extensive experience building on challenging terrains, such as sloping or uniquely shaped blocks. We specialise in optimising space and creating functional, beautiful homes by carefully assessing the site and developing innovative design solutions.

The significant benefit of choosing AUSMAR is our 32+ years of custom home building. It's rare we encounter a challenge we haven't already overcome. This expertise translates into a streamlined process, supported by a team who knows how to accurately quote and manage even the most challenging, non-straightforward projects, ensuring your dream home is realised regardless of the terrain.

How will I be kept informed during the process? We believe in open and consistent communication. We keep you informed through regular updates, meetings, and via our online Buildertrend platform. This platform allows you to see photos, documents, and communicate with us directly.
How long does the construction process take? The construction timeline depends on the size and complexity of the project, as well as weather conditions. We will provide you with a detailed construction schedule and keep you updated throughout the process.
Can I see examples of your previous work? Yes, please visit our gallery to view a selection of our completed projects. We also encourage you to contact us to arrange a visit to one of our display homes or to discuss specific examples of our work.
