Residential building services for considered home projects

Lios Built specialises in custom new homes, knockdown rebuilds, major renovations and extensions across Melbourne’s inner west, western suburbs and surrounding areas.

We work with homeowners, designers and consultants to deliver well-planned residential projects with clear communication, practical builder input and strong construction management.

Custom New Homes

Every site, household and brief is different.

Lios Built delivers custom new homes designed around the land, architectural intent and the way our clients want to live.

We work with clients and their chosen consultants to review buildability, scope, site conditions, budget expectations and construction requirements before work begins.

Throughout the build, the project is managed through direct builder involvement, trade coordination, quality control and clear communication.

Best suited to:

  • Architecturally designed homes

  • Custom family homes

  • Premium residential builds

  • Clients with completed or developing plans

Knockdown Rebuilds

A knockdown rebuild allows you to create a new home in a location you already know and value.

Lios Built can assist from the early planning stage or work from an established set of architectural or building design drawings.

We help clients understand the site, demolition considerations, access, services, permit requirements, construction scope and likely project risks before moving into the build.

The result is a new home tailored to the site and the client, rather than a standard design forced onto the block.

Best suited to:

  • Existing homeowners wanting to stay in their area

  • Older homes no longer suited to the family

  • Difficult or constrained residential sites

  • Clients seeking a custom alternative to a volume build

Major Renovations

A major renovation should improve more than the appearance of a home.

Lios Built undertakes substantial residential renovations involving structural changes, internal reconfiguration, upgraded finishes and significant improvements to the way the home functions.

We focus on understanding the existing building, identifying construction risks early and coordinating the new work carefully with the original structure.

Best suited to:

  • Full internal transformations

  • Structural renovations

  • Premium kitchen and living upgrades

  • Whole-home renovations

  • Projects requiring multiple trades and careful sequencing

Extensions

Extensions create more space while preserving the location, character and value of the existing home.

Lios Built delivers ground-floor and upper-level extensions designed to improve flow, natural light, living space and connection between the old and new areas of the home.

Careful planning is essential to ensure the extension works structurally, visually and practically with the original building.

Best suited to:

  • Ground-floor additions

  • Second-storey extensions

  • New living and entertaining areas

  • Additional bedrooms and bathrooms

  • Family homes needing more space

Pre-Build Advice

Early builder involvement can prevent expensive design, budget and buildability issues later.

Lios Built offers practical pre-build advice for clients who are considering a project, reviewing plans or trying to understand the likely construction requirements before committing to the next stage.

Depending on the project, this may include:

  • Initial plans review

  • Site and access considerations

  • Buildability feedback

  • Preliminary budget discussion

  • Scope and documentation review

  • Identification of potential construction risks

  • Guidance on the next steps required

This service is particularly useful before finalising drawings, consultant appointments or major design decisions.

Projects we may not be suited to

Lios Built may not be the right fit for:

  • Minor repairs and maintenance

  • Handyman work

  • Projects where only part of the construction scope is required

  • Owner-managed builds where the client intends to complete the remaining work

  • Projects without a realistic budget or defined scope
