Neater Constructions Cairns - The Right Builder

Neater Constructions - The Right Builder

Choosing the right designer and builder is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make.

There is an old saying "long after the price is forgotten, the quality remains". Nothing could be more appropriate when it comes to building with Neater.

With two generations of construction experience we have discovered the best way to run a healthy and prosperous building company where clients come back time after time. Our previous projects are an example of the companies' ongoing commitment to quality. "Here are some of the reasons why we believe we do it better"

An important part of customer care is the relationship we build with you, before, during and after the construction of your new project. We're with you every step of the way starting with your initial consultation with our MD Licensed Builder Col Neate and our Building designer. Both have extensive experience within the housing and construction industry. Both will take time to discuss and learn exactly what it is you require in your project and they will help you select suitable design features which will complement and suit your needs as well as the geographical location of your property. To enable us to proceed with conceptual design details we ask you to enter into a Preliminary Agreement and pay a deposit, this will formally engage our services.

The Agreement outlines the extent of our engagement and associated up front costs attributed to Contour Survey, Geotechnical Investigation and Architectural Design. Upon your acceptance, the first item on our agenda is for Col Neate and our Building Designer to meet with you on site to discuss your ideas as well as the prevailing elements which could influence the way you live.

Some of your most important decisions will be made at this time, such as designing to take advantage of the harsh North Queensland Summers.

The amount of earthmoving required.
(Positioning your home to take advantage of the views)
The direction of prevailing breezes.
(They will cool your home through the hot summer)
The direction the sun rises and sets.
(So that you don't have hot living areas in the afternoon and evening)
The direction storm water runoff will take during torrential rain.
(Alleviate flooding and ponding around the building)
The soil assessment and type of foundation required.
(So your future investment doesn't crack up)
The location of survey pegs.
(So your home is built on your land and not your neighbours)

Peace of Mind

Throughout the entire design and construction process we keep you informed, be it with emailed PDF concept design plans to digital photographs of your project from start to finish. You will feel involved and excited about you project as well as part of the team. All construction methods are in accordance with the Building Code of Australia and Queensland edition of the Australian Domestic Construction Standards and the Timber Research & Development Advisory Council of Queensland.

We are committed to the implementation and maintenance of our quality policies in all aspects of our company procedures and this commitment is sought from our suppliers and subcontractors.

Afterwards

There are times when a new building will require maintenance. We treat this as importantly as we would the commencement of your project. With residential the initial maintenance period commences at handover and runs for 6 months. Our maintenance is important to us and we welcome feedback at all times (maintenance is very important to us). All our maintenance work is carried out by a dedicated experienced team whose job is to assess and fix the problem immediately.

This covers the following:

Any defects which results from the failure of Neater Constructions to meet industry standards for construction and finish.
Any defect which is of a kind which commonly occurs during the settling in period of a new building (eg settling doors and windows/cracked plasterboard and cornice joints).
Any defective electrical fixtures and fittings (eg fans/lights).

Through the Home Owners Protection Act., the Queensland Building Services Authority offers a 6 year and 3 month structural guarantee over the residence, ensuring that all major defects are attended to by the builder.

We thank you for sparing us a few minutes to find out the pride & workmanship we put into all of our projects. Choosing the right builder is one of the biggest decisions you'll ever make, we hope we have made your decision easier.
