With over 17 years in business, Hunter Coast Homes is an Award winning construction company that has developed many projects throughout the Hunter Valley. Our work has included small commercial constructions, duplexes, multi-unit projects and a diverse range of architecturally designed homes to suit our clients' needs. Hunter Coast Homes has experienced a steady and controlled growth with each year and this is reflected in the level of Home Owners Insurance cover that we can offer our customers, mandatory on each project.

We pride ourselves on our ability to provide a quality service and product at a fair and reasonable price. At Hunter Coast Homes, we believe in excellent value for money for our clients. As you are no doubt aware, the cheapest quote is not always the best option. This is especially true in the building industry where job inclusions and specifications can vary enormously.

Each job is assigned to our construction department only after contracts have been signed, and all internal and external selections are received by the office. This allows us to place orders for trades and products promptly and accurately, which then affords our clients an enjoyable and well communicated building experience. A supervisor is then allocated to control your project and he will keep you very well informed in regards to the progress on your project. Your personalised building program is updated on a weekly basis which keeps you well informed and aware of your impending completion date. All the usual and statutory guarantees and warranties are provided and we offer an after-completion and handover service that is second-to-none. We expect to create a friendship with each client and see that friendship remain long after the contract and works have been completed in full, so it is our goal to ensure you are completely satisfied with your building experience.

This information is all provided so that you will have peace of mind in selecting a builder that will provide you with service and experience that you desire. You can be assured that you are about to engage with a company with very high business standards and morals. These standards ensure our very favourable reputation continues and remains the envy of many of our competitors within this region.

At Hunter Coast Homes, we are extremely proud to have been named Hotondo New South Wales Builder of the Year in 2001. We have also won many HIA Hunter Housing Awards since, including Custom Build Home of the Year 2002, 2004 & 2006; Townhouse/Unit of the Year 2003; Display Home of the Year 2005, 2009; Townhouse/Villa Project of the Year; 2010 Townhouse/Villa Development for the Frederick Street, Merewether townhouses; and, recently, 2011 Finalist Custom Home Construction Over $1million.
 

Hunter Coast Homes Pty Limited commenced trading in June 1993 and has been involved with more than 300 local projects throughout the region.

The company was initially formed by Trevor Bice, a current director, in partnership with his wife, Karen. Initially, the company was known as Bicebuild. The business was operated from Trevor's residence for the first 7 years of trading, which allowed the company to enjoy steady growth, cost control and immediate attention to customers' needs, business ethics that are still very much focused upon today. In 1995, the company Bicebuild Pty Ltd was formed and started trading as Hunter Coast Homes. This path was followed for 4 years before 1999 saw the building industry heading for its busiest period ever with the introduction of the GST on July 1, 2000. This period throughout the building industry was unbelievably busy, with demand outweighing supply enormously and resources stretched to breaking point.

In May 2000, Darren Rodgers joined the company during the mad pre-GST period and ended up purchasing fifty percent of the business in July 2000 to become a full partner. Further changes were then necessary, the company name was changed to Hunter Coast Homes Pty Ltd and the company was re-located to an office space in Lambton. As part of the expansion plans, more staff were employed to help with the ever increasing workloads we were experiencing.

We have recently completed a new head office and warehousing facility at Carrington from where we are operating. We have included state of the art kitchens, bathrooms and construction, so our clients can see the level of finishes and expertise that they can come to expect from one of Newcastle's most respected building companies.

Today our staff levels have grown and our employees are committed to customer service and delivering a quality product to our clients on time and on budget. The Hunter Coast team is as follows:
