Irregular Block Builders in Perth

We build on the blocks that other builders won’t

 

Building a new home on an irregular or unusual block presents an exciting opportunity to create a home that is truly unique. They also tend to be less expensive than traditional land shapes, meaning you can invest more in the design of your home.

Many buyers shy away from these kinds of blocks because it’s difficult to find builders who are up for the challenge. Luckily, we know exactly how to work with irregular and unusual land – we’re known for it.

What is an irregular block?

 

Most new home builders will only build on rectangle or square blocks of land. Any land that falls outside of these shapes is usually referred to as irregular. Type of irregular blocks include:

  • Blocks with slopes

  • Narrow blocks

  • Triangular blocks

  • Battleaxe blocks

  • Corner blocks

  • Wide frontage blocks

  • Asymmetrical blocks

Other factors that might affect your build include soil varieties like clay or sand, and restricted access.

Building on these blocks requires home builders who are experienced and have a good understanding of the potential challenges that can come with irregular blocks - like Patterson Construction. 

Communication is key for all projects but for unusual sites it is paramount. Planning for these sites needs to start as soon as the decision to build has been made, and thinking five steps ahead minimises unforeseen circumstances that may affect your home build. Lucas will be in constant communication about details regarding on-site restrictions and challenges and what Patterson Construction can do to overcome them. While many builders view irregular blocks as a headache, we view them as an exciting opportunity.

Maximise your design

 

The best thing about irregular blocks? There are so many incredible design opportunities that can turn your house from cookie-cutter to totally unique. Sloped land lends itself to multi-storey designs, while wide frontage blocks can make your home appear grander and larger than it actually is. Homes on irregular blocks can also allow more light to come through as you’re likely not side-by-side with the neighbours.

We work with designers who can create a home that considers your lifestyle, needs and the shape of your block. The result? A truly unique dream home that you’ll be proud to live in.

How we work

  • Site Inspection

    Lucas will visit your site and talk through what you’re thinking of building. He’ll investigate the site, taking note of any potential issues that will need to be considered during the build.

  • Design Appointment

    You’ll meet with a designer (yours or ours) to go over the home design and finer details like fittings and finishes.

  • Approval Process

    Together, we obtain all the necessary approvals, ready for construction.

  • Build Commences

    Once all approvals are received, Patterson Construction can take care of all components of construction from demolition through to landscaping. We’ll update you every step of the way.

  • Handover

    Congratulations, your home is ready! You get the keys to your new home and can start moving in.
