Building your new home should be exciting, not overwhelming.
At New Era Homes, we make the process simple, transparent, and enjoyable from start to finish. Whether it’s your first home or your next chapter, we guide you through every step with care, communication, and expertise.

Before we begin
Once your finance and land are sorted, this is where your vision starts to come to life, where floorplans become tangible, selections are made, and we prepare everything for construction to begin.
From here, our experienced team takes care of all the details and keeps you informed at every step so you can enjoy the journey with confidence.
The building stages
Slab down
Once all approvals are in place, it’s time for your home’s foundation to take shape. The slab is poured, marking an exciting (and major) milestone, it’s the first time you can see the true footprint of your new home.
Brickwork
After the slab has cured, the bricklayers begin building your home’s structure. You’ll see the walls go up and rooms take form, giving you a sense of the layout and flow. This stage can take a few weeks depending on the size of your home and the weather, but it’s where everything really starts to come to life.
Roof cover
Once the brickwork is complete, your roof structure and coverings are installed. This not only protects your home from the elements but also defines its overall look and character. It’s another major moment, your new home now looks complete from the outside.
Post building stages
Lock-up
The lock-up stage is the third major phase in the building process, occurring after the frame and roof are completed but before the interior finishing begins.
At this stage, external doors and windows are installed, allowing your home to be “locked up” and secured. Inside, services such as plumbing and electrical work are prepared for the next stage of construction.
Finishing touches
Once your home is watertight and secure, the focus shifts to the interiors including plastering, cabinetry, painting, tiling, and all the details that make your house a home. Our quality assurance checks are completed throughout this process to ensure everything meets our standards (and yours).
Handover & beyond
When construction is complete, we’ll walk you through your new home during the handover inspection. This is where we check everything together and ensure every detail is exactly as it should be.
You’ll receive your keys, your warranties, and all the information you need to settle in confidently.
Even after you’ve moved in, our team is here to support you… because building with New Era Homes means being part of a community that values care, communication, and craftsmanship.
Your journey, made simple
At New Era Homes, we believe building your dream home should be as straightforward as it is rewarding. Our team is with you at every stage, offering honest advice, open communication, and genuine support from concept to completion.
