"Dear Chantelle, I wish to place in writing my deep appreciation for taking the initiative to resolve the delivery of tiles. I commend your professional attitude and promptness. Your enthusiasm and customer care attitude exceeds the highest of expectations. And since a company is known by the people it employs, I also wish to congratulate apg for their wise selection of staff."
Marshall & Morrell , Rossmoyne PERTH WA
"We first made contact with Shane in January this year. We already had inspected several apg homes and were impressed by the finish of those display homes we inspected. At all times Shane displayed a professional attitude, and provided fantastic insight and advice to us from the early stages through to the detailed design of our custom plan. Shane's demeanour put us at ease, and this was of great help. It is rare in this day and age to receive such a high standard of service with regard to sales in any industry. We look forward to a similarly smooth and mutually beneficial process as we progress into the construction stage with apg."
Gates , Ardross PERTH WA

Picken/Brown , Secret Harbour
"It gives me great pleasure to write this letter and say a huge thank you to the staff and trades people at apg who have helped us achieve our 'dream home'. The whole process from start to finish has been a very pleasant experience and this being our third build in as many years is not said lightly. We are absolutely delighted with the quality of finish of our new home and the attitude and professionalism of the staff and trades people we have encountered along the way. It has also been great to be included in the build throughout, we have known what is happening at every step of the way and any changes that have been required we have been involved with."
Hoole , Rivervale
"I'm in the building industry myself and have dealt with many supervisors over the years, so in a nutshell Jim Cunnington should be the bench mark that all supervisors aspire to be. Jim is very thorough in his work, if there's an issue during construction or problem with a tradesman's workmanship he rectifies and sorts the problem out with no fuss or bother, it's just done and fast at that. Jim, it's been a pleasure to work with someone who shows a high level of professionalism."

Frequently Asked Questions

How will I know what is happening with my house during construction? Fortnightly construction progress updates are provided directly to the client by way of a telephone call or email. This gives the client an accurate running commentary on each stage of the building project and a direct contact person to answer any questions along the way. The customer support officer can provide advice and assist clients plan their move into the new home. Can I get a key to my house before it is finished? Generally, keys are only handed over once apg have finished building the home. If access to the home is required during construction, apg are happy to arrange a meeting on site with your supervisor between the hours of 7.30am and 3.00pm Monday to Friday. Usually 48 hours notice is required. Can I make changes during construction? Some minor internal or cosmetic changes can be made and should be attended to and requested at the earliest possible time, however, an administration fee plus the cost of the work may apply depending on the nature of the variation. Unfortunately changes of a structural nature have a knock on effect through the entire building project and will not be allowed as apg must build the home as approved by the local council and in accordance with the building licence. Can I get some work done to my home during construction? apg are responsible for the building project during construction and have scheduled the home to be completed to a programme. Coordinating client trades along with issues of scheduling, insurance, quality, warranty and repairs can be difficult to manage. We believe it’s in the clients best interest to have their work completed after hand over to avoid potential delays and disputes with their trades along the way. Now my selections are done, when will my slab go down? Once your selections are completed along with the final drawings, all we need is the building licence and finance confirmation. Provided the block is titled and ready to build on, we can book the home in to commence site works ready for construction. This should take approximately 4 weeks from receiving your final drawings. When can I start choosing my colours? You can start choosing your colours at any time, however, your final selections are not required until after you receive your working drawings. Once the drawings of your home have been completed and presented, you will be called in to view and confirm all material and colour selections for your new home. Our experienced selection consultants will guide you through the selection studio and provide all pricing information for options and upgrades. A preliminary meeting before the official meeting will be organised to give you a good idea of what is available and things you need to do. Does the price include everything? Most prices you see advertised for new homes do not include the finishing items for the home or external work and site related costs. It is difficult to have an all inclusive price for each home as clients will have different ideas and budgets on how to finish their own homes. As a guide, allow for floor coverings, window treatments, light fittings, landscaping and site costs over and above the cost of the home. Preparing the site to build on will include clearing, levelling and retaining the block if necessary and apg can provide allowances for this work to be completed. Our building budget whitepaper from our downloads section may assist you in your budget preparation. Are individual designs more expensive than standard models? Buying a standard model home design will usually be more cost effective than starting from scratch. Much of the internal processing work has already been completed to achieve efficiencies through the system and in construction. apg do however, have a talented team of designers that produce tailor made cost effective designs for individual needs and block requirements to help maximise the lands full potential, particularly where views need to be achieved and accurate orientation is required. What block size do I need? Block sizes revolve around home design. If you have already selected a design, as a rule of thumb, you can look for blocks that are 3.0 metres wider than the widest part of the home design. The depth of the block will need to be at least 8.0 metres longer than the longest part of the home. There are other variables with the design that may impact on the block size you need and should be discussed with the builder beforehand. Some of these include the location of windows and balconies, lengths of walls in relation to setbacks from boundaries, whether it’s a single or double storey design, pools and outdoor garden layout, local council design guidelines and location of parapet walls. A chat with apg will give you all the answers before you buy the block. For more detailed information view our selecting the right building block whitepaper in our download section. What building methods do apg use? Traditionally, most homes in Western Australia are built in double brick construction for the walls with a concrete slab for the floor. In other states of Australia, and other countries, walls are constructed of regular brick on the outside wall with a timber framed veneer on the inside walls. In the case of two storey homes, the suspended floor is constructed of timber or steel. At apg we believe in providing choice by having the ability to build both. We simply prefer to let clients decide which is best for them, based on their own ideas and research. As one of very few builders to provide an option, we can advise on design, process and construction advantages or disadvantages for either method. How long does it take to build a home? There are several variables when it comes to building a new home before the building starts. These include the complexity of the design, local council regulations and compliancy, and the processing time during the design and approvals stage. Once a home is ready to start with all approvals taken care of, apg can give clients a much more accurate indication of the actual “build” time based on each design. Build times should only be quoted once this stage is reached and not include the time taken for building approvals as often these time frames are beyond the clients or builders control. As a guide, clients should allow “build” times of approximately 6 - 8 months for single storey homes and10 -12 months for double storey homes. Another 6 to 8 months can be added for the processing and approval stages before building begins. Why build with apg homes? apg consistently strive to provide our clients with the most up to date, up front information on all aspects of the building process to assist clients to make informed decisions for their new home building project. By listening and clearly understanding each clients individual need, apg can provide the best advice and help plan the entire building project from start to finish. This helps eliminate “surprises” down the track and avoid costly over runs and delays. All clients are kept informed through every stage with regular communication and updates by a dedicated in house team of professionals to ensure a smooth and enjoyable building experience. To find out more about this experience, view the apg journey from the downloads section.

Whether choosing a block in a new housing estate or looking at a newly created infill site, here are the 4 top tips that apply to all block types

Setting a new home building budget

For those who have not been through the new home building experience, it can be tricky trying to work out what a realistic budget should be and how to go about setting one from the beginning and more importantly, sticking to it. By using a "budget planner" you can compare the cost of building your new home (plus land) with comparable homes for sale or recently sold homes in your area, giving you an approximate idea of what your new home could be worth when finished.

With the increased focus on sustainability and all the talk on carbon emission, carbon foot prints, carbon trading schemes, recycling and energy efficiency, it is easy to become confused with the terminology and lose sight of what we are all trying to achieve with environmentally friendly and economical building solutions for our new homes.

Demolish and Build

Once you have made the decision that you can't put up with that old home any longer and the idea of extending or renovating just doesn't work, it's time to bring in the bulldozer and start from scratch. Starting with a blank canvas can be very exciting so it is important to get the timing right and avoid costly delays between vacating the old home and moving back in to your brand new one. To help you understand some of the issues and potential delays, here is a step by step guide to the "demo and build" process.

Demolish and Build - Planning the Move

When building a new home involves demolishing an old one, it's important to understand what needs to take place at each step of the way to help minimise as much downtime as possible and avoid costly delays. This period of upheaval is part of what needs to happen when moving from one home to another and can’t be avoided. It can, however, be intelligently managed for minimum disruption.
