What are the benefits?

A knock-down rebuild can transform an old block into the home you’ve been dreaming about.

Why knock down and rebuild?

As your family grows and lifestyle changes, your existing home may not offer everything you want. But if you already love where you live then there’s no need to move – a knock-down rebuild means you can stay right where you are.

Rebuilding on your own land allows you to stay within easy reach of friends, family, work and your favourite amenities. A rebuild also offers far more flexibility than a renovation, so you can turn an outdated house into a modern custom-built masterpiece.

If you’re happy right where you are, a knock-down rebuild can bring an abundance of lifestyle, comfort and convenience — and McCarthy Homes is here to deliver just that. Our knockdown rebuild specialists are here to guide you every step of the way, and ensure your dream home becomes a reality.

“We are so happy with our new home and we feel very proud to show it off to all our friends and family”

The house was finished off beautifully and so much care was taken that you would have thought we were the only people McCarthy’s were building for at the time. The job was even finished two weeks earlier than planned which meant we were able to have our landscaping and driveway completed before Christmas.

We are so happy with our new home and we feel very proud to show it off to all our friends and family. We also get a real kick when people driving past slow down to have a look.

To anyone wanting to build a home you can be proud of, to work with such caring people that they feel like family, then you can do no better than McCarthy Homes. We wholeheartedly recommend McCarthy Homes.

“Our experience building with McCarthy Homes was exceptionally positive”

We would highly recommend McCarthy Homes to anybody seeking a quality builder. Our experience building with McCarthy Homes was exceptionally positive, from contract through to hand-over stage. Six years on we love our McCarthy Home now more than ever and continue to receive very positive feedback from visitors about the quality of workmanship and finishings in our home, and its ‘perfect’ layout. McCarthy Homes will definitely be our builder of choice should we build again in the future.

Thanks to all team members at McCarthy Homes on delivering a beautiful home for our family. Communication was prompt and all trades have been held accountable to a high standard.

“This is our fifth home we’ve built over the years and this one has been hassle free.”

We are so happy we built with McCarthy Homes. This is our fifth home we’ve built over the years and this one has been hassle free. Once the plans came out from council, our Site Supervisor was introduced to us and we had a wonderful relationship in the building process. We were kept appraised each step of the way and the time frames he offered were met. At our six month maintenance, there were only a few minor items to be addressed and they were attended to without fuss. The quality of the workmanship has been great – we haven’t even had cracks in the plaster cornices! If I was to consider building again, I would certainly look at what McCarthy can do for me. Kind regards.

Knock-Down Rebuild FAQs

A knock-down rebuild is a type of new home construction that involves demolishing an existing house to rebuild a new one in its place. Knock down rebuilds are an affordable alternative to major renovations or purchasing vacant land for your project.

It only takes 1-2 days to demolish a house, depending on the size of the property and whether the demolition company needs to deal with issues like asbestos. The full demolition process takes approximately 2 months. That time is used to plan the project, obtain council approval, demolish the house and clear away the unwanted materials.

A knock down rebuild is typically the better option if you are considering major home renovations. Rebuilding your home gives you complete freedom to design a property that’s perfect for your lifestyle. It also adds value to the home, improves energy efficiency and comes with less financial risk than a renovation or extension.

If you’re only planning minor changes or a small extension, renovation may be the better option for you.

You are responsible for organising demolition during a knock down rebuild project. This gives you the freedom to compare quotes and choose a demolition contractor that’s available when you need them.
