What to Expect During Construction

At Ross North Homes, we know that building a new home is an exciting journey – but it’s also one that comes with a lot of moving parts.

Understanding what to expect during the construction process can help you feel more prepared and confident as your dream home comes to life.

Here’s a step-by-step look at what happens once your plans are finalised.

Foundation Slab Preparation with Reinforcement

1. Site Preparation

Before any building begins, your block is prepared. This may include clearing, levelling, and laying down essential groundwork to ensure a stable foundation. Our team works closely with engineers to make sure everything is ready for construction.

2. Laying the Slab

The slab is the foundation of your home. At Ross North, we use high-quality materials and trusted practices to ensure a strong and durable base – the essential first step to a home that stands the test of time.

3. Brickwork and Framing

Once the slab has cured, brickwork and framing begin. This is when you’ll really start to see the shape and structure of your home take form. Walls, doorways, and the overall layout become visible, bringing your floor plan to life.

4. Roof Cover

With the walls in place, the roof structure and cover are added. This stage makes your home weatherproof, marking a big milestone in the build.

5. Internal Works

Plumbing, electrical, and internal fit-outs begin. This includes insulation, ceilings, plastering, and all the behind-the-scenes elements that make your home functional.

6. Fixtures and Finishes

This is when your chosen selections start to shine – cabinetry, benchtops, tiles, and tapware are installed. The home begins to reflect your personal style, as all the details come together.

7. Final Touches and Inspections

Before handover, the home goes through final checks to ensure everything is up to standard. Our team is meticulous with quality assurance, making sure your home is delivered at the high standard Ross North is known for.

8. Handover

The moment you’ve been waiting for – your keys are handed over! We’ll walk you through your home, ensuring you’re comfortable with all features before you move in.

At Ross North Homes, we make the building process as transparent and smooth as possible. With over 45 years of experience in Perth, our trusted systems and expert team ensure that you can enjoy the journey, knowing your home is in safe hands.
