Who we are, 01

Who we are

A home should be the one thing you own that was made only for you. Most homes are a series of small compromises you agreed to before you moved in. A custom home is simply a home with none of those in it.

We begin with your block, your north, your budget and the way your family actually moves through a day, and we do not start drawing until we understand all four.

Then we build it ourselves, to a fixed price, with the same person answering your calls from the first meeting to the day you get the keys.

Detail, considered

Why Sakar

Six commitments. Not six adjectives.

Anyone can write values on a website. These are promises with operational teeth, and each one is explained, in full, on its own page.

Why build with Sakar

A fixed price, not a starting price

Your contract price is the price you pay. Every allowance and provisional sum is itemised and explained before you sign, not discovered at frame stage.

The number on your contract is the number you budget for.

One person, start to finish

The person who prices your home is the person who walks you through it at handover. You will never be handed to a department.

You never explain your own house to your own builder.

Designed here, not adapted

Every Sakar home starts on a blank page, against your site and its orientation. We do not modify a standard plan and call it custom.

A home that could not be built anywhere else.

A small number of homes each year

We cap how much we take on, deliberately. It is the only honest way to give every site senior attention.

Senior attention, not a rotating supervisor.

Specified above the minimum

7-star energy performance, upgraded waterproofing and acoustic separation between living and sleeping zones are our standard, not an upgrade line.

Fewer decisions, and none of them a downgrade.

You can see your build any time

Weekly photographs and a live client portal with your selections, variations, invoices and program. You should never have to chase your builder.

You always know exactly where your home is up to.

How it works

Eight stages. No surprises in any of them.

See all eight stages
01

Conversation

An unhurried hour. Your site, your brief, your budget. Free, and there is no obligation at the end of it.

02

Feasibility & concept

We assess the site, the council overlays and the numbers, then put the first concept on paper.

03

Design development

The plan is resolved with you, in person, until it is right. Then it is priced properly.

04

Fixed-price contract

A complete specification, a fixed sum and a signed HIA contract. Nothing left as “to be confirmed”.

05

Approvals

Lodged through PlanSA and managed to Development Approval, while your selections are finalised.

06

Construction

Weekly photographs, a live program, and the same trades we use on every home.

Our standard

We publish exactly what goes into a Sakar home.

Most builders will send you an inclusions list after you have handed over your details. Ours is on the website, in full, for anyone to read. It is the fastest way to understand the difference between a Sakar home and a home built to a square-metre rate.

  • 7-star NatHERS energy rating, standard, not an upgrade
  • 2,700mm ceilings to the ground floor throughout
  • Full-height tiling and a full membrane to every wet area
  • Custom cabinetry by our cabinetmaker, never flat-pack

Start the conversation

Tell us about the home you have in mind.

Every Sakar home begins with an unhurried conversation about your site, your budget and how you actually want to live. No obligation, no sales pitch, just a clear view of what is possible.
