Our Process

Step 1. First Meeting

Your first meeting with J Co Constructions involves sitting down for a casual discussion with our friendly sales team. This helps us understand how we can best assist and help bring your dream home to life. During your meeting, we’ll go through a range of ready-made house plans that can be customised to suit your needs. If you’re looking for a complete custom build, we will start with an initial concept plan where we gain a thorough understanding of the vision for your home.

Step 2. Preliminary Design + Quoting

After your initial meeting with J Co Constructions, we will then connect you with a reputable building designer, drafter or architect that best suits your vision and budget. Our team works closely with you and the chosen designer to ensure you get your desired outcome. Once your design is finalised, our Builder, Joe McGuirk, will present an all-inclusive quote in person where you can discuss every aspect until you are happy with the result.

Step 3. Selections

The selection process is where your vision starts to take shape. Our dedicated team, including our Sales and Design Consultant, will work with you to bring your ideas to life. With a strong passion for design and extensive knowledge of current trends, fixtures, and fittings, they ensure every choice aligns perfectly with your design brief and works seamlessly in your space.

We’ll arrange meetings and if required, attend these with you and trusted suppliers to help select the fittings and finishes that best suit your style and needs. As a leading custom home builder on the Sunshine Coast, we provide a comprehensive J Co Constructions Selection Schedule, detailing all internal and external selections for your build. This ensures transparency and helps bring your dream home to life with precision and care.

Step 4. Approvals Certification + Engineering

Here is where J Co Constructions guides you through the approvals process.

Once your plans are finalised, selections are locked in, and your quote is accepted, we prepare everything behind the scenes to get your build ready. Our builder and site supervisor collaborate with engineers, truss manufacturers, and building certifiers to ensure every detail is meticulously planned before construction begins. This proactive approach helps ensure a seamless building process from start to finish.

We partner with trusted local companies, leveraging long-standing relationships to secure optimal start timeframes and maintain consistency, setting the stage for your new Sunshine Coast custom home.

Step 5. Construction

The construction process is one of the most exciting stages of building your custom home on the Sunshine Coast. Our Operations Manager works closely with the builder to ensure your project is smooth, efficient, and stress-free. You’ll receive weekly on-site updates and clear communication to keep you informed as your dream home takes shape.

After the frame is complete, we’ll organise an on-site walkthrough to finalise important details, such as electrical and plumbing positioning. This step helps you visualise your new space and ensures you feel confident every step of the way.

Once construction is complete, J Co Constructions coordinates a professional builder’s clean before unveiling your custom-built Sunshine Coast home, ready for handover.

Step 6. Handover
