Our way of doing things
Working with M Sky Homes

We work with you to ensure your dreams become a reality and your new home is everything you wished for and more – custom designed, beautifully crafted and finished to an exceptional quality standard.
M Sky Homes is a preferred Busselton builder and Dunsborough builder with a continuously growing reputation for quality building in the south west.
The M-Sky HOMES Design & Build Process
We take you through a transparent and enjoyable process, engaging you in every step of the way with friendly and open communication.
Step 1
Our first meeting
In a casual and personlised first meeting, M Sky Homes will catch up with you and get to know you a bit better – and you can get to know us!
We discuss the style of home you’re after, your budget, the block requirements and specific needs for your new home so we can move forward. This is done with a great deal of transparency, so means both parties know exactly what to expect.
step 2
PPA – Preparation Planning Agreement
So we’re all on the same page now! At this stage we will ask for a small deposit, allowing us to complete a contour survey and soil report.
As a designer and builder, we also design the home to a stage where we can give an accurate cost so there are no hidden extras. Seeing the beginning stages of your new home is where it begins to get exciting!
Step 3
Design Briefing
From here, an M Sky Homes’ Designer would have visited your site, so when you meet they can go into more depth of your requirements.
They encompass as much solar passive design into your new home as possible whilst maximising views. This is hugely important to us and will ensure you have wonderful light and a fantastic lifestyle in your new home.
STEP 4
The Working Drawings
We will make sure you are happy with the concept plans and costings – then it’s time to move onto working drawings where we can get down to the final details.
This is where we start to add all the wonderful details that will make your house a real home.
step 5
Contracts
At this stage we will produce your Preliminary working drawings and Preliminary Addenda along with the contract.
By this stage there should be no major structural changes and everything is ready to begin!
step 6
PRE START & COLOUR MEETING
Now it’s time for the fun stuff! You are provided with a highly-qualified Interior Designer for the day to go through all the fine details.
This includes tapware, power points, paint, tiles, the roof cover, type and colour. Your personality will really begin to show with your selections!
STEP 7
Pre Start Variations
If there are any variations by this stage, all the extra items and changes will be noted on a variation and sent to you.
This includes any credits or extra costs attached. Once approved, the final changes will be made to your plans and addenda. These will be sent for your approval.
step 8
CERTIFICATION
At M Sky Homes we have our plans privately certified to expedite the process.
When we receive the Certified plans we can lodge them to the shire, where they should have these back within 10 working days.
step 9
It’s time to start onsite!
Site meeting
We encourage site meetings on a regular basis to talk about your home and how things are going.
There may be some minor changes at this stage we can make to improve your home.
step 10
Completion
It’s the day you’ve been waiting for! It’s time to celebrate the completion of your new home!
We pride ourselves on delivering a completed home by (or before) the expected completion date.
