Top Building & Construction related questions

Prices vary depending on your specific location and other factors like your preferred materials, the complexity of the project, and your main contractor. On average, the cost of building a house ranges from $900 to $3,100 per square metre.

While this is possible, it’s not ideal to build your own property unless you have proven experience and the proper gear for construction work. Hire a Tasker instead to save you from the stress and hassle of overseeing the construction project. By working with a legitimate builder, you can ensure a smooth process, durable finish, and strict compliance with building industry codes.

The duration of your project depends on several factors, including the size of your property, type of service, number of Taskers involved, and level of customisation required.


As a general guide, constructing a shed can take a few days to several weeks, depending on your Tasker’s skill level and the materials used. Building a gazebo varies with the material. A simple wooden frame can be constructed in six to 12 hours with two to three people, while a custom build may take one to two days with a full contractor team. For home building and construction, tract and spec home builders take at least seven months to finish a house. Custom homes can take anywhere between nine months to a year for a full completion. 


For a more accurate and clear understanding of the timeline of your construction project, consult your Tasker.

Not necessarily. Your Tasker will have the necessary tools like hammers and nails, screws, saws, screwdrivers, and many others. However, if you have your own tools and prefer to use them, you can arrange this with your Tasker. Simply inform them beforehand so they know which tools to bring.

When choosing a home builder, consider their accreditations, licences, and certifications. Look for solid experience and a proven portfolio with a strong success record. Assess the builder's team—each member should be experienced and well-coordinated. Make sure they prioritise high-quality materials and demonstrate top-notch workmanship. Ultimately, select a builder who can meet your specific needs and preferences as a client.

It would be ideal if you already have a clear vision of what your property will be for and what it would look like. If you have yet to finalise this, consider hiring an interior architect to help you come up with a concrete idea for the design and layout of your property.

Save time, reduce stress, and ensure quality results with these top-notch services.


Swimming pool construction

A swimming pool is a fantastic addition to any backyard, offering a place to relax, cool off, and even entertain. Get acquainted with pool builders who can design and construct the perfect pool for your space. From in-ground to above-ground options, you’ll surely receive a smooth installation process and a stunning result by teaming up with seasoned Taskers. You can also book cleaners to help maintain your pool!

Whether you want a shaded area to meditate in or a stylish addition to your garden, these experts will build a pergola that suits your needs and complements your home.


Once your pergola is ready, why not spruce it up with more plants around the area? Book a plant delivery service or hire helpers to tidy up your garden.


Shed building and construction

A shed is a versatile addition to any property, providing much-needed space for almost any purpose. Get your Tasker to construct a custom shed tailored to your specific needs, whether you’ll use it for your garden, as a workshop, or as additional storage space. To make it more durable, consider booking a shed cladding service.


Home building and construction

Whether you're looking to build your dream home from scratch, renovate your current space, or add an extension to make it more spacious, home builders on Airtasker are ready to assist. Count on these experts to manage everything from initial design to final construction. Are you working within a strict timeline? Let your Tasker know so they can adjust accordingly to meet your expectations.


Once your home construction is complete, you can also order custom furniture tailored specifically for your household to add a personal touch to your new or renovated space.


Demolition

Starting fresh or clearing space for new construction? Hire Taskers in your area who can safely and efficiently handle your demolition needs. Seasoned home builders manage everything from small structures to large buildings, ensuring a clean slate for your next project. Not only do they have the experience, but they have the equipment to do the job right.


Once you’re through with the demolition and finished thoroughly clearing out the area, it’s time to think of what you want to build! Hire building designers you can collaborate with.
