Timber formwork erected along a concrete slab edge on a Sydney building site

Carpentry. Concrete.
Guard rail.

One contractor across all three, for builders, commercial property, strata schemes and homeowners across Greater Sydney. These are the trades that keep meeting each other, so we run them with the same people.

Why Homestead

The gaps between trades are where jobs get lost.

Formwork and concrete are the same job seen from two ends. A spalled balcony edge and the balustrade going back into it is one job that usually gets split between two contractors. We run all three trades, so the handover does not exist, and neither does the argument about who owns it.

  • Formwork and the pour run as one package, not two subcontracts
  • Concrete repair and the balustrade reinstated over it, as one job
  • One coordinator for the whole package, not a different number weekly
  • We build to the engineer's specification, and say so when a job needs one and has not got one

Who we work for

Four kinds of client, one standard.

Builders & developers

Carpentry, formwork and concrete packages priced against your drawings. Formwork and the pour run as one package, so the two halves of the same job are not split across two subcontractors.

Commercial & industrial

Warehouse floors, hardstands, barriers, bollards and rack protection, staged around operations so the site keeps running while the work happens.

Strata & body corporate

Concrete cancer, balcony and soffit repairs, balustrades and handrails. The edge repair and the rail going back into it are one job, not two trades blaming each other.

Homeowners

Slabs, driveways, paths, decks and timber repairs, quoted in writing and built by the same crew who quoted them.

The part that matters is the part you cannot see.

Anchor depth, edge distance, cover and substrate all disappear the moment the work is finished. We build them to the detail your engineer specified, and we raise it rather than substitute when the site will not take that detail.

The process

Four steps, no chasing.

Send it through

Drawings, photos or a description. A real person reads it the same business day.

Get a written price

Priced from what you send when that is enough, inspected first when it is not. Scope in writing before anything starts.

We build it

Crews arrive on the agreed date, build to the drawings, and raise anything that conflicts with them instead of improvising.

One contractor throughout

No handover to a second trade halfway, and no gap for the job to fall into. The people who quoted it finish it.

Service areas

Across Greater Sydney.

Based in the south-west and working right across the basin. Each area page covers the work that actually comes up there.

FAQ

Questions we get every week

Three: carpentry, concrete and guard rail. Carpentry covers formwork, structural framing and remedial timber. Concrete covers slabs, driveways, paths and repairs including concrete cancer. Guard rail covers safety barriers, bollards, wheel stops, handrails and balustrades.
Both. We run carpentry, formwork and concrete packages as a subcontractor inside a builder's programme, and we work directly for commercial property, strata schemes and homeowners. The standard is the same either way. Only the paperwork and the scheduling change.
Greater Sydney, with most of our work through the south-west and western corridors: Liverpool, Moorebank, Bankstown, Fairfield, Parramatta, Penrith, Blacktown and the growth areas around Camden. If a job sits outside our range we will say so on the first call.
We carry public liability insurance and applicable trade licensing, with certificates supplied on every quote. Where a job needs a licence class or a certification we do not hold, we say so up front instead of working around it.
Straightforward jobs can be priced from good photos and dimensions. Anything involving structure, existing concrete or unknown substrate gets an inspection first, because a quote for work nobody has looked at is a guess with a number on it. Either way you get a written price with the scope stated, not a number on its own.
The three trades we run are the three that keep meeting each other. Formwork and concrete are the same job from two ends. A spalled balcony edge and the balustrade going back into it is one job that usually gets split between two contractors. We removed the handover, and the argument about who owns the gap.
