Our Process:
From First Conversation to
Final Handover
Every Morris Homes project follows a structured 12-step process designed to protect your budget, your timeline, and your experience. No guesswork. No surprises. Just a clear path from enquiry through to the keys in your hand.
Step 1
Initial Enquiry
Step 1:
Initial Enquiry
Contact Morris Homes directly via website, social media, or referral. Every project starts with a conversation.
Step 2
Project Discovery
Book a one-on-one discovery session with Brad to align on project goals, budget, site conditions, timeline, and design direction.
Step 3
Feasibility and Budgeting
We complete a detailed desktop feasibility assessment at no cost, identifying site constraints, council considerations, and project viability upfront.
Step 4
Design
An obligation-free pathway to convert your ideas into compliant preliminary drawings, enabling realistic building estimates without pricing guesswork.
Step 5
Estimate and Tender
Detailed trade take-offs, bills of quantities, allowance schedules, and project budgeting. Our tender aligns directly with our trade reporting systems. A small fee applies because accurate estimating deserves proper attention.
Step 6
Client Selections
Clients receive the Morris Homes Client Selections Handbook. Maree works closely with you to finalise all fittings and fixtures before contract signing, minimising variation risks during construction.
Step 7
Approvals
Nick and the project management team oversee DA approvals, CDC approvals, engineering coordination, and authority approvals, all tracked through BuilderTrend.
Step 8
Fixed Price Contract
We enter a HIA Fixed Price Contract only after plans are finalised, selections are completed, approvals are in place, and budget clarity exists. This protects everyone.
Step 9
Construction
Every project is individually scheduled in BuilderTrend. Clients receive scheduling visibility, progress photos, variation tracking, communication updates, and site inspection opportunities.
Step 10
Handover
Once practical completion is reached, we organise final inspections, occupation certificates, client walkthroughs, and a final defect list. All outstanding items are addressed before completion.
Step 11
Maintenance Period
A 3-month maintenance check after handover. Clients note any concerns during the first 3 months and our team addresses each item to ensure the home continues performing exactly as intended.
