Extensive construction experience

Registered with the Master Builders Association of Victoria and the Victorian Building Authority, the Equisent Construction division has worked on projects from $1m to $500m.

What we build

Our University educated management team have formulated their construction and project management skills from many years in top tier international construction firms.

Multi-unit townhouse developments

Multi apartment developments with lift and basement carpark

Retirement villages, aged care facilities, medical clinics, NDIS disability accommodation

Unique architectural high-end projects

Subdivisions and small to medium sized commercial construction

Access to construction finance and Joint Venture opportunities

We have built projects ranging from single houses, to 42 apartments complexes, and 105 bed aged care facilities. We live and breathe the construction motto of time/cost/quality, with our overall focus on quality. It is very rare for a project to meet the expectations of all three, (ie the highest quality, at the cheapest cost, at the shortest time) however, we believe we are among the best in achieving the best outcomes overall.

Health Built

Healthcare, aged care and NDIS construction is now delivered under HealthBuilt, Equisent's design and construct brand.

Why we do not build to the cheapest price

It is a widely held myth that construction contracts should be determined mainly by price, and it is our strong belief that you get what you pay for. Most people do not buy the cheapest clothes, nor wear the cheapest shoes, nor drive the cheapest car they can afford. So why pick your builder by the cheapest price?

If you are not in the construction industry, you would not know the lengths some builders go to save costs: whether it is by substituting cheaper overseas sourced fittings and fixtures, halving insulation, or deliberately underquoting your job to win your business, and then slowly raising up the price through variations through the contract (or the worse: going bankrupt halfway through your project and re-emerging in a new company shell!).

The building industry needs more practitioners who understand the value of intelligent cost value analysis, and you should ask your builder to work with you in a joint partnered arrangement to give you the best quality for the best cost. Not the cheapest cost.

Equisent Constructions have the knowledge and the experience through years of professional construction consultancy to guide you through the maze of the construction process, providing guidance every step of the way. We work harmoniously with architects, designers, financiers, consultants, and developers and we can help you with your project.
