About Group 4
Small team. Big standards.
A family-run Canberra builder with more than two decades of experience, and a director who is on the tools every day.
“Charl is a perfectionist who loves building and does it very well. He's one of the few builders who still likes to get his hands dirty on site to make sure the job gets done right.”
Group 4 Construction Pty Ltd has been operating in Australia since 2016. We strive to do a great job with genuine attention to detail, and as a local builder with over 24 years of experience in residential projects, we service Canberra and the surrounding areas.
We're a small, family-run business. That means you deal directly with the people building your home, with no layers of project managers and no hand-offs.
We take pride in our workmanship, from the first earthworks on site to the last bit of painting, to deliver a beautifully built home that will stand the test of time. Every job starts with a detailed, line-by-line tender estimate so there are no financial surprises towards the end of the project.
We like to work closely with the architect and home owner to make sure we meet your requirements the first time. We can also help design a home that is functional and suits your family's needs.
