Building We love building! Our passion is for residential construction where there is a direct connection with you, the homeowner. We understand the responsibilities that come with renovating or building your dream home and appreciate the trust and respect that must be the foundation of the relationship between you and your builder. With this in mind, we aim to work closely with you to design and build a home that will enhance your life now and for many years to come and remain within your budget. We specialise in environmentally sustainable homes, where each home is individually tailored to suit its location and your requirements – not just a standard design with ‘green’ modifications thrown in. Environmental Sustainability With climate change a very real factor that will affect how we live in the years to come, it is becoming increasingly important to look to the future and shape our lives, and our homes, to suit the changes to come. We believe that our natural environment is worth protecting and that we have a responsibility when designing and building your home to minimise its present and future impact on our environment. We specialise in designing, building and renovating sustainable homes with the goal of creating carbon neutral homes that require minimal energy for heating or cooling. This approach reduces the reliance on fossil fuels and the harmful effects that their extraction and combustion have on our environment. Efficiency Our mission is to build environmentally sustainable homes in the most cost-efficient manner. We believe that building sustainable homes does not need to ‘cost the Earth’ financially or literally! We achieve this through careful planning and use of appropriate construction methods and techniques. Your home will be designed to function at maximum efficiency and minimal cost to you, without requiring the austere measures often associated with “going green”. The goal is to increase the quality of life for you and your family. With uncertain rising costs of grid supplied electricity and gas, the financial benefits of building sustainably will not only pay back your original investment far more quickly than you might think, but also continue to provide you with savings for many years to come. It will also add significant value to your property, future proofing your investment should you wish to sell your property in the future. The “Whole” It all needs to ‘make sense’. We look at your family’s lifestyle, energy needs and financial budget as a whole both now and in the future. Based on these factors we design and build, or renovate your existing property, to provide an efficient, sustainable home that is a joy to live in. The idea of the Earth as an integrated whole, or a living being, has a long tradition. This belief is reflected in our business name; Gaia was the mythical Greek goddess personifying the Earth – The Greek version of ‘Mother Nature”.
