We take on the builds other builders walk away from, here's how we do it

Few things are more stressful than watching your dream home stall because your builder has gone into liquidation. The construction stops. The site sits there. And when you start calling other builders, most of them tell you the same thing, they won't take it on. Finding a reputable company willing to step into someone else's incomplete project is genuinely difficult, and the families left in that position often feel stranded, financially stretched, and completely unsure of what to do next.

That's exactly the situation Patterson Construction was built to handle.

We specialize in taking over part-completed home builds, and we've been doing it long enough to know that no two situations are the same. Whether your property is at slab stage, halfway through framing, nearing lock-up, or almost finished, our team can assess the work completed so far and build a clear, realistic plan to get your project across the line. We don't make assumptions about what's been done correctly. We look at everything, structure, compliance, workmanship, and tell you honestly what we find.

What that process looks like in practice is straightforward. We start with a thorough site assessment, no obligation, no sales pressure. We document the current state of the build, identify any defective or non-compliant work, and give you a clear picture of what completing your home will actually involve. Then we prepare a transparent, fixed-price quote so you know exactly what you're committing to before anything is signed.

Throughout the build you have one point of contact, a dedicated Journey Coordinator who knows your project inside and out. They keep you updated, answer your questions, and make sure you never feel like you're navigating this alone. Lucas personally oversees every takeover build, the same level of hands-on involvement he brings to every project we take on.

Our commitment is simple. We honour your original vision wherever possible. We minimise changes to your plans and your selections. We work efficiently to complete your home without sacrificing the quality of the finish. And we communicate openly at every stage, no surprises, no runaround.

If your builder has gone into liquidation or you've lost confidence in your current contractor, call Lucas today. We'll come out, assess your site honestly, and tell you exactly what's possible. You've waited long enough for your home, let's finish it properly.
