Building in Albany: Why Patterson Construction Expanded to the Great Southern
At Patterson Construction, growth has never been about simply building more homes, it has always been about building in the right places, for the right communities. Expanding into Albany and the wider Great Southern region was a natural next step for us, driven by demand, opportunity, and a genuine appreciation for the lifestyle and landscape that make this part of Western Australia so unique.
Albany and the Great Southern continue to attract families, professionals and retirees seeking space, affordability and quality of life without compromising on amenities. With strong infrastructure, beautiful coastlines, thriving local businesses and a welcoming community spirit, the region offers everything people are looking for when they decide to build their forever home or invest in property.
We recognised early that many people relocating or upgrading within the region were looking for a builder who could deliver metropolitan-level quality, communication and transparency while still understanding local conditions and lifestyle expectations. That alignment made the decision to expand an easy one.
Patterson Construction has built its reputation on delivering high-quality homes with a focus on craftsmanship, clear communication and personalised service. Our award-winning approach is not about volume it is about precision, relationships and long-term value for our clients.
By expanding into Albany, we are bringing the same design excellence, construction standards and client-first philosophy that have defined our work across Western Australia. Our clients in the Great Southern deserve the same level of service and attention to detail that has earned Patterson Construction its strong reputation.
One of the key reasons we felt confident expanding into the Great Southern is our experience in projects that require creative thinking and technical expertise. Many blocks in regional areas are not standard — they may be sloping, irregular in shape, coastal, or located in developing estates with unique requirements.
Patterson Construction specialises in:
New custom homes tailored to lifestyle and location
Unit and multi-dwelling developments for investors and growing families
Irregular and challenging blocks where smart design and planning make all the difference
Rather than seeing complexity as a barrier, we see it as an opportunity to design smarter, maximise land potential and create homes that truly fit their environment.
Expanding into Albany is also about contributing positively to the local economy. Wherever possible, we work with local trades, suppliers and consultants, ensuring that our projects support regional businesses and create ongoing employment opportunities. Building homes is only one part of what we do building relationships and strengthening communities is equally important.
Homes in the Great Southern are different. They are shaped by views, climate, outdoor living and connection to nature. Our design approach considers these factors from the outset — orientation for natural light, energy efficiency, wind protection, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow are all essential elements in the homes we create in this region.
Our expansion into Albany is not a short-term project or a trial, it is a long-term commitment. We are here to build lasting relationships, deliver exceptional homes and become a trusted name within the Great Southern community.
For clients considering building a new home, developing units, or making the most of an irregular block, Patterson Construction offers experience, transparency and award-winning quality backed by a genuine passion for creating spaces people love to live in.
The Great Southern is growing, and we are proud to be growing with it.
