Building More Than Homes: Our Commitment to Community in Albany and the South West

At Patterson Construction, being a trusted builder in Albany and across Western Australia is about far more than delivering well-built homes and quality projects. It is about the role we play within the communities we build in and the responsibility that comes with that position. Community matters to us because strong communities are the foundation of everything that lasts.

Our involvement in community initiatives is never about recognition or bragging rights. It is driven by a genuine desire to contribute to the places we live and work and to support the people who make those places special. If we are building in a community, we believe it is important to also be involved in that community in meaningful and practical ways.

With our recent expansion into the South West, and particularly into Albany, our focus has been on more than growth alone. From the outset, we wanted to ensure that Patterson Construction became part of the fabric of the local area rather than simply operating within it. That means forming relationships, supporting local organisations and contributing to the wellbeing of the wider community.

This is why we are proud to sponsor the Albany Surf Life Saving Club. As a coastal town, Albany relies heavily on surf life saving services to keep beaches safe for locals and visitors alike. These clubs play an essential role in protecting lives while also building confidence, leadership and connection within the community.

What makes organisations like the Albany Surf Life Saving Club truly remarkable is that much of their work is carried out by volunteers. These individuals give their time, energy and skills selflessly, often balancing family, work and other commitments to serve the community. Their efforts are the backbone of so many vital services, yet they rely heavily on support from local businesses and residents to continue their work.

Every contribution helps. Whether it is financial sponsorship, volunteering time or simply getting involved, these acts of support allow organisations to invest in equipment, training and resources that ultimately benefit the entire community. As a local builder in Albany, we see this as a responsibility rather than an obligation.

Through our involvement, we hope to lead by example and encourage others to support the causes they care about. Strong communities are not built by one organisation alone. They are built when businesses, volunteers and residents work together with a shared sense of purpose and pride.

Community support creates a ripple effect. One contribution inspires another, and together those efforts strengthen the places we call home. That is something we are passionate about fostering as we continue to grow in Albany and across the South West.

We are proud to be working alongside the Albany Surf Life Saving Club and look forward to sharing our involvement throughout the year. As Patterson Construction continues to grow as a builder in Albany and the South West, our commitment to community will remain central to who we are and how we operate.

Because at Patterson Construction, building strong foundations is not just about bricks and mortar. It is about people, relationships and giving back to the communities that support us.
