OUR BUILDING PROCESS EXPLAINED.
Providing an alternative, superior solution to the traditional old-style brick and tile home has been the centre of our focus since inception. The result is a tried and tested building process using what we call the Norfolk Wall System. Norfolk Homes are built faster, they're affordable and highly customisable, all the while providing exceptional thermal performance. Combining our unique streamlined building process with our team of experts allows us to continually deliver energy efficient, high performance homes without the excessive price tag.

OUR ECO-SMART ETHOS.
Building energy efficient, sustainable homes in our eyes is a major investment not just for the environment, but for you personally. With rising resource costs and the critical issue of climate change becoming increasingly apparent, it's more important than ever to commit to conscious construction practices. Our Eco-Smart, sustainable two storey homes aren't only better for the environment - they'll save you money up-front and in the long run by reducing ongoing energy consumption costs.
STRATA & MULTI-UNIT SPECIALISTS.
With urban sprawl becoming a bigger issue as populations grow, more and more areas are seeing subdivisions as a better way to utilise land. Our team specialises in designing solutions for strata & multi-unit developments and can provide guidance through every step of the process. Get the most value out of your block by planning ahead and maximising earning potential with intelligent design footprints customised to suit your block.
LOCALLY OWNED, SOURCED, BUILT.

The Modularis Group and Norfolk Homes are backed by the Wyllie Group as its major shareholder, ensuring we have ample resources and strength behind us. Have confidence being in the hands of a WA owned company that sources all materials and labour from trusted Western Australian based suppliers and contractors.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Once all of the contract documentation has been finalised and the building permit has been issued, construction of your new home can commence. The construction of a Norfolk home can be completed in as little as 6 months depending on the design. Thanks to our efficient rapid building techniques, Norfolk homes typically are completed in approximately half the time of a traditional double brick home.
Norfolk Homes services not only the Perth Metro area, but regional surrounds as far as Lancelin in the North to Augusta in the South. As a part of our sales process with Norfolk Homes, a member of our team will visit your site so we can provide an accurate evaluation of and quotation for your project.
Ultimately, we are committed to building simply better homes. The Norfolk Homes staff are committed to providing a level of client-focused service and quality that will deliver outstanding homes to our customers in Perth and the regional surrounds. We are dedicated to providing affordable, energy efficient, highly customisable housing solutions that outperform and are constructed in a fraction of the time taken by older traditional methods.
Unlike traditional double brick home, the majority of Norfolk Homes utilise a lightweight, energy efficient steel wall frame system. The steel framing components of the Norfolk Wall Systems are rapidly built in our Perth manufacturing facility using dedicated teams of skilled tradesmen in just a few days. While framing is being cut to size and assembled – without risk of site or weather interruptions - work can also be underway on your site in preparation for frame standing. Brickwork on the other hand, is time consuming, arduous, and requires siteworks to be finished prior to commencing.
As a low volume builder, we don’t take on more than we can handle. At Norfolk Homes our values are deeply seated in providing a personalised experience for our clients without compromising on the quality of the homes we’re building. Large conventional builders often stretch their teams beyond what is practical, which leaves room for details to be missed and for clients to fall through the cracks. At Norfolk, each home gets a dedicated construction supervisor that visits your home regularly to undertake stringent quality control inspections. This allows us to ensure every step is completed to the highest possible standards.
Once again the short answer is yes, absolutely! Part of our sales process includes 1-on-1 design consultation to ensure your home works perfectly with your block. We’ll also ask if you have any specific design requests. At Norfolk Homes we encourage you to put your own personal touches into the design and don’t believe in ‘cookie cutter’ homes. After all it is your home, so we understand how important it is to get it right! Modify one of our existing designs or even bring in a DIY sketch and we’ll create one from scratch. Anything is possible with Norfolk Homes.
Absolutely! While double storey homes are our specialty, contact our sales team today and we can get a design started for you. With duplexes, triplexes, or multi-unit/strata developments, we’ll assess your site and make sure we maximise your investment return potential by designing for your block.
Challenging blocks are often the most rewarding projects – and we specialise in narrow or house-behind-house solutions. All of our designs can be tweaked or adjusted as required, and if your block is particularly difficult we’ll draw up something custom to suit.
Norfolk Homes uses only high quality, locally sourced materials when constructing our homes. We don’t cut corners or use any inferior products despite providing a rapid building service. Time is saved as a result of our Norfolk Wall System combined with our attentive team’s outstanding project planning efficiency.
Yes! Norfolk Homes has access through its preferred suppliers to the latest range of building products and fittings and fixtures. Our standard specification is full of high quality materials sourced from local Western Australian suppliers and manufacturers.

In general, a building permit, granted by a permit authority (generally the local Shire Council), is required before building work can be carried out. Anyone can apply for a building permit, the owner, builder, designer, building surveyor or any other person. The applicant provides details of the person responsible for the work, ie the builder, in the application form. The builder takes responsibility for ensuring the construction complies with the applicable building standards and the provisions in the building permit.
Yes. We will arrange the building permit and water corporation approval as part of your standard contract and we can assist with or complete applications for septic systems and planning approvals where required/applicable. We can also provide assistance or guidance with strata/subdivision approvals and permits for multi-unit developments.
Yes, and of course you can! We would encourage you to use your preferred bank or finance provider. Alternatively you can speak to one of our preferred mortgage brokers who can help you every step of the way.
