Our Services

At Thorne Group our team’s expertise extends across a range of areas and is the result of many years of experience in the industry. We can offer advice and guidance regardless of the type of project or what stage you are at in your journey.

Architecture + Build Service

It’s a FREE SERVICE we offer to support clients who want to build well — with the right team around them from the outset. Here’s what you receive: - No obligation site assessment – Aaron or Gavin will personally visit, review your site and property file and offer advice based on their decades of land development and construction experience. This early due diligence can help identify possible geotechnical or compliance issues and requirements relating to earthworks, slope and hazard management and retaining, as well as opportunities to maximise the site’s potential. - Brief creation and budget setting – We can help you shape and refine your brief and offer practical insight into how different structural choices can affect cost and complexity. We will guide you in setting a realistic budget and timeframes to complete your project. - Architect connection – Choosing the right design partner is critical. We can introduce you to one (or more) of our trusted design partners, or we’re equally happy to work alongside your preferred architect. Note – architectural design fees are quoted separately. - Collaborative teamwork – We want you to benefit from our knowledge and experience. We will work closely alongside the architect, attending design meetings as required providing input on construction methodologies and feasibility, to ensure the most efficient use of materials and labour. - Realistic pricing – We believe in being upfront and realistic about costs and taking a ‘no surprises’ approach. As well as early and ongoing budget guidance, we will provide you with a full build proposal including comprehensive cost breakdown and specifications enabling you to move forward with confidence. This service is completely free. We want to learn about your project, understand your needs and goals and assemble the best team to help your project succeed. We will be there to support you for the duration of your project to ensure you get the best result possible.

Site Assessment & Advice

Whether you're looking to purchase a site or have owned a property for years, our team can help assess its potential, highlight any compliance considerations, and provide clear budget guidance for development, construction, or renovation. ​ With extensive experience in both land development and construction, we understand how to unlock a site’s full value—from navigating complex geotechnical conditions to recommending design elements and materials that work best in specific environments. We also help identify hidden costs early, ensuring smarter investment decisions. Our knowledge of council regulations, building code requirements, and real-world construction costs allows us to guide you on whether renovating, extending, or rebuilding will deliver the most practical and cost-effective outcome. And with full Project Management, we can coordinate everything from demolition to site prep—streamlining the process and saving you time and stress.

Our EXpertise

Coastal Construction

Coastal and waterfront construction comes with its own unique challenges requiring a refined approach.  Over the years we’ve developed systems for building in coastal environments that others are still working out - creating durable and resilient homes built to withstand the harshest of conditions.

Rural Construction

Building in rural areas requires expert knowledge in water systems, drainage, and sustainable living solutions.  Our expertise ensures your home is well-equipped to handle the unique challenges of rural environments.

Space Optimising

Building on small sites requires innovative space-saving solutions and smart design strategies.  We have decades of experience creating homes that make the most of limited space without compromising on style or functionality

Aging in Place

We’re seeing more people thinking ahead—not necessarily because they have specific needs now, but because they want to avoid major renovations in the future.

Dream Big

What sets Thorne Group apart? You feel part of a family, an exclusive club. People who have Thorne houses are very happy to talk about their experience with nothing but praise

Robin & Sarah

(Built 3 times with TG)

We had a very good experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better build.  We had so much trust in them, we were confident they weren’t fleecing us”

Ken & Gaye

Their reputation is very good, if we mention we have a Thorne Group house, people say ‘good choice’. I believe it adds value to our home and will to the sale price if/when we sell.

Kurt

Everyone onsite has an obvious respect for this company and want to do an excellent job to continue with that relationship.

Nic & Steve

I am proud to say that Thorne Group has done 3 builds for me! I had the privilege of top-class service, from start to finish nothing was ever a problem. I would not build with anyone else Thorne Group all the way

Vicky

We are delighted with the high-quality standard of finish in the house. Other builders, friends and family, regularly comment on it. We still get people knocking on our door wanting to know who built our house.
