Why Paying for Quality is the Best Investment When You’re Building a New Home

29 Proudlock 01
The old adage, “you get what you pay for” is particularly relevant when it comes to building
your dream home.

In the year of 2020, the global pandemic has dictated much of your movements, which has seen many people give away their travel plans while they focus closer to home.

What’s really important has become paramount as many people look at the four walls of their living spaces and consider how to maximise the enjoyment of simply being at home with their loved ones.

With this in mind, there is more to consider than cost alone when building a beautiful custom home on the Gold Coast.  The joy of an exceptional home is always in the eye of the beholder, which means no two custom homes will ever look the same.

The connection between
price and sustainability

If you’re focussed only on saving money by cutting corners when building, you’re likely to pay for it in other ways.

Cost is entwined with sustainability when you consider that focussing solely on the cheapest option today means you’ll likely be replacing it tomorrow, whereas choosing quality products, materials and finishes will provide greater longevity.
For example, eliminating the risk of waste by using premium products that are built to last goes a long way towards sustainability.

Also, custom designing a green home that is built to take advantage of the natural environmental influences may be the more expensive option initially, yet will save you money in the long-term, especially when it comes to the harnessing of natural resources and energy conservation.

Cheaply made products often use poor-quality materials and can be manufactured using more chemicals, plastics and synthetic resins, which are harmful to the environment.

Eco-friendly production methods and workers’ compensations, such as safe working conditions and acceptable pay, contribute to the overall cost of building a quality custom home.

Upfront price vs long-term savings

When you consider the amount of time and money spent on potential repairs and replacements, along with the stress of having something go wrong or an item breaking in future, it should affect your decision around whether or not to pay more for a product or service, especially when designing and building a custom home.

If you want to avoid having to cut corners when you’re designing and building a custom home, make sure you plan ahead with a savings strategy that encompasses your predicted budget and includes better quality materials and service. In the end, how much of a bargain are you really getting when you could be tossing away an item in just a few years, rather than ‘buying it for life’?

Outdated requirements

Many older homes were built to a particular style or fashion that doesn’t encompass the needs of many homeowners today. Australians, and Queenslanders in general, love entertaining outdoors, so alfresco kitchens and expansive covered patios are often sought-after aspects of many homes on the property market.

Open-plan living is a hugely popular feature of modern homes, as well as the stylised custom design of soaring tinted, floor-to-ceiling windows to maximise natural lighting while keeping 99% of harmful UV rays at bay.

Safety first

Structurally, a brand-new home brings years of enjoyment without anything needing to be replaced or repaired for many years to come. Custom prestige builders use high-quality materials and guarantee exceptional workmanship that incorporates durability as well as beautiful styling.

A brand-new custom home by Bounds Constructions comes with supplier warranties for all appliances and materials used within the making of your home. Our modern homes enjoy state-of-the-art safety equipment, such as cutting-edge smoke detectors, CCTV solutions and digital security access.

Knowing you’re the very first family to live within the walls of your beautiful brand-new bespoke home affords a special kind of peace of mind.
