Difficult and sloping site specialists
Building on a difficult site?
Get the difficult decisions right before construction starts.
Sloping blocks, constrained access and complex sites demand more from your builder. Have SBS review your plans for site challenges, cost risks and buildability before you tender or commit to construction.

A more complex build requires a different approach
Complex sites. Considered construction.
The most expensive mistakes on a difficult site often happen before a shovel hits the ground. Engineering, access, retaining and drainage decisions need a builder at the table early, while changes are still relatively easy.
Access. Retaining. Engineering. Drainage. Buildability.
Real challenges. Real solutions.

Project case study
From a challenging site to an exceptional home.
This coastal site had a steep slope, restricted access and limited space for materials. Through early planning, detailed engineering and careful sequencing, the home was delivered with a clear process and a confident outcome.
The challenge
Steep slope, restricted access and tight site constraints.
The SBS approach
Detailed engineering, innovative access solutions and phased construction.
The result
An exceptional architectural home that makes the most of the site and the view.
