Every Great Knockdown Rebuild Starts With a Conversation
A knockdown rebuild gives you something a renovation never can... a clean slate.
But choosing who to rebuild your home with? That decision shapes everything.
You’ll be working with your builder for months, so the first step is making sure they’re the right fit.
Over a consultation, we’ll unpack:
- What’s realistic for your budget and growing family
- The timeframe for a knockdown rebuild in the Northern Rivers region
- Your site assessment requirements
- The key factors that make or break a knockdown rebuild project

For discerning homeowners who appreciate the finer details...
"Brett had me at 'how long is your towel?' when deciding on where to put towel rails. This attention to detail was present at every stage of our bathroom build. All the tradesmen who worked with Brett were also respectful and genuinely nice people to have around. Brett is a gem and I'm a little reluctant to share him as we have another project next year that we'd like him to work on. But sharing is caring."
Tracy Richardson
"Brett is a man of his word, reliable, talented, easy to work with, I love the work he has done for me."

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a knockdown rebuild in the Northern Rivers?
A knockdown rebuild is when you demolish your existing home or older home and build a brand new house on the same block of land.
It’s ideal when your current home no longer suits your lifestyle, your family home needs more living space, or a home renovation would cost more per square metre than a fresh start.
North Bay Building specialises in building modern coastal custom homes designed for Northern Rivers sites and lifestyle.
Does North Bay Building manage the entire knockdown rebuild process?
Yes. We handle the entire building process including site assessment, demolition, and full construction. Our expert team provides weekly updates, transparent pricing, and guidance from initial concept to handover. You get a smooth, structured build process led by a boutique builder who is on-site throughout.
Who else is involved in the knockdown rebuild process?
A successful knockdown rebuild requires more than just a builder. For a custom build in the Northern Rivers, North Bay Building works closely with a full team of specialists including: architects or draftsmen for your new home design, structural and civil engineers, land surveyors, and our on-site builder–project manager.
Together, this expert team ensures your knockdown rebuild meets design requirements, council regulations, and site conditions while delivering a seamless build process from concept to completion.
Can you build on tricky or narrow blocks?
Yes. Our custom-build approach works for sloped blocks, narrow sites, irregular parcels, and complex access locations. We design homes that maximise living space, natural light, and privacy, even on challenging land. This level of detail is what sets us apart as a leading home builder in the Northern Rivers region.
Do you build granny flats or additional dwellings?
Yes. If your zoning allows, we can include a granny flat, studio, or secondary dwelling as part of your new home design. These can support multigenerational living, guest accommodation, or rental potential; all integrated seamlessly with your main home design.
What areas do you service for knockdown rebuilds?
We build across the Northern Rivers region, including Byron Bay, Lennox Head, Bangalow, Ballina, and surrounds.
Why choose North Bay Building for a knockdown rebuild?
Because you work directly with your builder, not a sales rep. Brett is on-site, hands-on, and deeply involved in every detail. We build a limited number of homes each year, ensuring precision, communication, and award-winning homes delivered with care.
Our boutique approach means your home gets the attention it deserves, from concept to completion.
