Build Only – Head Contractor Delivery – ArcAbodes.com.au

Build Only – Head Contractor Delivery

ArcAbodes delivers Build Only projects as the licensed Head Contractor, constructing residential projects using client-supplied documentation.

This service is suited to clients who already have completed architectural and consultant drawings and are seeking a builder with strong delivery capability, coordination discipline and cost control.

Clear Responsibility. Professional Delivery.

For Build Only projects, ArcAbodes is engaged solely as Head Contractor under an MBAV New Homes or Home Improvement Contract.

  • All trades and subcontractors.
  • Construction sequencing and site management
  • Consultant coordination during construction
  • Programme, quality, and compliance
  • Safety, insurances, and statutory obligations

Design responsibility remains with the client’s appointed consultants. Construction responsibility sits entirely with ArcAbodes.

What Build Only Includes:

  • Construction delivery based on client-supplied plans

  • Trade pricing and subcontractor engagement

  • Construction programme and sequencing

  • Site management and supervision

  • Quality control and compliance management

  • Safety, insurances and statutory obligations

Domestic Building Insurance (DBI) is provided where required.

 

Design responsibility remains with the client’s appointed consultants. Construction responsibility sits entirely with ArcAbodes.

This clear separation ensures:

  • No design ambiguity

  • No overlap of responsibility

  • No blurred contractual risk

How Build Only Differs From Design & Construct

Design & Construct

  • Builder leads design + delivery

  • Two-stage process (design — build)

  • Scope and cost locked pre-build

Build Only

  • Builder delivers construction only

  • Single construction contract

  • Relies on client documentation

If documentation is incomplete or cost certainty has not been established, Pre-Construction Services may be required first.

ArcAbodes operates primarily across Inner Melbourne suburbs, delivering projects where early coordination, buildability input, and delivery control are critical.
