Custom Home Builder in Glen Waverley You Can Trust
Building in Glen Waverley
Glen Waverley is one of Melbourne’s most sought-after family suburbs, in the City of Monash, and land here is prized, especially inside the Glen Waverley Secondary College zone. With blocks at a premium, many owners choose to build the home they really want rather than move, whether that means a knockdown rebuild, a custom new home, or a major renovation.
We handle the permits, engineering and construction, with a director on your project from design to handover, so a high-value build is managed with the care it deserves.
Why Glen Waverley homeowners choose RAW
A custom home or rebuild in Glen Waverley is a serious investment, and RAW is built around protecting it. Rod or Will runs your project personally, so quality, budget and timeline stay in the hands of the people whose name is on the business. We keep our project numbers low so that attention is never stretched thin.
RAW holds a five-star rating from its clients, and because a director runs every build, that standard holds on projects large and small. You can read the reviews on our testimonials page.
What it costs to build or rebuild in Glen Waverley
Costs depend on the scope of the build. As a guide, our custom new homes and knockdown rebuilds start from around $600,000 and rise with size and finish, while renovations and extensions start from around $350,000.

We agree a fixed budget and timeline before construction starts, so a major investment stays under control.
