A Genius Home Built by Registered Master Builders

With Genius Homes becoming part of the Laing Properties family, we are pleased to announce that clients now have the peace-of-mind that their building project will be managed by a Registered Master Builder*.

Master Builders are backed by a trusted brand and build quality homes and buildings that last. They represent the best of the industry and uphold the highest standards. 

By choosing a Genius Home, you are choosing quality that which comes with a home built by a Master Builder. To become a Master Builder, certain quality criteria must be met. This includes:

  • Building experience
  • Trade and professional qualifications
  • On-site management experience
  • Workmanship: previous clients have been contacted to ensure their work is of a high standard and has satisfied their expectations
  • Financial responsibility: written references have been provided from their bank, accountant and building material suppliers.

And only a Master Builder can offer residential clients** the benefits which come with a 10-Year Master Build Guarantee, an optional cover which gives clients additional protection against loss of deposit, non-completion, materials and workmanship, structural defects, temporary accommodation and more!
