Patterson Built

What Patterson Built does

Patterson Built is a family-owned construction company founded around 2000 by Grant Patterson and headquartered in Kenthurst, Sydney. The business transitioned in 2014 into a premium custom home builder serving affluent owner-occupiers across Sydney's north-west suburbs — Kenthurst, Dural, Hawkesbury, Hills, Hornsby, and the Blue Mountains — with stated willingness to operate NSW-wide on application. It offers four core construction services: architect-designed custom new homes, high-end renovations and extensions, knockdown rebuilds, and (via its wholly-owned Patterson Pools subsidiary) custom concrete pools, spas, and landscaping. The company deliberately limits the number of projects accepted each year to preserve service quality and direct Managing Director engagement.

The operating model is a design-and-construct service delivered in collaboration with Sydney architects and managed end-to-end under MBA contracts. Pricing is custom-quote-based, determined by project size, design complexity, inclusions and finishes, and land characteristics; revenue is earned as project-based one-off contracts across the four service lines. The company is supported by a small named leadership team — Managing Director Grant Patterson, Construction Manager Adrian Ashton (joined November 2015), Business Manager Melanie Patterson, Business Development and Office Manager Catherine Magazzu, and Estimator and Contracts Administrator Devikumar Bhogavelli (joined September 2022) — and holds NSW Builders Licence 277084C with a 6-year structural guarantee on builds.

In 2022 Patterson Built extended its model into building-systems distribution by becoming the authorized Australian distributor for Panelok, an internationally patented Structural Insulated Panel (SIP) system using BlueScope TrueCore steel framing. Panelok opens a separate B2B channel supplying complete structural packages — wall panels, floor systems, roof trusses, fixings, and finishing products — to builders, architects, and developers across Australia, with stated benefits of approximately half the conventional build time and 8–10 star energy ratings. The company markets primarily through a HubSpot-tracked website, organic social (Facebook, Instagram), SEO targeted at Sydney's north-west suburbs, and a strong customer-testimonial and referral flywheel built on multiple Master Builders Association and HIA award wins.
