Introduction to builders in Frankston

If you are looking for a builder in Frankston to take on your new home or renovation, the choice matters more than almost any other decision in the project. Prominent Builders is a boutique builder working across Frankston, Frankston South and the surrounding Peninsula suburbs, on custom homes, renovations and extensions.

Most builders in the area offer a similar list of services, so the list is not what separates them. What separates them is how they price the work and who turns up to run it. Josh is a registered builder and Nathanael is a qualified carpenter working toward his own registration, both still on the tools, and you see the trade quotes we see before anyone starts.

What we build in Frankston

  • Completed custom home clad in dark timber with a hardwood deck

    Custom homes

    Designed around how you actually live, from floorplan and facade through to materials and finishes. Getting that right at the drawing stage is what stops expensive changes later.

  • Renovated kitchen with a black undermount sink and gooseneck mixer

    Renovations, extensions and second storeys

    Kitchens, bathrooms and living areas modernised, extra bedrooms and master suites added, and second-storey additions where the block suits it and the view is worth going up for.

  • Hardwood deck stepping down to a landscaped coastal garden

    Outdoor living

    Decks, pergolas and outdoor zones built from materials that survive a coastal climate, so the space is usable well beyond summer.

  • Prominent Builders team on site in front of a timber-framed building

    Commercial, low rise

    We hold Commercial Builder Low Rise (CCB-L 100254), which covers shopfronts, offices, medical suites and hospitality fit-outs. Our completed work to date is residential, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise.

Frequently asked questions, builders in Frankston

What makes Prominent Builders different from other Frankston builders?
We price open-book. You see the trade quotes, allowances and every variation in writing before the work happens, rather than a single lump sum with a hidden margin. And you deal with the owners: Josh is a registered builder, Nathanael a qualified carpenter working toward his own registration, both still on the tools, and both on your site.
How much does it cost to build a custom home in Frankston?
It depends on the block, the design and your material selections, and any builder who gives you a number before seeing those is guessing. What we can promise is how you get the figure: we work through your brief and budget, then give you a written estimate built from real trade quotes you are welcome to read.
What renovation services do Prominent Builders offer?
Kitchens, bathrooms, opening up living areas, extra bedrooms and larger master suites, extensions, and second-storey additions where the block and the view justify going up. Smaller jobs are genuinely welcome too, on the same open-book pricing as a full renovation.
Is Prominent Builders registered and insured for building work?
Yes. We hold Domestic Builder Unlimited (CDB-U 75629) and Commercial Builder Low Rise (CCB-L 100254) with the Victorian Building Authority, and carry $20 million public liability cover. Domestic Building Insurance is taken out per project, as Victorian law requires above $16,000.
