What do Overland Builders do?
What we build in Hobart and Southern Tasmania
Overland Builders focuses on projects where good design, careful detailing and performance really matter. We work with clients and architects on new homes, extensions and renovations across Hobart and surrounds, with a particular strength in connecting old homes to new additions and lifting the performance of existing buildings.
High performance homes for Hobart’s climate
Tasmanian weather asks a lot of a home, so we use high performance principles and Passive House inspired design to create spaces that feel steady and comfortable year round. By focusing on insulation, window specification, airtightness and thermal bridging from the early stages, we help achieve warmer interiors in winter, cooler and more stable temperatures in summer, lower energy use and quieter, calmer rooms. We work closely with your architect and energy consultant to test options and ensure the design performs as intended.
A collaborative builder for architect designed homes
Many of our projects are architect designed homes, extensions and connections between old and new. Architects trust Overland Builders to respect the design intent while providing clear, practical advice on buildability, sequencing and cost. We join design meetings, offer early cost input through ECI and work with the wider consultant team so details are resolved before work reaches site. The result is a smoother build with fewer surprises and a home that looks and performs as intended.
A Hobart based team focused on long term homes
Directors Tom and Cam bring extensive experience across architect designed homes, complex extensions, detailed renovations and commercial projects. Their design focus, integrity and commitment to quality craftsmanship with locally sourced materials have earned them a strong reputation in the Hobart building community.
