About: Years of Experience and Projects Completed
Between the founders—Matt as a registered builder and Nic and Andrew as electrical contractors and private developers—we have over 50 years of combined experience in the construction industry. This includes tackling complex challenges for clients, along with personal development projects both domestic and commercial. Collectively, we’ve built over 150 homes. Simpod Sustainable Living is a result of these years of experience, market insights, and a dedication to delivering quality without compromise. Our team lives and breathes sustainability, aiming to provide off-grid, luxury living solutions. The end goal is to offer passive, sustainable living, without sacrificing the comforts of modern luxury. We also offer in-house drafting and a fully vertically integrated business model.
