Horley Homes

Horley Homes is a Building and Construction company that has been operating on the Sunshine Coast since 2003. Don Horley is the Director, and is a licensed QBCC registered builder who has been building on the Sunshine Coast since 1994.

Being a local Sunshine Coast business, Horley Homes stakes its reputation on building homes with integrity, to a budget and a competitive price. We have the ability to construct inspiring homes to the personal satisfaction of the client, whilst using sustainable products, & just as importantly offering friendly customer service throughout the process.

When building a home, doing a renovation, adding an extension or installing your new swimming pool in time for summer, Horley Homes wants it to not just look fantastic, but compliment the environment… and most importantly be energy and cost efficient.

Horley Homes is one of the few building companies who can claim that their Director, Don Horley, still “works on the tools” occasionally when able and can provide the client with an accurate progress report on all aspects of the building project at a moment’s notice.

Don is very approachable and happy to meet with his clients on site to discuss any concerns. Equally important is Don’s meticulous attention to detail and finishes. Every home built by Horley Homes is constructed with the level of care and foresight you would want from the person entrusted with creating your dream home.

Foresight and attentiveness only comes from experience, and Don brings with him a wealth of knowledge he can implement to enhance your project or suggest alternative, cost-saving building procedures.

Horley Homes would love the opportunity to provide you with a free quotation for your next project and meet with you personally to discuss your special requirements.

“Don Horley is an exceptional quality builder and a pleasure to deal with.

Don built our hardwood pole home in 1995 and his attention to detail and professionalism was outstanding. So when we decided to do a large extension in 1999 we didn’t hesitate in choosing Don for the job.

We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a builder. Thanks Don to you and your exception trades."

Gary and Erica Quinn

“Don's ability to understand, visualise and build solutions is rapid and considered. His advice to both sub-contractors and clients has always impressed me. To find a Builder with a passion for quality that can exceed the Architects design intent, as Don has is rare.”

Rupert & Tracey Standing

“The final product was quite an improvement on the design with which we started out and the house is a building of which the whole family is extremely proud. It is also an impressive addition to the streetscape which includes a number of million dollar plus homes.”

“We owned an old fibro shack at Peregian Beach on the dune over looking the ocean. Don quickly and efficiently picked up the brief and built our new home on time and within the budget. We would recommend to anyone contemplating building that Don Horley would be the man for the job.”
