Home / SmartSpecs
Take greater control of your build and your budget with SmartSpecs – a flexible alternative that lets you choose the inclusions you need and manage selected finishing touches your own way.
Not everyone needs – or wants – a completely turnkey home. You might already have your own suppliers, want to organise selected works yourself, or simply prefer to put more of your budget towards the things that matter most to you.
SmartSpecs gives you that flexibility. Rather than paying for a complete turnkey specification, you can choose a more streamlined DBN build and take responsibility for selected items yourself. It’s a practical way to create a home that better reflects your priorities, preferences and budget.
SmartSpecs can be a great option if you’re looking for opportunities to reduce your upfront build cost or have particular ideas about how you’d like to finish your home.
By removing selected inclusions from the standard turnkey offering, you have the freedom to source, arrange or complete agreed items independently – giving you greater control over both your selections and your spending.
Choose a specification that better suits the way you want to build.
Source selected finishes or features independently to create the look you want.
Choose to take care of certain finishing elements yourself after the DBN build is complete.
Avoid paying for selected inclusions you would prefer to organise yourself.
Where agreed with DBN, arrange selected elements through your preferred suppliers or trades.
Enjoy the same DBN approach to the construction of your home, with greater flexibility around inclusions.
