Building or renovating a home is one of the biggest investments you'll make. Choosing the right team to guide you through the process is just as important as the final result. At Charlie Howard Constructions, we specialise in custom home builds, kitchen and bathroom renovations, and home extensions throughout the Goulburn Valley region. Every project is approached with function, collaboration, and care, from first drafts through to final handover.

We combine over a decade of building experience with a modern, client-focused approach. Whether you're expanding your family home, upgrading your kitchen, or starting from scratch, we'll help create a space that matches how you live now and into the future.

Experience Across Goulburn Valley

We operate across various parts of the Goulburn Valley, excluding Shepparton and Mooroopna. Many of these areas come with unique challenges such as unusual block shapes, rural access needs, council regulations or heritage overlays. We understand how to navigate these variables through experienced planning and a dedication to quality that doesn't waver based on location.

With each project, we bring the same commitment to communication, clarity, and craftsmanship. Our services include:

- Custom Home Builds tailored to your lifestyle and preferences

- Kitchen Renovations that add value and everyday functionality

- Bathroom Renovations combining comfort, layout, and design

- Home Extensions that feel seamless and natural

We never rely on standard solutions or cookie-cutter templates. Instead, we start with a clear conversation, understand your goals, and develop a plan with practical timelines and transparent communication built in from day one.

Areas Outside the City Centres

Living and building in the Goulburn Valley often means embracing space, adapting around land contours, and working with everything from bush blocks to older suburban homes. We know how to design around rural access routes, fit builds to sloped or irregular lots, and factor in variables like heat, wind, or seasonal conditions. We tailor every design to perform well in its environment while meeting your lifestyle needs.

We’ve forged strong working relationships with local architects, design consultants, and trades over the years. These connections allow us to source quality materials, move through approvals faster, and stay on top of everything from site planning to permit requirements. Being local gives us an edge in understanding the conditions and expectations that come with building in and around the region.

High-Performance Homes Designed for Real Living

High-performance building is at the core of what we do. Whether it’s a new home or a major extension, we focus on energy efficiency, insulation, airflow, and passive design principles to increase comfort and decrease ongoing running costs.

A well-designed home performs all year round. It stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter without relying heavily on artificial heating or cooling. We bring that mindset into the earliest stages of design. For example, one project outside the main town took advantage of its sun exposure while shielding rooms from harsh afternoon heat. Small changes in window placement and building orientation made a huge difference in long-term comfort and operating costs, without affecting the budget.

Performance-led decisions don’t need to be expensive. But they do need to be considered early and implemented properly. That’s where experience matters.

What You Can Expect When We Build

Our process is built to take the complexity out of construction. We support you every step of the way by setting up realistic expectations and maintaining clear, friendly communication from start to finish. No shortcuts, no guesswork, no disappearing during the build.

Here’s what you can expect with us:

- Clear milestones and well-communicated timelines

- Consistent updates with no industry jargon

- Meticulous attention to finish and built-in quality

- A design and build plan that suits your goals and budget

Some clients prefer to be involved every step of the way. Others want to hand over a brief and reappear at handover. Either way works for us. Our role is to support your decisions and tailor our approach so you always feel confident in what’s next.
