Why Blackett
When you choose to work with Blackett, you choose to work with a company with an enduring reputation for quality, trusted by Canberra families since 1981.
Over the last four decades, we’ve grown from a small company to one of Canberra’s longest-standing residential builders, delivering over 3,000 homes to Canberra families just like yours.
We believe this growth can be credited to the quality of our work, our family values and our deep passion for building within the Canberra community.
Our values
As a family-owned and operated business, we hold family values at the core of everything we do. With a high-rate of repeat business and referrals, our customers and suppliers tell us they appreciate these values too.

Our team will be transparent from our first meeting, right through to the handover. This includes being completely open about what’s achievable within your budget and expected building times. We will keep you up to date at all times as changes occur during the build, ensuring you’re informed every step of the way.
-
We firmly believe your home should be designed to last for a lifetime. That’s why we pride ourselves on ensuring every aspect of your new home is built to the highest quality. From the materials we use to the professionals we employ to bring your home to life, when you build with us, quality is maintained each and every step of the way.
-
We value our environment and undertake green building actions within every project we work on. We work to consciously make our sites as eco-friendly as possible and commit to continual improvement of our practices over time.
