Mulberry Homes offers a full design service from planning your home renovation project to engineering and architecture. Mulberry specialises in renovating older homes, usually working from Subiaco to Fremantle and more recently, Mount Lawley.

Proprietor Charles has tried a few alternatives to brick work, but has settled on using Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) for most home renovation work. Charles is happy to work from a home-owner's own renovation plans. The rough process of home renovation (or new build) goes from ;

• scheme drawings
• planning approval
• working drawings
• renovating / building the home

We spoke with Charles and asked him why he prefers to use SIPs panels over brick or other pre-built panel products . . .

Build a better home, with confidence.

Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs)

A Builder's take with Andrew Abercromby (Consortium Builders)

Andrew Abercromby qualified as a Civil / Environmental Engineer at UWA. He worked on engineering construction projects in Belgium and New Guinea and completed an MBA in France. Andrew was appointed Project Coordinator for an expansion to Sydney’s International Airport Terminal Building and then transferred to the UK and Switzerland to help integrate three European businesses. He now works in Perth, specialising in building homes with environmentally friendly products.

He recently completed WA’s first PassivHaus using our own structural insulated panels. Building a home in Cottesloe to international standards regarding energy efficiency and comfort was a great experience for Andrew.

Certificate of Conformity for SIPs Industries

Build with Confidence using Quality Australian Made SIPs Panels

The stringent quality systems in place for the manufacture of SIPs panels in Fremantle by SIPs Industries, ensures conformance with the strict CodeMark rules, gaining us certification renewal, through CertMark, annually.

The Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB), in conjunction with the Joint Accreditation System of Australia and New Zealand (JAS-ANZ), has been driving hard towards the implementation of the revised and improved CodeMark Australia Scheme.

Mirvac's "Green House"

We are proud to showcase the Mirvac Display Home in Osprey Waters. This project was the result of our collaboration with Mirvac to create a home using sustainable material and building processes.

The home will be used as the sales office for Mirvac located near Mandurah, and was constructed solely using our SIPs panels. The main bedrooms were also designed by celebrity renovators Matt & Kim, from "The Block".
