About Buildr

Hi, I’m Sean Peillon,
the founder of Buildr.

I started Buildr after seeing how many homeowners struggle to choose the right builder — often making decisions without the information they need.

Before this, I worked as a carpenter, foreman, and site manager across both commercial and domestic projects in Melbourne, including some of the city’s largest builds. I’ve also worked as a project estimator, reviewing scopes and pricing in detail — and I’m currently completing my builder’s licence

My goal is simple:
To help you make confident, informed
decisions and protect your investment from
costly mistakes.

Frequenty Asked Questions

Do you work with specific builders?

No — we are completely independent and do not receive commissions from builders.

How do you save me money?

We save you money through competitive bidding and expert contract review. By pitting multiple vetted builders against each other, we drive down premiums. Additionally, our technical team identifies “padding” in quotes and prevents expensive variations or “hidden extras” that often crop up mid-build.

Is this only for large projects?

Not at all. While we handle major developments, our services are highly effective for home renovations, extensions, and custom new builds. Any project where a builder’s quote exceeds $50,000 can benefit significantly from our oversight and negotiation power.

What if I already have quotes?

That is actually a great place to start! We provide a Quote Audit service where we break down your existing estimates to check for discrepancies, missing line items, or overpricing. Often, we can use your existing quotes as a baseline to negotiate better terms or find a superior builder for the same price point.

Do you manage the project?

We offer different tiers of involvement. While our core service is pre-construction (vetting, bidding, and contracts), we can also provide site advocacy during the build. This involves periodic inspections and acting as a technical liaison between you and the builder to ensure the project stays on schedule and meets the agreed-upon standards.
