IS A SLOPING BLOCK BAD? SLOPING BLOCK BUILDERS… NAVIGATING CHALLENGES
A lot of people are currently wondering, is a sloping block bad? Our answer is – absolutely not. Yes, it may come with challenges which don’t affect a flat block of land, although, it can also present many individual features for your future home & allow for outstanding architectural designs. Often, we are also given a beautiful view or outlook to capitalise on.
HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF A SLOPING BLOCK
Utilising the lay of your land provides us with direction for your design, allowing us to embrace what is already there.
Split level designs offer unique layouts and spaces, while potentially reducing earthworks, while strategically placed balconies can create ideal separation & creative entertaining zones.

COSTS
Is it more expensive to build on a sloping block? Finding the ideal piece of land is an exciting milestone in creating your dream home. However, beyond location and visual appeal, the land’s topography—its contours and elevation— can play a crucial role in construction costs.
Factors that increase the costs associated with a sloping block:
- Excavation & Earthworks
- Drainage Solutions
- Foundations
- Additional engineering requirements
There’s a reason we are often chosen as sloping block builders on the Sunshine Coast – we work with you to assess your land & create a design which is perfectly suited to you and your lifestyle.
