At Key Housing Group, we understand that no two building journeys are the same. If your home build has been delayed, disrupted or left unfinished; a project takeover could be the solution to help you move forward with confidence. Whether your builder has stepped away or things simply haven’t gone to plan, our experienced team is here to step in, assess the situation and guide your project through to completion, with care and expertise.

What Is a Project Takeover?
A project takeover is when a new contractor or construction team steps in to finish a residential building project that is already started but not finished. This situation can happen for different reasons, such as major delays in construction or if the original builder is unable to continue the work.
The reasons for a project takeover can be complex and varied. For instance, delays may arise from supply chain issues, labor shortages or unexpected site conditions that were not accounted for during the initial planning stages. The sudden unavailability of a builder can leave homeowners at a standstill, prompting the need for a reliable alternative to step in and take over the responsibilities.
A project takeover serves as a solution to ensure that residential building projects are completed, despite the challenges that may arise during the construction process. It provides homeowners with an opportunity to continue their projects with a new contractor that can see their build through to completion.

What You Can Expect with a Project Takeover
Project takeovers often come with more complexity than a standard new build, as they involve navigating existing structures, understanding previous decisions and addressing any unforeseen issues that may arise from prior work. This multifaceted nature of takeovers requires a keen eye for detail and a thorough understanding of construction practices, regulations and best practices.
At Key Housing Group, we aim to make the project takeover transition as seamless and as streefree as possible by providing tailored support and solutions to every project. Our dedicated team is committed to understanding your specific needs and developing a clear action plan to bring your home build through to completion. This action plan includes a realistic timeline, budget overview and strategies for addressing any existing issues, such as construction quality or project delays.
Each project takeover begins with a thorough site visit, where we assess existing plans, approvals and completed work. This evaluation helps us identify the project's strengths and weaknesses, allowing us to determine our next steps. We then work with you to create a detailed roadmap outlining the necessary steps to get your project back on track, leading to successful project completion.
Throughout the entire process, we work closely with you, fostering open lines of communication to ensure your expectations are aligned with the finished result. We understand that your home is a reflection of your personal style and standards, which is why we prioritise your input at every stage of the project.
