The Lekeal process

Where does Lekeal build?

We build quality custom homes in the regions of Albury-Wodonga, Yarrawonga-Mulwala and Wangaratta. We cover a huge area across northern Victoria and southern New South Wales, so feel free to get in touch to see if we can service your desired location. 

They are all such beautiful places to live! We also offer house and land packages at thriving estates based in Yarrawonga.

Experience

Our dedicated team has been building quality custom homes around northern Victoria and southern New South Wales since Lekeal was founded in 2003 by Yarrawonga local builder Ken Stevenson.

Ken and his team have many years of domestic building experience and their understanding of local communities, businesses and tradespeople has seen Lekeal grow into one of the region’s most sought-after and reliable custom home builders.

Builders get a bad rap sometimes. Not so with Lekeal — we are always upfront and honest with our clients about the costs and expectations associated with your new home. Our quotes include everything from the outset: soil tests, energy ratings, blinds, landscaping, you name it. A full turn-key approach. Our reputation as a local builder you can trust means the world to us.

Flexibility

Lekeal builds quality custom homes that are tailored to every client’s budget and dream ideas. You may already have plans and just need a quote, or perhaps you’re starting from a tiny idea? You can build on your own block of land or purchase a Lekeal house and land package to create a really unique lifestyle. It’s entirely up to you!

Quality

Lekeal is renowned for our high level of quality craftsmanship. This has led to awards in the field such as Victorian Custom Home Builder of the Year 2015, and more recently Regional Residential Builder of the Year in the 2017 North East Master Builders Regional Building Awards. Don’t think this makes us unaffordable though—no matter what your budget is, we always promise a high-quality result.
