Bayside builders, building with you.
Meet the Founder, Darren
Littlefire Construction is a residential builder in Melbourne’s Bayside, building new homes, renovations, extensions, pergolas and decks for families across Bayside, the Mornington Peninsula and regional Victoria. We began as Littlefire Projects and have built our name on top-quality workmanship, reliable trades and clients who come back to us.
We collaborate with a range of architects, draftspeople and interior designers across Melbourne. Bring us your plans and we’ll build them as drawn, or ask us to introduce you to designers we trust.
Getting the builder involved early means buildable details, realistic costings and fewer surprises once work starts on site.
Our Services
New Build Homes
Custom homes, knock-down rebuilds and townhouses, built from your architect's or designer's plans. We are also the preferred Victorian builder for Imagine Kit Homes, a faster path to a quality steel-framed home.
Renovations
Extensions, additions and full renovations that make more of the home you love, Melbourne and Mornington Peninsula
Pergolas and Decks
Timber decks, pool decks and pergolas, built square, level and made to last. Made for long summers entertaining family and friends.
Smaller Additions
Smaller jobs built with the same care as a full build, from timber fences and gates to outdoor kitchens and small home additions.
