ABOUT US
The foundations for Demardi were being laid long before the company was formed. The bosses, Anthony and Michael, were school friends and mates for years before realising their building and engineering skills could be combined to bring something special to the Melbourne building scene. That kind of history makes being in business together, easy. And it shows in every part of the way we work at Demardi.
With authenticity, integrity and having a bit of fun driving everything we do, we’ve been able to create a building company that people trust and love to work with. We broke the mould when we started Demardi. Renovations, extensions and brand-new builds created fresh for each client are what we do best.
We prioritise values over volume. Even the smallest projects are important to us. From the technically difficult to the minor updates, we put our commitment and passion into each project.
We work with all trades on-site for the best possible outcome. And our experience means we know what works. We run a clean and tidy site and our quality and finishes are top-notch.
You’ll never hear us say “that’s just the way things are done around here”. We’re always looking for ways to improve the building experience for you. That means continually growing and evolving our team and the services we provide.
We believe that communication is king. That means, we’ll never keep you guessing what’s happening on-site or with your project. We keep you informed every step of the way, so you’ll be able to count down to move-in day with confidence.
SERVICES
Extensions & Renovations
Looking to renovate or extend your current home can feel like a big and scary process. But it doesn't have to be! Like any partnership it's about working together and solving problems. And that's exactly what we're good at. We take care of all the details, communicate with you on a daily basis if we need to and respond to any curve balls that come up along the way, and we all know there will be a curve ball or two! We bring decades of experience, professionalism, and passion into everything we do.
New Home Construction
Dreaming of a brand new home? But you're not sure which Builder is right for you...kinda like,needle in a hay stack. Well, it starts with first impressions and that is something we are proud of. We understand your home is a huge investment and that's why we put in the time to meet you, prepare a detailed quote (did I mention detailed!!) to get everything precise and ready for you.
Project Management
We are experts when it comes to project management, we have been doing this for years. Domestic renovations/extensions to brand new builds are no problem for us. Unlike most builders we have the capability to ensure projects run on time, we have the people, the experience and the know how to make it all happen. We are not a one man band.
OUR TEAM
From project management to problem-solving, each member of the Demardi team brings their own unique strengths. But we all share a common goal, getting the job done and getting it done right.
You can’t fake a workplace culture like ours. Our team love their work and it shows in everything we do.
No matter who you deal with at Demardi, you’ll always get professional, expert advice and workmanship, with a side of ‘happy to help’.
We’re a bunch of hard workers but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. Because we know that being professional and great at what we do doesn’t have to be boring.
People come to us for our exceptional building standards, and they stay for the chats and the smiles (seriously, that’s what they’ve told us).
MICHAEL
BOSS & BUILDER
Mick is a lifer in the building game. He took up an apprenticeship straight out of school and later became a registered builder. He’s the onsite whip-cracker, making sure each project runs on time and on budget without fail.
Mick doesn’t mind stirring up a bit of mischief with the team and he gets as good as he gives. But underneath that larrikin humour, getting the team home safe every day is what really drives him.
An experienced builder, Mick highly values the individual skills and unique perspective that each member of the team brings to Demardi’s projects.
A dad of girls, he’s outnumbered at home, but it helps bring out his softer side on the job site. He’s an outdoorsy guy who only needs beaches, camping, and a summer playlist to keep him happy.

Whether you are dealing with Mick himself, Anthony or anyone of their staff members - they are all professional, polite, attentive and easy going - nothing is too hard. Great energy to be around and to work with. In regards to building standards & code of conduct - top notch, full attention to detail and delivered on time with plenty of communication & smiles. Would I recommend Demardi - absolutely! In fact I'm inspired to keep building and will be looking for a future project. Stay tuned!"

Demardi have been an absolute pleasure to work with, and I cannot recommend Anthony, Mick and the team highly enough! Demardi was recommended to me via a number of different, and independent sources to assist me with my home and bathroom renovations, after much searching, looking for the right professionals who I felt I could investment my trust, vision and investment with. Over the preceding year and a half, I had sought guidance, feedback and pricing from a number of different sources, with whom I felt I was not able to build trust or rapport with as I was able to with the team at Demardi, who were patient, absolutely invested in the vision and outcomes down to the tiniest of detail and refinement, taking great pride in their work, the outcomes, and my needs as customer and client. They were reliable, followed up and researched as need be and as promised, met expectations, and made sure both their and my expectations were met from a quality, vision, and cost perspective, consulting and keeping me informed every step of the way. The project was undoubtedly a huge success in every regard, and I have confidence that not only will my bathrooms serve us well for many years to come, but also that Demardi will long be my trusted go to for all my building and renovation needs.

"We used Demardi for a major renovation to our family home in Doncaster and we are thrilled with the results. Demardi is a family run company who take pride in their work and care about their clients. Proper attention is also paid to paperwork, insurances, accounts and contracts which is so important. We had a wall removed which required the installation of a new beam to support the upstairs section of our house and the engineering inspector was very impressed with the quality of the work. We also inserted a wall and installed kitchen, new external door, windows and floor. There were a lot of complex decisions to make through the whole project but I felt very supported and encouraged by everyone at Demardi which was so refreshing. It’s an extremely difficult and complex job they do but they do it with patience and a smile and their clients’ best interests at heart. Be prepared for at least six months of planning and a lot of mess, dust and noise but now that’s it’s finished, it was so worth it!"

'Mine was a challenging job from the start. Updating a 20 year old apartment to the modern idiom was always going to be hard. I found Demardi Pty Ltd through my Architect. From the word go, the director and his team manager were right into the detail. The team worked assiduously and with a terrific eye for detail. There were technically difficult structural changes, dictated by my Architect, which they managed quickly and competently. It was necessary to renew the waterproofing on two balconies, a huge job, and this also was done well and quickly. The construction team worked well with my Interior Designer, as did the painters and electrician. The task took nearly four months over all, but the result is wonderful. The style is eclectic to suit me. The three bathrooms were upgraded. There are two libraries, a study for the computer setup and a picture gallery. The team worked tirelessly, and have returned to attend to one or two inevitable details when requested. I do not hesitate to recommend Demardi Pty Ltd for its professional and caring approach. A job very well done indeed by a dedicated and painstaking crew. As a footnote, we did not have a single argument!'
