Dado Homes | 9 The award-winning project was a two-storey home built on a challenging site. According to the HIA judges, the home displayed “workmanship and innovation in the highest order.” Stefano credits the achievement to the hard work of the Dado Homes team, including their subcontractors – many of whom they have worked with since the very beginning of the company. “We had just the right mixture of everything to create something outstanding,” he says. “Like anything in life – whether it be baking a cake or playing golf – the right combination of ingredients and factors comes into play.” “When you find that perfect mix you stick to it,” he adds. “From there, you can only improve.” ALWAYS IMPROVING Moving forward, that is exactly what Dado Homes wants to do – improve, and not necessarily expand. They currently work in most metropolitan areas of South Australia, and are satisfied with their project load. “We’re very happy with the volume of work that is coming in,” Stefano says. “We could consider taking on more in the future, but for now we’d like to keep things the way they are so we can supply consistent quality and communication to clients.” The company’s main goal for the future, Stefano says, is to modernise. They want to develop and refine new construction techniques and systems in order to make their building process more efficient. They want to investigate methods for keeping building times down, but while still improving their level of workmanship – all of which will benefit their customers. “At the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about,” Stefano concludes. “Our clients always come first.”
