East Elevation Construction was formed with the goal of creating dream family homes in the Newcastle/Maitland area of New South Wales. To achieve that goal, they know they need to forge close bonds with designers, subcontractors, and suppliers. Directors Miles Wilson and Joey Nicol believe that by developing relationships with those partners built on trust and understanding, they are able to deliver results that meet and exceed the expectations of their customers. Miles and Joey have been friends since they were kids, and they grew up working together in the same industry. “As adults, we were working for the same builder and we were at the same stage in life,” Miles recalls. “We both had young kids, we were ready to take the next step, and we decided we wanted to try running a business for ourselves.” Together, they started East Elevation Construction in 2020 and are now going strong into their fourth year. “We were really lucky,” says Joey on starting the business. “Post-COVID everything boomed here. In hindsight it was good timing.” In the four years since the company’s inception the business has evolved quite quickly, says Miles. “After the second year, we stopped doing renovations and turned to multi-residential and custom homes. Within the last year our contract values have gone up considerably as we’ve focussed on bigger developments.” Today, their average project is in the $1 to $2 million range, according to Joey. A duplex or triplex would come in at $1.5 to $1.7 million. THE CONSTRUCTION SOURCE AUSTRALIA
