Example coverage

Over the past twelve months clients have used our residential builders panel to investigate a range of issues:

  • Builders' attitudes towards a wide range of energy efficiency issues. What influence do builders have in selecting energy efficient materials and products? How many new dwellings have installed energy efficient products?
  • What level of water saving devices are being installed in new dwellings? What are the main drivers for installation and where are builders getting their information from?
  • When building a new dwelling, is the landscaping done concurrently? How do builders choose a landscape designer and where do they source the materials? 
  • How many cupboard doors and benchtops are installed in new dwellings each year? Who chooses the material used and how are kitchen and bathroom layouts decided?
  • What major household appliances are installed at the time of building? What brands are installed and where are the appliances sourced from?
