After months of searching for the perfect first home, Blake and Allana decided the best way forward was to build. Nothing they saw felt quite right—and nothing stood out as a place they could truly see themselves living.
“We just couldn’t find anything that actually suited us… Nothing stood out and said, ‘we want to live there’. I think the best way to get around that was just to build.”

Watching It All Come Together
One of the highlights of the process was seeing the home take shape, from concept to construction.
“Probably seeing it come together, I think that was really exciting the whole way through. You get to create it, then the roof’s on… step by step it’s really exciting to see what you’ve built.”
Each stage brought new energy and a stronger connection to the home they were creating from the ground up.

A Feature That Made All the Difference
Blake and Allana live near a main road, so they didn’t think twice when adding double-glazed windows and doors from Glass Co Metro. But after moving in, the impact was instantly clear.
“Definitely a key feature of this house would be double-glazing… Open the door you hear the noise, close the door and we don’t hear anything. Not hearing the noise is great.”

Why Redink Homes?
With so many builders in Perth, it can be overwhelming to choose. But for Blake and Allana, Redink stood out for a few key reasons.
“I think overall it’s a good quality build. Which is another reason why we went with Redink. There’s a lot of cheaper ones out there. And we previously built with Redink before, my parents, and that was a good house.”
Past experience, strong quality, and the flexibility to create a home that actually suited them sealed the deal.
