Ed & Adapt:
Born and raised in Newcastle, after worked as a carpenter in Sydney and accomplished his builder’s license, Ed returned to Newcastle in 2018.
Over the years, he saw many of the heritage homes in his hometown being replaced, and it sparked a desire in him to return and make a difference. Ed wants to preserve the unique character of Newcastle while creating homes that’s beautiful and high performance. And so Adapt was born.
In 2020, Ed completed his “Passive House” Builder certification, allowing him “go further” to be able to build high-performance homes that are energy-efficient, comfortable, and affordable to run.

Our commitment to the community and the town we call home goes beyond just building houses. We are the Newcastle local builder. We believe in contributing to the town we called home in meaningful ways: supporting local sports clubs, and giving back whenever we can.
For us, it’s about making a small positive impact through the craft of building — creating homes that people can trust and rely on.
