About

Our mission is to craft your dreams and to create a family of talented tradespeople with exceptional standards, who live our values.

Our journey

Hi, this is us. Aj on the left, Nick on the right. Together we own and operate NJC Building, a bespoke building business based in Bathurst, central west NSW.

Nick’s career and his love of working with natural materials began with carpentry. From this solid grounding Nick expanded his interests and skill set to include building and construction, becoming a respected, sought-after, certified builder in the Bathurst region and beyond.

Aj is a qualified boiler maker by trade, and is the Business Account Manager for NJC Building.  She is committed to delivering customer-centred service across all areas of the business.

With a young family of our own, we understand the benefits of building beautiful, practical, inviting, environmentally sustainable homes.

At the heart of all that we do is our desire to work closely with our clients to craft beautiful, unique homes that stand the test of time.

We enjoy our work and we love our team like family.

We nurture strong relationships with our clients, our staff, our suppliers and our broader community and we feel honoured to be building beautiful dreams for our clients.

We value the trust you place in us to deliver your crafted dream; for a new home, a renovation or a commercial project.
