We’re not just builders. We’re a local, family-owned team passionate about designing and building beautiful homes that reflect the heart and lifestyle of the Illawarra community.

To us, our happy place is doing what we love every day—creating stunning, high-quality homes in the region we’re proud to call home. With over 20 years of experience and a dedication to excellence, our mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of our clients—starting from the very first chat, right through to handing over the keys.

Founded by Darrin Thompson in 2010 from a small home office in Kanahooka, Evolution Building Group was built on a vision: to offer custom homes with flexibility, superior finishes, and an exceptional experience for every client. Backed by his wife Jo, sisters Lyndall and Stephanie, and a close-knit team of dedicated professionals, Evolution has grown into an award-winning business known for its friendly approach and outstanding results.

Nothing gives us more satisfaction than watching a home take shape—step by step, stage by stage—guided by skilled craftsmanship, meticulous attention to detail, and a genuine care for our clients. We’re proud to work alongside some of the best tradespeople and suppliers in the industry because we believe our clients deserve nothing less than the best.

We also understand the importance of community. That’s why we’re committed to supporting local trades and sourcing materials from trusted local suppliers. When you build with us, you’re not just getting a home—you’re becoming part of something bigger: a community built on trust, connection, and shared pride.

At Evolution, your dream is at the heart of what we do. We take the time to truly understand your vision, and then bring it to life with a personalised, collaborative approach. We believe constant evolution is the key to lasting success—and that building a home should be as enjoyable as living in it.

So whether you're a first home buyer, a growing family, or ready to create your forever home—our team is here to guide, support, and inspire you every step of the way.

Because home isn't just where you live.
It's your happy place.
Find yours with Evolution Building Group. 💚
