Custom Home Builders in Sydney
About Artico Homes
Founded in 2016 by Ben De Nicola and Dean Mileto, Artico Homes was established to put people back at the heart of home building.
With over 20 years of combined experience in design and construction, Ben and Dean set out to make the building process an exciting and rewarding journey, not a stressful one. Today, Artico Homes continues to uphold that same vision under the leadership of Dean who now solely operates and manages the company. Dean remains dedicated to delivering the highest standard of craftsmanship and service, ensuring every Artico home reflects the unique needs, lifestyle, and vision of each client.

Our Process
Stage 1 – Project Establishment
Stage 2 – Pre-Construction
Once you have approved the fee proposal, we move into the pre-construction phase. During this stage, we begin carrying out the agreed scope of works
Stage 3 – Construction
Stage 4 – Handover
As we approach the final stages of construction, we will begin preparing for handover by completing all necessary final inspections, certifications, and quality assurance checks.
Stage 5 – Post-Handover Support
Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is simple: every client is unique, and every home should be too. We reject the one size fits all approach. Instead we take the time to understand your vision, your lifestyle and your needs so we can bring to life a home that truly reflects you.

Services
Our services cover residential construction projects where structure, documentation, and supervision are essential to maintaining control. As custom home builders in Sydney, we operate across varied project types, applying the same delivery systems regardless of scale or complexity. This snapshot outlines how our services are structured and what homeowners can expect at a high level.
Custom Home Builds
We deliver custom built homes designed to respond to site conditions, planning controls, and client requirements. Each build follows a defined process that prioritises early assessment, documented decisions, and consistent supervision throughout construction.
Complex and Constrained Sites
Our services extend to sites with planning overlays, access limitations, or topographical challenges. These projects require early feasibility review and coordinated documentation to ensure construction proceeds within known constraints rather than reacting to issues on site.
End-to-End Project Delivery
Across all services, the same systems apply: structured feasibility, fixed decision points, and controlled execution. This approach allows custom home builders to deliver predictable outcomes rather than variable, project-by-project results driven by changing inputs.
Where We Build
Project delivery is concentrated in established residential regions where planning controls, site constraints, and neighbourhood context require a considered approach. This includes infill locations, sloping sites, and areas with layered development requirements that benefit from early feasibility assessment and structured execution.
Northern Sydney and the Northern Beaches
This region includes established suburbs with varied planning controls, coastal considerations, and access constraints. Projects in Northern Sydney and the Sydney Northern Beaches often require detailed assessment of site conditions and approval pathways before construction begins.
Lower and Upper North Shore
The Lower North Shore and Upper North Shore include heritage considerations, sloping sites, and neighbourhood character controls. Construction in these areas benefits from documented decision-making and consistent supervision to manage complexity throughout the build.
Hills District and Inner West
Projects in the Hills District and Inner West commonly involve larger sites, evolving planning frameworks, or tighter urban constraints. These conditions require early alignment between design intent, approvals, and construction sequencing to support predictable outcomes.
FAQs
How often do updates occur during construction?
Updates are issued at defined milestones aligned with the build programme.
Who is the primary point of contact?
A consistent contact is maintained throughout the build to support continuity.
Are on-site meetings required regularly?
Meetings are scheduled when decisions or reviews are required, rather than routinely.
Where can we review broader questions?
Additional general questions are addressed within our frequently asked questions section.
Communication Cadence Module
Communication follows a defined cadence rather than informal or reactive updates. Information is shared at scheduled milestones aligned with construction stages, ensuring homeowners receive updates when decisions are required.
Updates typically include progress status, upcoming selections, and confirmation of approved changes. This structure reduces uncertainty and avoids the need for constant site engagement. Delivered outcomes that reflect this communication approach can be viewed through our project portfolio, which demonstrates how consistency supports stable delivery.
