Determined to revolutionise Perth's building industry, Chris founded Guilbert Constructions with a clear mission: combining exceptional craftsmanship with a stress-free process to create homes where families thrive. But something wasn't quite right with the name.
"For years, I searched for a name that would truly reflect our commitment to excellence," Chris recalls. "I wanted something that captured not just what we do, but how we do it -- our obsession with exceeding expectations."
The answer came unexpectedly from a client who declared that Chris and his team had exceeded their expectations "tenfold." In that moment, Tenfold Homes was born -- a name that perfectly captures our promise to deliver above and beyond in every aspect of your building journey.

When you're investing in your dream home, you deserve more than just a builder -- you deserve a partner who treats your project with the same care, precision, and pride they'd demand for their own home.
That's exactly what you'll find at Tenfold Homes, where our guiding philosophy is refreshingly simple: "If I wouldn't do it for my home, I won't do it for yours."
It's not just a saying. It's a promise that shapes every decision we make, every material we select, and every detail we perfect. A promise born from personal experience and a deep understanding that your home isn't just another project -- it's where your family will create memories for generations to come.
In an industry where "brick is best" has been the mantra since the 1970s, we dare to be different. Not for the sake of it, but because we've discovered a better way to build Perth homes.
"What worked in the 1970s isn't necessarily what works best today," Chris explains. "Would you still use a 1970s air conditioner? Drive a 1970s car? Why should we build homes using outdated methods when superior alternatives exist?"
Our lightweight construction method delivers benefits that double brick homes simply can't match:
Chris's team affectionately calls him "the duck on water" -- cool and collected above, while working tirelessly beneath to solve problems and perfect details. It's an approach shaped by years of surfing, where success comes from reading conditions, maintaining balance, and knowing exactly when to make your move.
This measured, thoughtful approach defines everything we do at Tenfold Homes:
Today, Chris leads Tenfold Homes with the same passion that drove him to build his first home. But now he's surrounded by a team that shares his uncompromising standards and commitment to excellence.
Looking at his own young family (his wife and 3 young children, who you’ll probably meet throughout your build), Chris is reminded daily of what really matters: creating homes where families can flourish and memories can grow.
"Every home we build is more than a project," Chris reflects. "It's a family's dream, their biggest investment, their future. That's why we treat each home as if we were building it for our own family."
Building your dream home should be an exciting journey, not a source of stress. At Tenfold Homes, we've created a process that makes that possible -- combining innovative construction methods, meticulous planning, and unwavering dedication to excellence.
We invite you to discover the difference for yourself. Book a no-obligation consultation with Chris and the team, and learn how we can help bring your vision to life -- with the certainty, quality, and the care you deserve.
"It's not just about building houses," Chris says. "It's about creating homes where families thrive, where memories are made, and where dreams become reality. That's the true measure of our success."
