Glenelg's Leading Custom Home Builder
Turnbull Built redefines excellence as a custom home builder in Glenelg, crafting bespoke residences that reflect individuality and style. With over 30 years of industry expertise, founder Adam Turnbull has honed a reputation for blending innovative designs with timeless craftsmanship. Having completed over 40 new home and renovation projects in Glenelg and surrounding suburbs in the past decade, our team has an intimate understanding of the area’s architectural style and building requirements.
Turnbull Built has deep roots in the Glenelg community. Adam has spent most of his life in the area, where he has raised his family and developed strong ties within the local community. The company was born at Adam and Jodie’s kitchen table in their Glenelg residence, where a small, dedicated team operated for six years before expanding.
Adam’s commitment to keeping the business local led to an extensive two-year search for the perfect office space, culminating in the acquisition of 619 Anzac Highway, Glenelg North. Turnbull Built lovingly restored this historic site, preserving a piece of Glenelg’s heritage while creating a space that reflects the company’s craftsmanship and passion for quality construction.

Elissa Lindegreen
We had a totally seamless build with Adam and couldn’t recommend him enough. The entire team at Turnbull Built were exceptional to deal with throughout and the end product of our build spoke for itself. His communication, professionalism and creativity were outstanding, no question too silly and if we every wanted to add/change something, it was no problem. We were able to build our dream high spec custom house with him and if we ever went to do it again, we would go Straight back to Turnbull Built!
Tom Davies
We couldn’t be happier with the outcome of our build with Adam and the Turnbull team. From conception to handover, the communication, professionalism and respect for us as clients was exceptional.
Adam’s ability to structure our renovation and extension around our family living situation meant we did not have to move out and all trades and staff were a pleasure to have in and around our home. The project stayed on budget and was delivered on time. We would build with Adam and his team again in a heartbeat.
Sally Fox
Thank you Adam for our renovation. Your professionalism, attention to detail and communication were first class. We have been trying for a couple of years to find a builder who would remove a complex external rust feature that encased our ensuite and no-one wanted to touch it. You were prepared to investigate and research the best way to tackle this problem with a solution that would be both aesthetically pleasing and deal with the rust issue for good. The end result has exceeded our expectations and looks amazing on our home, like it was always meant to be there.

I am very happy with my Turnbull Built home. I met with five builders (including Turnbull Built) before signing a contract, so a lot of thought went into this. Adam has very good back office support who contributed some valuable design and selection ideas and all the tradespersons he engaged did a professional job. Since I moved in I have been approached by a number of people inquiring about who built the home. I have no hesitation in recommending Turnbul Built to any prospective home owner. Greg
