- Who is Wilks
Craftsmen,
not performers.
We build and renovate architecturally designed homes across Adelaide. No templates, no repeats. Just a small, detail-driven crew who started on the tools and never lost the love for it.

Building right across Adelaide
We'd rather spend your money on your home than on our brand.
Wilks started as a carpentry business, and that’s still who we are. Years on large-scale Adelaide projects set our standards high and kept the craft at our core.
Today we’re small enough to know you properly and big enough to deliver ambitious builds on tight timelines. We care about how the build feels for you as much as how it looks at handover.
02 · WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Five things we won't budge on.
What you can expect from us, on every build, whatever the size.
The little things
Our own crew
Top-shelf in-house carpenters and office team. Small enough to know you, big enough to deliver on tight timelines.
Built together
A collaborative process where your vision leads, with a little bit of Wilks flair along the way.
Built for our climate
Quality materials, thoughtful detailing and a build-above-code approach, so your home stands strong decades on.
Straight talk
Honest timelines and organised updates, from the first call right through to handover.
Sam Willcocks
Sam backed himself in 2015 after more than a decade across commercial and residential builds. He found his sweet spot in mid-century and contemporary architecture, and as a family man, he knows how people actually live in their homes day to day.
The aim is always architectural spaces that still feel like home. True to form, he’d rather let the work do the talking.
