The Team
MH Build is a family business that utilizes a traditional building company employment structure.
Each project is driven by our experienced project management team. We ensure all contract administration between Builder, Architect and Client are finalised in a timely and affective manner, with good communication the cornerstone of all off site matters.
Once on site, our Site Managers lead operations on the ground, guiding both our employee carpenters and apprentices, and a tight group of trade specialist contractors, who are pivotal in delivering the high-quality product that we expect. From Directors, to employees to subcontractors and labourers, the MH Build team work symbiotically, and boast a healthy company culture based on mutual respect and general love of building. We believe this to be the key strength in our approach, and one which will bolster or longevity in the market.

Alex Miller
A carpenter by trade, Alex trained and developed his keen eye for detail while employed by Architectural Residence Builder A.I.M. Partnership, between 2004-2012.
During this period, he was employed as a site manager, and responsible for all on site operations, and delivery of various bespoke architecturally designed homes across Sydney’s foreshore and in Canberra. It was here that his passion for building and design flourished, working on projects designed by architects including Candelapas Associates, Alex Popov and Associates, Peter Stutchbury Architecture and Collins Caddaye Architects (Canberra).
In 2012 Alex established Coastyle Constructions and began acting as principal contractor on smaller scale residential projects. Over the next few years Coastyle Constructions grew, taking time to establish good management systems and develop an in-depth understanding of the contracts administration required to affectively drive a building company to success. Throughout this growth, Alex and Coastyle have maintained a focus on sterling customer service and the delivery of high-level finish projects.
In 2017 Alex, alongside father-in-law Matthew Hawkins, and Brother-in-law Jack Hawkins, established MH Build. Continuing a focus on quality fine finishes and client satisfaction while utilizing traditional construction company roles.
As Construction Director, Alex brings 13 years of building experience to the fore, with an understanding of both traditional and modern building technologies, effective construction programming and a passion for delivering a quality product.
A truly professional and highly motivated builder, Alex finds the entire building experience, and developing relationships of trust and respect with clients and architects to be the greatest reward of all.
