A New Chapter for Independent Builders Gippsland
At the beginning of this year, we (Matt & Chloe) were honoured to take over ownership of Independent Builders Gippsland from Brian and Tania McNamara.
Many of you already know us, as we’ve both been part of the IBG team for a number of years — Chloe for 8 years and Matt for 6 years. During that time, we’ve had the privilege of working alongside Brian and Tania, learning from their experience and helping deliver quality homes for families across Gippsland.
As we step into this next chapter, we remain committed to continuing the legacy they built. IBG will continue to operate with the same dedicated team, trusted trades and suppliers, and the same focus on quality and service our clients know us for.
We would like to sincerely thank Brian and Tania for the incredible business they have built and for placing their trust in us to carry IBG forward.
To our clients, trades, suppliers and wider community — thank you for your ongoing support. We look forward to continuing to build homes and lasting relationships across Gippsland for many years to come.
— Matt & Chloe Schlitz
