Building Dreams Across the Sutherland Shire Since 1999
Jai Curtis has spent over two decades transforming homes throughout Southern Sydney. As the founder and hands-on project manager of Curtis Construction, Jai brings a rare combination of technical expertise, genuine care for clients, and an unwavering commitment to quality craftsmanship. From his early days as a carpenter building decks and pergolas, to leading complex home renovations and extensions, Jai remains personally involved in every project from first consultation to final handover.
Jai Curtis began his career in the building industry over 25 years ago, starting as an apprentice carpenter with a passion for working with timber and creating functional, beautiful spaces. Those early years laid the foundation for what would become Curtis Construction, a company built on the principles of honest workmanship and attention to detail. Jai earned his builder's licence and established his business in 1999, initially focusing on smaller carpentry projects such as decks and pergolas throughout the Sutherland Shire.
Over time, word spread about his meticulous approach and reliable service. Clients began requesting larger projects, and Jai expanded his skills and team to accommodate full home renovations, kitchen transformations, and structural extensions. Today, he leads a skilled team of carpenters, tilers, and tradespeople who share his dedication to delivering outstanding results on every build.
What sets Jai apart from many builders is his personal involvement in every project Curtis Construction undertakes. Rather than delegating and stepping back, Jai remains on-site throughout the construction process, overseeing each phase and ensuring quality standards are maintained. This hands-on approach means clients always have direct access to the decision-maker, eliminating the frustration of dealing with middlemen or waiting for answers.
Jai believes that great communication is just as important as great building. He conducts thorough site inspections before work begins, provides detailed free quotes, and keeps homeowners informed at every stage. Whether you are planning a bathroom renovation or a full upper floor extension, you can expect Jai to be there, guiding the project and addressing any questions that arise along the way.
Growing up and building his business in the Sutherland Shire has given Jai an intimate understanding of the local area. He knows the architectural styles that suit the region, understands the specific council requirements for suburbs from Cronulla to Heathcote, and has established strong relationships with local suppliers and tradespeople. This local expertise translates into smoother projects, fewer delays, and renovations that truly complement the character of Shire homes.
Jai takes pride in being a local builder who genuinely cares about the community he serves. Many of his clients have become repeat customers, returning for additional projects years after their first renovation. Others have referred friends and family, trusting that Jai will deliver the same exceptional service and quality workmanship they experienced. This reputation for reliability is something Jai works hard to maintain with every project.

What Our Clients Say About Jai
Jai and the team built a custom home for us. The finishes are perfect and the building process was a breeze. We decided to use Curtis Constructions because we had used them on two other smaller projects previously and on both of those, we were very satisfied.
Had the pleasure of working with Jai and his team. The wife and I are over the moon with everything they produced. Safe, on-time, on-budget and everything looked amazing. Thanks guys, couldn't recommend any higher!
Really like our new Laundry/Powder Room. Great company to deal with. All tradesmen were on time, cleaned up after themselves and did a meticulous job. Jai (Curtis) was very flexible when we wished to make some changes along the way.
We needed a fresh bathroom renovation. Jai & the team worked hard to provide us with the bathroom we wanted and we're very happy with the end result. They protected our floors and communicated clearly throughout the whole process. Job well done!
