An Intelligent Building Company

Classic in form.
Crafted in code.

Sentium designs, engineers and builds family homes as one system — made in a factory, assembled on your own block, and handed over with the record of how it was made.

01 · The idea

It’s hard to picture a home on an empty block. So the house is modelled first — then made, panel by numbered panel.

Sentium is an intelligent building company: design, engineering and building held in one system. The homes stay classic and warm to live in. The way they are made is controlled, recorded and repeatable.

01

Designed as one model

The whole home is designed and settled as one model. Nothing is made until the design is frozen.

02

Made in a factory

The main parts of the home are made under cover on a galvanised-steel load-bearing frame, with each stage checked and recorded.

03

Assembled on your block

On permanent foundations — a steel foundation system as standard, or a conventional concrete slab if you prefer — by a licensed builder, with a local certifier inspecting at the critical stages.

04

Handed over with its record

A completion pack comes with the keys — the record of how your home was made and put together.

The film · 2 min 51

From an empty block to a house on a street.

How a Sentium home goes from a model to numbered parts, to a factory, to your block — and what stays inside the walls, out of sight.

“Wherever it stands, it should feel like it has always been there.”

02 · The Spargo Range

Four homes, one standard.

Family homes across 10 to 12.5 metre frontages — from a single level to a six-bedroom plan. Every Spargo shares one building system and one published standard of inclusions.

Renders are concept only. Areas, plans and inclusions are subject to final design, site and CDC/DA conditions. Range booklet — all four homes (PDF) ↓
The place · Sapphire, Rouse Hill

A new estate in Sydney’s north-west.

The first Spargo homes are released at Sapphire, Rouse Hill — an established family suburb close to Tallawong Metro and Rouse Hill Town Centre, with schools, parks and the Hills district at the door.

01A master-planned community of 307 registered lots — 2.2 km to Tallawong Metro, about nine minutes to Rouse Hill Town Centre.
02Spargo homes sit on titled blocks of 10, 11 and 12.5 metre frontage. Display home at the corner of Tallawong Rd and Brilliant St, by appointment.
03Have your own land elsewhere? Every Spargo can be assessed for your block.

03 · How it’s made

Modelled first. Made under cover. Assembled on your block.

You don’t need to know how a wall is engineered to trust it. Here is the idea, in four steps.

Step 01 of 04

Modelled

Your home exists as a complete model before anything is made. The design is settled and frozen first.

For youWhat you approve is what gets built.
What it means for you

The difference is in what you don’t see.

The work most likely to go wrong in a house is what’s hidden inside the walls. Conventionally that is done out in the weather. Here it is done under cover, and recorded.

Made out of the weather

The main parts of your home are made under cover, with insulation and weatherproofing already inside when they arrive.

Checked, then checked again

Each stage is checked and recorded in the factory. On site, a local certifier inspects at the critical stages.

A calmer site

On your block the work is assembly — lifting, joining and sealing — so there is less disruption on your street.

A record with the keys

At handover you receive a completion pack: the record of how your home was made and put together.

04 · Delivery process

The standard path for a new home — with one difference.

Design, approval, build, inspect, occupation certificate. The difference is step three: most of the building happens in a factory, so your foundations can go in at the same time.

01

Design

The whole home is designed and settled as one model. Making starts after the design is frozen.

02

Approval

DA + CC or CDC, depending on the block and its planning controls, with a Principal Certifier appointed.

03

Factory build

The main parts of the home are made and checked stage by stage. Every part is numbered.

Foundations run in parallel
04

Transport

Packed in order and checked against the loading list.

05

Site assembly

Lifted into place and joined by a licensed builder, then finished and sealed.

06

Inspection

A local certifier inspects at the critical stages.

07

Occupation certificate

The OC is issued and the house is handed over, with its completion pack.

Programme, approval pathway and handover dates are set by each project’s formal documents and are confirmed by the Sentium team once your block has been assessed.

05 · Designed for life

Warm to live in.

Light-filled living that opens to the garden; a kitchen at the heart of the home; quiet, durable rooms that hold their calm in the everyday.

07 · Approval, inspection and warranty

Approved and inspected the way any new home is.

Built on your own land, on permanent foundations, to the National Construction Code, through the normal approval and inspection process. Once the occupation certificate is issued you can live in it, let it or sell it like any house.

Design

Architect

Design and planning compliance.

Structure

Registered engineer

Structural design and certification.

Inspection

Certifier

Critical-stage inspections and the occupation certificate.

Construction

Licensed builder

Site construction and the statutory NSW warranty.

Quality

Sentium

The quality of what is made, and the record of it.

Comfort in use

Built in, not added afterwards.

The figures for any given house sit in its own design documents and energy assessment, and are available from the Sentium team.

Warm in winter, cool in summer

R2.5 insulation to the walls and R7 to the roof, fitted in the factory. Each home is designed to the NatHERS 7-star standard.

Dry

Weatherproofing goes in under cover, and every opening is designed with its seals from the start.

Quiet

Walls and floors are designed for sound — between rooms, and between levels.

Built to last

A galvanised-steel load-bearing frame, a fibre-cement exterior with no exposed timber and termite-treated internal framing. Bushfire-prone blocks receive a site-specific design.

Warranty

The warranty is the licensed builder’s under NSW law, with Home Owner’s Warranty insurance in the standard package. The terms are set out in the contract.

Designed to support NSW approval pathways, subject to site-specific assessment. Each project is reviewed by local consultants, engineers and certifiers before approval and construction.

08 · The company

One record, from the first enquiry to the keys.

Building usually loses information every time it changes hands — from brief to drawing, drawing to quote, quote to factory, factory to site. Sentium holds it in one data chain, so what is chosen is what is priced, made and handed over.

01

Brief

Block, budget, household and the way you want to live.

02

Configuration

A standard Spargo home, its layout and inclusions, within a defined scope.

03

Model

One complete model of the home, from which everything else follows.

04

Supply

Materials and parts, sourced and documented against the model.

05

Making and transport

Numbered parts, made, checked and sent in the order they are needed.

06

Delivery and after-care

Assembly, inspection, completion records and ongoing service.

Principle 01

Australian standards first

Every home starts from the National Construction Code and the approval conditions of its own block.

Principle 02

Local delivery first

Making parts off site does not replace local design, engineering, building, inspection and after-care. It works alongside them.

Principle 03

Traceability first

What goes into your home is numbered and recorded, so quality can be traced rather than assumed.

Intelligence here does not replace architects, engineers or builders. It keeps information from being lost between them.

Sentium is the company; Spargo is its range of homes. Our first release is at Rouse Hill in Sydney’s north-west — where the homes and the way they are made are proven together, on real blocks, for real households.

Sentium sells homes, not software. The system is simply how every Spargo is designed, made and delivered.

09 · Common questions

Asked often. Answered plainly.

Price, programme, certificates and anything specific to your block come down to the documents — the Sentium team will give you a formal answer.

Ask the team →

Is this a transportable or a kit home?
No. The parts of the house are made off site and assembled on permanent foundations on your block. A transportable is a finished building moved onto a block. Sentium is the former.
Isn’t prefab the cheap option? Will it resell?
This is built on your own land, on permanent foundations, to the National Construction Code, through the normal approval and inspection process. Once the occupation certificate is issued you can live in it, let it or sell it like any house. It’s valued against the houses around it.
Will council hold it up?
Approval runs the normal way — DA + CC or CDC, depending on your block and its planning controls. We provide complete drawings and documentation, which makes it easier to assess. Which path and how long, the local team can tell you once they’ve looked at your block.
It’s made overseas — what if the quality is wrong?
The factory keeps a quality record at every stage and every part carries its own number, which is more checkable than site work. The materials are Australian-standard — the timber framing is Canadian MGP10 or LVL, termite-treated before it ships. Here, a licensed builder installs it, a local certifier inspects it, and the warranty is the licensed builder’s under NSW law.
Is it faster than a conventional build?
Factory and site run in parallel, which makes it a more controlled method. Whether it’s faster depends on your project’s programme — and the programme comes from the project plan, not from a brochure.
What are the foundations?
As standard, a galvanised-steel foundation system that keeps the house clear of the ground, with a ventilated, insect-screened underfloor. If you prefer, a conventional concrete slab or strip footing is available instead. Either way, the foundations for your block are designed by a local engineer from the soil report.
My block slopes. Does that matter?
The system suits sloping ground with minimal cut and fill, and the steel foundation system steps with the site. The foundations for your block are designed by a local engineer from the soil report.
What do I receive at handover?
The keys, the occupation certificate, and a completion pack — the record of how your home was made and put together.
What kinds of project does it suit?
Selected single dwelling, duplex, granny flat and house & land projects, subject to planning controls.
