Our Story
The Gowers Homes Story
We started like many small businesses did in the 70’s. A young man with bright eyes, a wry smile, a handful of tools, a strong work ethic and a dream to build a business doing something he loves. 45 years later Gowers Homes has built a solid reputation for quality homes demonstrated in decades of new homes across the greater Sunraysia area. With a rich history in building it was inevitable that Ben & Jason Gowers picked up the family batten to continue the legacy. 45 years on from it’s humble beginnings, Gowers Homes has become Sunraysia highest awarded builder of quality homes with the service and workmanship of years gone by mixed with cutting edge innovation and design, we are the perfect blend for country families.
