The Construction Source

Bruce Kidd is the President of KG Homes. He takes the lead on all their company’s construction efforts, while his son, Nic Kidd, looks after the operation of the stores. According to him, Kidd Group has built all aspects of their business mostly through repeat work and referrals, and he credits that client loyalty to their consistency – of both quality and service. “We’re consistent with our clients, and we’re consistent with our work,” Bruce says. “If we make a promise, we stick to it. If we put our name on something, we stand behind it. People can count on us to deliver to the same high standard every time.” On the construction side, Kidd Group’s initial foray into the market involved purchasing, renovating, and then selling dilapidated properties. They did that for roughly 15 years, until the practice was popularized by ‘flip it’ TV shows, and the market for underutilised properties became saturated. In their time in that game, however, they had developed a lot of in- house building expertise, and had built relationships with some of the region’s premier subcontractors and tradesmen. Armed with their experience, and backed by their trusted team, the Kidd family formed KG Homes a little over three years ago. Under the new brand, they began building custom houses from scratch, at a rate of approximately 10 to 15 homes NOVEMBER 2020 “If we make a promise, we stick to it. If we put our name on something, we stand behind it. People can count on us to deliver to the same high standard every time.”
