How we started: In 2003 when Sonic and Valleyway Homes came together, 2 of Gippsland's most respected building companies joined forces to become a mega building centre, servicing the people of Gippsland. Both companies boasted a rich history of affordable quality construction over many years:

Brief History Sonic Homes: Sonic Homes was established in 1987 at Sale in Victoria. The early years of the company were spent constructing transportable homes. Around 1991 the company's market was changing, more and more of the enquiry was for large brick veneer permanent homes. A decision was made to move to an on-site based construction method. This allowed the company to broaden its range of designs, beyond the restrictions of transportable construction.   From 1991 the company continued a steady growth through the 90's. The company became a household name thanks to its friendly "no pressure" approach and its outstanding commitment to quality in its construction. Sonic Homes had moved from a small operation to a large volume builder, without compromising customer service and quality.

Brief History Valleyway Homes: Valleyway Homes like Sonic Homes had its origin in the construction of transportable homes. Established in the 1970's, and originally based in Morwell, Valleyway Homes has been a household name in building in the Latrobe Valley and Gippsland for over 25 years. For a brief period in the early 90's the company's display centre was in Rosedale, however it then moved to its current home on the Princes Highway at Traralgon East.   Valleyway Homes also sensed the need to move away from the transportable method of construction which had been its primary focus for the first 10-15 years of the companies life. Through the 90's and into the new century Valleyway Homes became Gippsland and the Valley's premier builder of quality family homes at affordable prices.

Today and into the future.... Since the combining of the Valleyway and Sonic Homes businesses together at the Princes Highway, Traralgon East site in 2003, the company has continued to prosper. 2006 saw the opening of the Belmore Display Home which is proving to be an extremely popular new home choice for many Gippslanders. 2009 will see the opening of 2 exciting new display homes at our Traralgon Display Centre as we continue to offer Gippslanders more choice, better quality and friendly honest service. Valleyway and Sonic Homes continue to service the greater Gippsland area from Warragul in the West, through South Gippsland and as far East as Lakes Entrance.   With many choices now becoming available to customers in the new home market, it's nice to have a Gippsland based building company that is owned by Gippslanders, with an established reputation of building quality homes in the area for over 25 years.
