Brian & Jude Kow

Nic & Wes Builders Pte Ltd began as a vision put into action through founders — and husband and wife team — Brian and Jude Kow, who as homeowners played an integral part in the building and designing of their own homes.

Through their home-build journeys, they faced the challenges of dealing with multiple separate entities: contractor, interior designer, architect and engineer. Brian and Jude felt a void in having to bring these parties together and personally manage the home-build from start to end — multiple personalities could easily clash, bringing delays, miscommunication and escalating hidden costs.

Building one home after another, the hands-on experience they gathered coupled with a passion to create not just houses but homes inspired Brian and Jude to simplify that wheel for homeowners like themselves, with the inception of Nic & Wes Builders in 2002. The firm is named after their two children — for home is where the family is.
