Services
From the foundations to the roof
New builds, extensions, renovations: carefully planned, built on schedule.
Request a quote
Family homes, turnkey or as a shell
Solid brick construction from the foundation slab to handover. For turnkey homes we coordinate the electrician, plumber, tiler and painter. With a shell, you take over the interior work yourself.
Extensions and conversions
An extra room, a conservatory, a second storey on the garage: we check the existing structure and statics and build while you keep living in the house.
Renovation and facades
Drying out damp walls, external insulation, new render, replacement windows. We help you put together the paperwork for subsidy applications.
Basements and foundation slabs
Excavation, footings, slab and basement in watertight concrete or formwork blocks, with waterproofing and drainage. Also for other manufacturers' prefab houses.
Design and planning application
We design your house, draw up the planning drawings and building description and submit them to the municipality. We attend the building hearing with you.
Site management and supervision
Even if you build with other firms, we act as the responsible site supervisor towards the authority, check quality and schedules and sign off each trade.

How we work
How we work on your site
For most people a house is the biggest purchase of their life. That is why we follow a few rules, and they are written into the contract.
Fixed price, not an estimate
You get a lump sum for the agreed scope. Extra costs only arise if you change something, and then in writing beforehand.
Schedule broken down by week
Before work starts you get a construction schedule. If something shifts, you hear it from us, not from the neighbours.
One site manager, one number
Your site manager stays with the project from excavation to handover and can be reached directly on his mobile.
A tidy site
Every evening we tidy up, sweep the road and close the site fence. Your neighbours will thank you for it.
Photos every week
Every Friday you get progress photos, including the things that later disappear behind plaster and screed.
Inspection after one year
One year after handover we come back for an inspection. Hairline cracks or sticking doors are fixed without a long debate.
A fixed price is only as good as the planning behind it. So we would rather spend an extra week on the numbers than send you a supplementary invoice later.
About us
A family firm that has been building since 1987
My father Johann Leitner started out in 1987 with two bricklayers and a second-hand tipper truck. Today we are 25 people: bricklayers, formwork carpenters, four apprentices, two building technicians in the office and three site managers.
As a licensed Baumeister in Austria we are allowed to design buildings, prepare the planning application and act as the responsible site supervisor. That means fewer handovers for you: the person who drew the plan is later on site and knows why the wall is where it is.
We mainly build in the districts of Wiener Neustadt and Neunkirchen and the southern Vienna Basin. We only take on jobs further away if the site manager can still drop by every day.
- Fixed price in the contract
- Own crew, no subcontractor chains

Reviews
What customers say about our work
„Signed in March 2024, moved in July 2025, exactly as the schedule said. The fixed price held; the only extra cost was the additional sockets we insisted on. Mr Kovačević was on site practically every day.“
Christina HoferTurnkey family home, 2025Review on Google „A 32 m² extension to our house from the seventies. Mr Leitner saw at the first visit that the old foundation would not do. It took two weeks longer, but now there are no cracks.“
Peter SchwarzLiving room extension, 2024Review on Google „Our basement had been damp for years. Leitner Bau dug out the outside, redid the waterproofing and laid a drain. It has stayed dry for two winters now. Being able to talk to the site manager in Croatian was a nice bonus.“
Dragana IlićBasement renovation, 2023Review on Google „Clean, punctual shell work, and the brick walls are so straight our drywaller was amazed. One star off because the roof structure came a week late due to supply problems. But we were told honestly and early.“
Martin ReisingerShell for a self-finish house, 2024Review on Google „External insulation and new render for our terraced house. The neighbours were amazed how tidy the site was every evening. The Friday photos were handy because we were away for three weeks during the work.“
Gabriele FuchsFacade renovation, 2025Review on Google „All we had was a plot in Hochwolkersdorf and an idea. Ms Gruber drew three versions and the application went through first time. Building starts in spring, with Leitner of course.“

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Question not answered here? Give us a call, we are happy to advise.
How much does a family home cost with you?
It depends on size, basement and fittings. For a 130 m² turnkey house without a basement our fixed prices are currently mostly between 390,000 and 470,000 euros, excluding the plot. After the first meeting you get a cost estimate, after the design the fixed price.
Are you allowed to design and submit plans as a Baumeister?
Yes. In Austria a licensed Baumeister may design buildings, prepare the permit documents and act as site supervisor. You do not need an architect for that. If you are already working with one, we are just as happy to build to their plans.
How long does it take to build a house?
From the start of construction we allow three to four months for the shell and nine to twelve months for a turnkey house. Before that come design and the building permit, two to six months depending on the municipality.
What happens if I want to change something during construction?
Tell your site manager as early as possible. You get a written quote for the change, and we only build it once you have signed. That way there are no surprises on the final invoice.
Can I do some of the work myself?
Yes, with a shell house quite a lot. For a turnkey house we define in the contract beforehand what you will do yourself, such as painting or flooring. That keeps schedules and warranty clear.
Which areas do you build in?
Mainly in and around Wiener Neustadt, the Neunkirchen district, the southern Baden district and northern Burgenland up to Mattersburg. That way the site manager can be on your site every day.
