Our Story

Building with precision.
Delivering with integrity.

Specialist builders for complex, architect-designed projects across Sydney.

Who We Are

Criterion Projects

Criterion Projects was established in 2021 by George Moussa, who brings over 15 years of construction experience across Sydney. Before founding Criterion, George operated two successful construction companies, building a reputation for delivering complex, architecturally sophisticated projects with precision and integrity.

We specialise in intricate designs and construction projects, delivering personalised solutions aligned with each client's quality standards, budget requirements, and project specifications.

Our clients come to us when they need a builder who treats their project as a personal challenge, not just another job. Whether it's a challenging residential design, a technically demanding commercial fit-out, or a sensitive public domain project, we bring the same level of dedication and craft to every build.

Our approach
to every project

Precision in every detail

The details that are hardest to achieve are often the ones that make the biggest difference. We pay attention to what others overlook, joints, finishes, alignments, tolerances. Quality shows.

Custom solutions for every project

No two projects are the same. We listen to your vision, understand your constraints, and develop a bespoke approach. Our job is to find a way, not to tell you what can't be done.

Trusted expertise

Fifteen years of experience across residential, commercial, and public domain builds means we've seen it all. That knowledge informs every decision, from materials selection to sequencing.

"George understood exactly what we needed for our practice. The attention to detail was extraordinary, everything was delivered on schedule and within budget. I would recommend Criterion Projects to anyone looking for a builder who truly cares about the outcome."
