Custom Home Services in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

“We had the pleasure of working with Hugh Gordon Architect for a new house we are building. In the brief we told Hugh everything and anything we wanted to include, expecting Hugh to tell us that some of what we wanted wasn't possible. In fact, Hugh responded with "anything is possible!" He and his team were great to work with.”

“We chose Laggner Constructions to re-build our old deck and to construct a new metal pergola over it. Steve was easy to work with, communication was seamless, the work was of a high quality, and we appreciated his attention to detail. We are very happy with the result and would recommend Steve and his team to others.”

“Dealing wit Studio56 was an absolute breeze. I must admit that I was the customer from hell who was always changing things. However Cristian and his team was extremely patient with me. They are always available to see me to discuss things about my plan and always did it with a smile. It took me a long time to finalise my plan and Cirstian never rushed me. He allowed me time to think about things and suggested great things to improve the house. I would definitely use Studio 56 again and will 100% recommend them to people.”

“We found Michael to be excellent. He was easy to work with and challenged us on our design. He was able to draw out why we had chosen certain elements and then proposed alternatives that enhanced many components of our build. We found him very generous with his outstanding knowledge, down to earth and very obliging. What a nice guy. Thank you Michael.”

“As the owner of Chapman Built Luke was very much on deck and in-tune every step of the way for our major renovation which included a small extension. His attention to detail is extraordinary and we are very happy with the finish. Nothing was too much trouble and our ideas and concerns were always listened to. Luke proposed some cost saving and design changes from the architects drawings which was much appreciated. Carpenters Adam and Dave were outstanding, very respectful and fun. They were excellent problem solvers and totally reliable. Ours was a 5 month build which finished on time. Even now our home is finished Luke has assisted us with a few minor issues. Our satisfaction with the work is obviously important to him. This was the first time we had done anything like this and we would recommend Luke and his team to anyone else contemplating either building a new home or doing a renovation.”

“The team (Bob, Brendan and Lisa) at BLD Homes was extremely professional and accommodating from the start of my build all the way until handover. As this was our first building experience, we weren’t sure what to expect. We have had friends and family with some horror stories with builders in the past, but we knew from the beginning that we were in good hands. Our home was completed well within the time frame and the quality was top class! Any minor issues were quickly resolved to ensure that our move was timely and smooth. They were with us along the way and. We appreciated the constant updates from the team throughout the build and were very impressed with their knowledge/expertise in relation to the design of ou home. This was a large and challenging project but they made it very easy and very satisfying experience for us. The team at BLD was very transparent and honest and provided full details of the cost upfront, I wouldn't choose anyone else for my next home.”

“The Champness builders were very professional,honest and easy to deal with. The build was within budget and time, they were always available on the phone during the build and Paul with years of experience was a great source of practical and useful advice.”

“Dean stuck the right mix between listening to what you want, advising potential problems and practical suggestions to make things work. Very happy with the service”

“Highly recommend this firm - fast, intuitive, creative and good communication! We've worked with the team at Black Line Building Design on a few projects now, most recently a custom design on a tricky block. We are very happy with the result, especially how it fits the block perfectly and also allows beautiful winter sun into the living spaces. We have been so happy with their work, we have just engaged them again to create our dream home which will be a knock down rebuild in an inner Canberra suburb.”

“We worked with Adam Hobill on the design of a significant extension to our home, which included the addition of a second level and the modernisation of the street-facing facade. Adam was a pleasure to work with and provided us with a design that met our needs while adding interest to the home. He pushed us towards new ideas in a few areas, which we benefitted from. He also helped us select a builder and then worked with them in a collaborative manner throughout the build, helping keep the right balance between cost and outcome. Overall we are extremely happy with the end result. As an added benefit the extension won the ACT HIA Award for renovations $200-350k and also the overall Renovation/Addition of the Year award in 2012! We highly recommend Adam Hobill Design.
