Jamie Shaw Building

We were looking to turn a machinery shed into a cottage on our property. The aim was to create a cottage with that WOW factor. Not being a true local to the Shoalhaven area I decided to ask fellow golf members at The Heads GC who were involved in the building trade if they could recommend any local builders. Jamie Shaw's name kept coming up whether it be from a plumber, painter, chippy of concreter. So I called Jamie and we had a brief chat on site. Firstly, he was punctual, (pretty important to me), well presented, but still looked like he had done a hard days work on the tools! From there we met again but this time with his 2 carpenters Jimmy and Locky. We spoke openly of the proposed DA and started to take ideas and advice from all 3 of them concerning design, materials and how we can create this special project . It became very apparent Jamie and the boys knew their stuff and were as enthusiastic as us on building a cottage we could all be proud of. Part of these discussions involved roof line design, gables, internal raked timber ceilings, external stonework (that could be also used inside), getting the best effects to work in with the surrounding environment and layouts. Sort of everything an architect does but using a builders practicality. After signing cost plus contracts, Jamie gave us a detailed building timeline from start to finish. He explained why and how he engaged his subbies (plumber, electricians, concreter, stone mason, etc). From day one it was apparent the respect Jamie had from these trades people. I would chat with them and frequently I was told that when you work for Jamie you had better get it right. Jamie was continually assessing workmanship on the job. His organisational and communication skills were exceptional. We were always informed of even the most minor details and if, on the rare occurrence (usually weather or availability issues) and timing changed, we were the first to be told. We do not live on the property and our site meetings were weekly therefore these skills helped make the whole experience for us extremely comfortable. Even when it came to appliances, white goods, air cons, fires, materials, Jamie had it covered and knew where to obtain from with the best value prices. It was an absolute pleasure working with Jamie Shaw Building and cannot recommend his workmanship and professionalism more highly. If you are like us and enjoy a bit of banter with the guys on site you certainly get it with his crew. All excellent at their trades, enjoy their work and love a good sledge! Seriously, if you intend a new home, remodel or a masterpiece, contact Jamie sooner than later before he is booked out too far in advance. Our words only say so much so better just check out the photos provided.

We have just taken the keys to our new custom designed home constructed by Jamie Shaw Building. We are blown away by Jamie's high quality finish and passion to deliver a stunning home. The build finished on budget, on time and expectations fully met and exceeded. Jamie was available most days and evenings to discuss any matter we had. We lived 2 hours from our new home so we relied on Jamie for a lot of the decision making and to his credit he nailed it every time. We cannot recommend both Jamie and his team highly enough. This has been a pleasure and great experience for us. Thank you Jamie and good luck on your future endeavour's.

Jamie and the team were fantastic from the very start of the building process and even after handover. Nothing was ever too hard, he was always directly in contact and there was peace of mind the whole way through. He was reliable and on time, all while maintaining a strong attention to detail. We are very happy with our new home and we couldn't recommend Jamie enough.

Thank you Jamie and your team for the amazing job on our build. From my 1st nervous call 2.5 years ago seeking advice to the finished product this month you have been supportive, helpful and courteous. Your skill and craftsmanship is excellent. We could not be happier. Our build was a large garage however you gave it the same respect and attention to detail one would hope to find in a builder building a prestigious home. We can see the workmanship in every detail. Your supporting trades were well managed, on time and aware of your standards which are of the highest I have seen. We know the decision to engage your Services was one of the best decisions we have made. We believe the key to a good builder is how those little problem that arise are managed and each time a little issue came up it was dealt with quickly, professionally and with minimal fuss. We would be happy to recommend Jamie and his team to any prospective client. We actually think you’d be crazy to engage any other builder.

Jamie and his team from the very start of our building process gave nothing less that excellent service We received constant updates and pictures as well as phone calls constantly filling us in as we were not able to see the build much due to work commitments All of his staff treated the job as if it were their own and always greeted us with a smile Jamie's work has been commented on by everyone that has come through our home and his attention to detail and pride he takes in his work is outstanding We will be building again and again with Jamie and happily recommend him to anyone

I can not thank Jamie and his boys enough for the dedication and commitment they shown throughout the process of building my dream home. The whole build exceeded our expectations from the level of workmanship, time frame and service. The level of service shown from Jamie was amazing, from helping with ideas for the floor plan to being kept up to date daily with the build and a friendly call every couple weeks after handover to make sure everything is going smoothly. I will continue to recommend Jamie Shaw Building to anyone looking to build or renovate. They have gone above and beyond and I can not thank them enough.

Jamie is a perfectionist, and it shows in his work, from every aspect of the house externally to the intricate details internally which makes the houses he builds, nothing less than perfect. We love the passion Jamie and the team has for Building and are so glad that we decided to get Jamie Shaw Building to build our home. We are impressed with the quality and craftsmanship that has gone into our home. We had a vision for our new home and rather than Jamie pushing he's own ideas he was too happy to bring our vision to life all the while conscious of our budget. communication between us and the project was easy and it was never a problem to come and have a look at the process. We are proud of our home and would highly recommend Jamie Shaw building.

Our beach pad (circa 1995) needed a complete update of almost everything excluding the structure. We had sourced the kitchen company and roofer but needed a builder who we could trust to complete the reconfiguration of the living areas, adding an outdoor living area with pergola and remove outdated fixtures such as LED light windows, front door and Bay window. All of these jobs required the use of various tradesman and skills and would be too difficult to project manage and build DYI style. Jamie and his team were knowledgeable, polite, easy to work with, skilled and trustworthy! We were interstate for most of the renovation due to work and Jamie provided updates, consulted, discussed and communicated anything that occurred at the house to us when we were away. He also completed additional jobs such as new decking and ensured that he completed it in a timely fashion! Can't wait to work with him again!
