HIGH LEVEL OF WORKMANSHIP

"I am very happy to recommend Brownhill Homes Pty Ltd based on the excellent projects they have completed for me. They have always shown a high level of workmanship, professionalism and client service at all stages of the building process. Chris is easy to approach and deal with and all the trades have been respectful and efficient in their approach to the job. The quality of the work is always impressive and completed within the required timeframe. Their flexibility and attention to detail made the project a huge success and their advice along the way was much appreciated. I will certainly be using their services for my future developments."

DONNA & JOHN

GREATEST VALUE FOR MONEY

"In early 2010, we engaged Brownhill Homes to build our three bedroom unit Chris and his team competed for the contract against a number of other builders who all came highly recommended. From the outset Chris’ quote were the most realistic and demonstrated the greatest value for money. During the quotation process and immediately afterwards, Chris took us through step by step the stages of the build and the expected timelines. This was extremely important to us as we were living on site as the unit was a result of a subdivision. Chris took the time to explain the technical terms in easy to understand language. Questions that we did have were answered promptly."

ROSS HOLT

OUTSTANDING SERVICE

"Brownhill Homes has been our preferred builder for more than 20 building developments and has built in excess of 60 units for our company Eastern Building Developments over more than fifteen years. Most of the projects have been multiple unit developments, some with challenging site problems to overcome. We have continued to choose Brownhill Homes for the outstanding service we have received. Chris runs his business with a great deal of integrity and we have complete trust in Brownhill Homes. Chris has a relaxed manner and this combined with a thoroughly professional approach makes him very easy to deal with."

Tips You Can't Ignore

Tip #1

Discover 2 acronyms that could be added into your building contract that make the price appear a lot lower. Be cautious with these though as throughout the construction process your contract price can start increasing quickly!

Tip #2

Discover a certain type of clause you’ll see in most contracts. You can’t avoid it, but you can certainly prepare for it.

Tip #3

Discover one of the first major steps in design & construction and all the different names this stage has. Without this stage, you risk dealing with an unprofessional and disorganised builder that has not done any real planning for your project.
