Client testimonial
“When we began the journey of building our new home, it started with sketches on scraps of paper, hand drawn, crossed out a million times and re-drawn, in between our busy work schedules. We slowly came up with a design. It was all ours. No architect, no experience in ever designing a home, but a big dream that was hand-drawn on the back of pieces of paper. We wanted to build it. But how?
We needed these drawings professionally drafted and a buildingapproval. Yikes! Marcus spent hours converting the sketches into CAD and we approached a draftsperson to convert them into building drawings. The drafting bit went reasonably smoothly and the building approval, although slow, went through without any major hiccups. It was challenging finding a builder; neither of us knew anyone local and we wanted someone who was skilled enough and motivated enough to take on the job.
Something we were particularly focused on was finding someone who would appreciate our unique design and understand our sense of fun. We wanted to do some elements of the work ourselves but we were quite concerned that we wouldn’t find anyone who would accept that or would trust that we would follow through with it. I got in touch with Ash and the Create Building Co. Team after he was recommended to me by a mutual friend, and the rest is history. It was clear from the start that Ash had the kind of enthusiasm and drive that was going to achieve what we wanted. He has that kind of young energy that only really passionate people have. It’s fiery and enduring.
He and the team were committed to do a great job right from the beginning and they definitely achieved it. His attention to detail and overall execution of the finished house was fantastic. He really got our aesthetic and was very supportive of us doing bits and pieces ourselves so that we could achieve the outcome we wanted. It was clear that Ash and the team were proud of their efforts and the final result. We are beyond happy with our new home and we are so grateful to Ash and his team for giving us that.”
