to help — her communication has made the whole process feel much easier. Even when we faced issues with the kitchen team (INZ) and a period where the build stalled due to scheduling, Kirstie stayed proactive and supportive. She’s been a real bright spot in the journey, and we’re genuinely happy with the way she’s looked after us so far. We hope the rest of the project continues just as smoothly and that we keep working well together right through to completion.

administrative person, it’s been a wonderful experience which we are truly grateful for. This doesn’t mean there wasn’t the occasional ‘glitch’ but these were resolved quickly and fairly. During the important build phase both Riley and Mandy were very responsive to any questions and requests we had and we genuinely looked for to our weekly calls with Riley to update us on progress. This was very helpful to us as we don’t live locally and could not always do the ‘quick drive past to check on things’. Everyone has been very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. It is wonderful to deal with people who really seem to care. They are great ambassadors for McDonald Jones and we would have no hesitation in recommending McDonald Jones to anyone looking to build. Many thanks Jenny and Rob

Homes in Burrum Heads, QLD and the entire experience has been outstanding. While the contracting stage took a little longer than expected, the extra time ultimately worked in our favour. The team made sure we understood every detail of the contract and they worked with us patiently to refine and vary items until the final package sat comfortably within our budget. By the time we signed, we knew exactly what we were getting - no surprises, no confusion, just clarity and confidence.
Our Colour Selection Consultant was another highlight. She had an exceptional understanding of the product range and quickly grasped the style we were aiming for. Her guidance made the process enjoyable rather than overwhelming. There were plenty of upgrade options across different price points, but she helped us choose what genuinely suited our home and lifestyle rather than pushing unnecessary extras.
But the true standout of our entire build was our Site Manager, [Name Removed].
Because we weren’t local, communication was absolutely critical and [Name Removed] exceeded every expectation. He kept us updated with regular photos, clear explanations, and prompt responses to any questions we had. Any issue that arose was dealt with quickly and professionally. [Name Removed] attention to detail was exceptional; we had our own our private inspection where only very minor items needed attention and [Name Removed] even identified a few things we hadn’t noticed ourselves.
[Name Removed] treated our home as if it were his own, ensuring every trade delivered quality workmanship and that the final product met a genuinely high standard. Thanks to his leadership, the end result is a beautiful, well‑finished home that we absolutely love.
We are extremely pleased with the entire Coral Homes experience and would not hesitate to recommend them, especially if you’re lucky enough to have [Name Removed] managing your build.

Administrator, Carla Davies.
It has been a lengthy and at times complex approval process, but Carla has always been approachable, responsive and willing to follow up issues on our behalf. Carla has helped turn what could have been a very difficult process into a productive and positive experience.
We particularly appreciated her communication, practical approach and willingness to work through issues with us to get the project through to construction.
Thank you Carla for all your help along the way.

Communication was consistently excellent, with weekly updates and no question ever being too big or small. The team were flexible, welcoming and helped us with every little detail along the way.

agent I get to go through many homes and would say I have an eye for detail and have been accused of being to fussy. Felicity will keep you well updated along the way, makes sure you are well organised so there are no hold ups and is always happy to give her professional opinion on colours, tiles, etc. Deano is the most easy going builder to talk too. If you have an idea he will do his best to make it work for you. He is also willing to add in some suggestions that may save you some money or to create the look you want. They have a great bunch of builders with whom you can have a laugh, but they are highly professional on the job. Finally a great build can only come from having great subcontractors and the guys Integrity work with have been amazing. We are so grateful in the end result what you have created for our family. We look forward to having a beer or two with you on the front deck!

finishing. Before Diana took the supervision of our house, we had last our hope on Achieve Home can complete it. However when Diana took the supervision of construction since mid of March 2024, she was able to complete the house nearly from lockup stage to handover in 3 months. We are so happy with Diana and we wish best wishes for her upcoming projects. I believe Achieve Homes can bring its image back to the community working like Diana. Best wishes for the company.

project with honest information and good communication. Our construction supervisor was extraordinary , with a great team of long-term trades that he has used over the years. The biggest thing for us though was the week to week up dates from him and the open communication with the time frames he gave us. ( Neptune Homes don't let him go a credit to your business) Our only critisism is that the process between you signing a contract to construction is way to long winded and the HR paperwork needs to be a quicker process. We love our home and highly recommend choosing Neptune Homes to build your home. Thank you Neptune Home.

just jump on your phone anytime and see exactly where the builds at so youre not constantly stressing or chasing people for updates. They kept us informed every step of the way and would even flag things we hadnt even thought about ourselves. instead of rushing us into decisions they took the time to walk us through our options properly. It really felt like they cared about getting it right. had our handover not long after and were absolutely so happy with how it all turned out. Would 100% recommend them to anyone thinking about building.

Workmanship and build quality have been outstanding. I was fortunate to have the home independently inspected before settlement, and the inspector… Read more
repeatedly commented that it is well built, meets the relevant standards, and sets a benchmark they hope other builders will follow.
At the start of the process, the sales representative provided a clear introduction to the company—its values and the building materials used—reinforcing their focus on delivering a long-lasting home. They also quickly helped me identify a home that suited my needs. Throughout the settlement process, the sales representative was friendly and easy to deal with, consistently responsive, and did their best to accommodate my requests—including liaising with their solicitor to meet our requirements where possible.
Customer care has also been excellent: helpful and responsive in resolving any potential issues both before and after settlement. The handover presentation was thorough, covering all aspects of the home before I received the keys, along with a welcoming gift.
Kalwanu Constructions
Our experience with Kalwanu Constructions – This review has been pending for a long time, but we wanted to make it as informative as possible regarding our experience with Kalwanu… Read more
Constructions.
It’s been a year and a half since we moved into our new home, and now feels like the right moment to share our journey with Kalwanu—from our initial conversations and building planning to construction phases, the handover process, and finally settling in.
When my wife and I decided to own our first property, we were filled with excitement and anticipation, along with many questions about who to build it with and how to proceed. This was just before the Covid lockdown was announced.
We conducted extensive checks on various builders and read numerous customer reviews. We didn’t want a builder with predefined floor plans because we had specific ideas for our floor plan. Thus, we narrowed our search to builders who support custom builds.
Eventually, we shortlisted three builders, including Kalwanu Constructions. The initial interactions with the other two builders were purely business-minded and didn’t align with our expectations. However, our first interaction with Kalwanu was different. They showed immense patience in listening to our requirements and provided practical, fact-based solutions. This first impression played a major role in our decision to engage in deeper discussions with Kalwanu.
We signed the contract with Kalwanu and began the construction of our dream house.
It’s important to note the challenging circumstances during construction: Covid lockdowns, timber shortages, six weeks of continuous rain, and labor constraints. Despite these challenges, they kept us constantly updated on realistic completion dates.
Although we had our share of agreements and disagreements, the team’s willingness to listen to us and respond to our calls daily made a big difference. Unlike some friends and colleagues who struggled to get responses from their construction teams, we felt fortunate that Kalwanu always addressed our concerns promptly.
Our site supervisors were crucial during the entire construction process. Despite my blunt assessments regarding timelines, they always responded politely and took positive action. Over time, we developed a strong and positive relationship.
After overcoming various challenges, our house was completed and handed over to us.
Major callouts: - The entire Kalwanu crew are extremely professional and patient. - Correspondence and responses were timely. - The contractors they hire are highly skilled. - The workmanship is of high standards. - They do not cut corners; instead, they discuss technical issues and provide solutions. - The materials used are of high quality and discussed in detail at each construction phase.
Importantly, Kalwanu continues to support us even after handover. The Site supervisor checks in regularly to ensure everything is fine and promptly addresses any minor issues we have.
Thank you Team Kalwanu, for building us our first dream home.

has exceeded every expectation we had going in.
From the outset, the team brought clarity, structure, and confidence to what is often a stressful and unpredictable process. The collaboration between builder, architect, and consultants was seamless — there was never a disconnect between design intent and execution. The team genuinely understood the level of detailing required for a home of this calibre and delivered it with precision.
Their professionalism on site was equally impressive. The build was tightly managed, timelines were respected, and trades were well organised and clearly held to a high standard. Communication was consistent and transparent throughout, which gave us a huge amount of trust in the process.
The finish quality across the home is exceptional — from the joinery to the stonework to the architectural lighting, every element has been completed with care and intention.
VHAUS delivered not just a house, but a home that reflects the design vision we started with — and one that we’re proud to live in every day. Would recommend them without hesitation to anyone seeking a genuine, detail-focused builder.

cause severe damage to the rest of the house. Their care factor is zero. Had to gut 2 bathrooms 3rd on its way... They take no accountability or responsibility and they tell you that they are no longer in operation but they are still building and their signs are up everywhere. Seriously AVOID !! There are many houses in the Jervis bay area that are in the same predicament.

the time as purchasing the building lot. At the same time we paid for the basic landscape in frond of the house. The landscaping it is not being done. I wrote an email to their customer service. They did not bother even to responded. Be careful buying the building lot from Peet developers as they do not provide what you are paying for. They do not give you the option to exclude fencing and landscaping form the contract, but they do not deliver.
