My experience of building a home through Hotondo Bendigo was fantastic. From my very first sales contact, through design & planning, and right… Read more
throughout the build, it was a great experience. Jenny on the sales side was honest and transparent and her experience allowed me to modify their base floorplan into exactly the solution that suited what I was looking for. Her passion and love for what she does is clearly in every dealing she has with you. Damian's communication on contract matters and his attention to detail in the final inspection was great and clearly he leads a great team. Kyle, who project managed the build was always responsive and I received regular status reports on the build. As I was relocating from Melbourne, Kyle was always accommodating in terms of site visits throughout the build. His communication and coordination of trades was first class. The reviews I read before signing with Hotondo gave me great confidence, and I have to say, my actual experience surpassed those expectations. Damian, Kyle, Jenny and the great trades they engage have delivered me a home that is everything I wanted. Obviously, I have no hesitation in recommending them!

to David Doak located at the Greenbank display homes all the way through to commencement of our build. The communication has been extremely professional with regular updates on what’s next into the process and not having to follow up on any part of the process. Two people of note have to be firstly David Doak, who was straight to the point, answered all our questions without beating around the bush especially with the financial side of things, he is easily the main reason we went with Burbank and we cannot sing his praises enough. The second person who we can’t rate highly enough is Karla Egan who managed all the back end, booking our appointments and making sure we were updated with all of the contract signing. Karla always made sure we knew exactly where our build was at, she always responded in such a kind, professional and timely manner. Both David and Karla made have made our experience seamless and it’s taken a huge amount of stress out of building a house. Frank and I feel incredibly lucky to have both David and Karla assist us with our build, so thank you very much.

his prompt on point pricing, ensuring to get the ball rolling ASAP. Chloe in the office demonstrated her experience by always having logistics organised well ahead of time not missing a beat. The design team showed their obvious experience and knowledge proving itself in the end result. Building Supervisor Cameron, with his calm approach and obvious building knowledge made the entire experience a pleasure to be a part of. Matt and his team doing an A1 job of the concrete providing a perfect canvas from start to finish. Sam, the hands on carpentry and construction side of STROUD did a class job from start to finish, as expected. Not to mention the trades unseen. All finishing trades delivering a fantastic result. On completion of our build I found it to be basically faultless. I am happy to say, we are already planning our next build with STROUD.

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!

couldn’t get off the rails!You get a fixed price contract. How many builders out there can do that? We starting our build when the war in Iran started.Everyone started talking about the shortage of fuel,materials,prices skyrocketing etc. We thought-here we go,buckle up for a rough ride! What happened? -“Business as usual mate!” Stage after stage,no excuses,no questions,no nonsense!
It was great to see that everyone we were dealing with had the competence,knowledge and workmanship starting with Wayne-our home consultant,great guy with tons of experience who can provide you with the right advice as you go,on the spot.
AllTradesmen working onsite-highly efficient,with great eye for detail,going through stage after stage . We recognise the quality of the work when we see it because we did couple of house Renos before and we know what we are talking about. Also what we like was the value for money you get with Dixon,if you want to make a change in the plan that’s OK and doesn’t cost you an arm and a leg! We got regular updates and communication from our supervisor Mike ,who knows what he is talking about and dealing effectively with all the people onsite!
Our message to all the people who work for Dixon and are associated with them-you should be proud of the great work you are doing and your contribution to this great Australian company,which is properly and efficiently managed ,providing peace of mind in this uncertain times to all Australian people chasing their dream of having their own home! Our message to all who are looking and planning to build-go and talk to Dixon and you will be glad you did!

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

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.

Exceptional Delivery on Our Architecturally Designed Home in Toorak We recently completed our build in Toorak with the team at VHAUS, and the result… Read more
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.

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.

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.
