Quote process was ridiculous – Not happy with the quote process. 1. Phone call at 8.15am Monday morning is just a tad early. 2. I book in time for a quote at 1pm Tuesday. I had to rearrange my work schedule to accommodate this time. 3. My whole morning is aligned to this 1pm time, I’m juggling work and kids. 4. 5 missed calls starting from 11.45pm. I was on a work call and I… Read more
kept being interrupted by this business to the point that my work call was cut off! 5. Then off my work call I see a message advising person coming just after 2pm when appointment was 1pm. 6. I confirmed that time was fine and expressed dissatisfaction that I had planned my whole day around a 1pm appointment! 7. Then I get another phone call! That’s when I said enough is enough I do t need this hassle of just getting a quote! If you are employing some business to help with appointment setting and Google search ads please rethink this approach. What a hassle just to get a quote. I can’t image the hassle of completing the job!

A pleasure to deal with competent builders – The work involved repairing part of the roof to prevent future leaks and replacing the ceiling of one room damaged by serious leaks. The response to the initial request was extremely prompt. The visit to assess the nature of the work required occurred promptly. The assessment was thorough and well informed and suggested solutions which other… Read more
contractors had not. The actual work followed soon after my agreement to the work proposed and the quotation. The standard of the work, which was in two parts, was high and efficient. A follow up inspection of the first part was requested and followed soon after the request was made, in fact within a couple of days. The standard of the second part of the work was high and completed quickly at the time promised. The request for payment for the work to be spread over several installments was readily agreed to.
Finding reliable contractors to undertake roofing work is not easy and in this cases has had to overcome some hurdles in terms of solutions proposed and cost. I was very pleased that this work fixed the problems and was done to a high standard by obviously highly competent workmen within a short time.
Dealing with AsNu on this occasion, as last time, was a pleasure.
Quality work, well co-ordinated and with attention to detail – We engaged ASNU for two jobs, one being the replacement of a large timber window frame that had fallen victim to rot over the years and the other being repairs to a barge board where all of our electrical connections were fixed. Dwayne coordinated the various trades (scaffolders, carpenters, painters, glaziers, electrician) very well and we were… Read more
kept informed as to the manner in which the work was to progress. All of the work was done professionally and the work site was thoroughly cleaned at the end of the 8 day exercise. We would like to especially acknowledge the work of the senior carpenter (Wesley?) who was amenable to any request and the painter who completed the work inside and out. He took special care in avoiding any paint getting onto new window runners. Our contacts with Yasmin, Jessie and Janine in the office were always positive, and I especially appreciated Yasmin taking on board some comments I made about the due date period shown on accounts payable. Overall we were certainly happy and appreciative of the work carried out.
Good work by good people – We recently took on the renovation of a terrace house that was in poor condition. The staff at AsNu were very helpful in providing options about what could be done and were clear about how much things would cost and how long it would take. The work crews were unfailingly considerate and professional, and the work done in rebuilding a collapsed… Read more
balcony and refitting windows to meet the needs of kitchen and bathroom renovations, as well as in interior and exterior paintwork were uniformly outstanding. Throughout the complicated process AsNu staff kept me abreast of work progress and allowed me to coordinate efficiently with other trades people, such as carpet layers, so that the whole renovation work moved smoothly forward. I would recommend AsNu without reservation for both the quality of their work and their consideration of the customer. The work was done on time, well executed and with no mess left behind. We are settling down now in a beautifully renovated house, and for that a big thank you to AsNu.

Service that is Over and Above – We have used Geoff and ASNU for several jobs. I have always been impressed with the attention to detail, taking the time to diagnose problems properly and give a long lasting fix. They have done high quality paint jobs both interior and exterior and dealt with the associated damp issues. Most recently we had an insurance dispute regarding water… Read more
coming through our roof. Geoff took the time to liaise with the insurer and the work has been fantastic. Not a drop of water has come through since despite many torrential downpours.
Excellent job – We used ASNU to paint the exterior of our centre. The team did a terrific job on a very old and challenging building but their attention to detail, advice and experience showed all through the process. Would happily use them again.
Balcony rebuilt – I am very happy to have engaged ASNU to rebuild the front balcony. Andrew, Alex and Mark did a superb job with the building and painting. I am very impressed with their professionalism and high standards. They arrived early each day and advised the work approach as needed. All old materials were removed and area cleaned. Will consider for future work.
Negative reviews
overall workmanship quality of work and communication – Poor communications would not answer queries, Work started 5 months after deposit paid and only after MANY phone calls. Even now after work completed still not answering queries re defects with work. We have now found our new front door that was hung by a plumber on a hinge where the screws just spin and cannot be tightened. We will now have… Read more
to pay someone to fix same and other defects. We still have leaks in our roof after spending thousands of dollars to fix same. The quality of the painting - non preperation- and actual painting leads a lot to be desired
Upgrade of pergola – Found this group on a google search. The work they did was great. I particularly liked that the carpenter had an apprentice with him, and was very good at training.
Disrespectful and poor workmanship – Have never seen more poorly-skilled painters, or had the displeasure of dealing with more obnoxious trades in my life. I guess you get what you pay for, although they didn't need to be arrogant, dismissive and rude to everybody in the building. Had to apologise for their behaviour to all tenants and ended up harming my relationship with them because of these pelicans. Never again.

Relining an old roof attic – David arrived early each day and advised his work approach and materials to be removed and replaced. The entrance room floor was covered in drop sheets.

The guys at ASNU were amazing – The guys at ASNU were amazing. They were friendly, responsive and communicated all steps of the process to repair my balcony.

This was a little pricey but all the work was completed on a timely and efficient basis. Staff were knowledgeable and friendly. The work was completed to a high standard. I’s happily recommend them and use ASNU again. Show details

A number of different jobs well done on an old terrace – ASNU came quickly to quote and then scheduled the work in a timely manner that fitted in with us. We required roof repairs, a large exterior wall painted and shelving installed in the laundry and ASNU has a team to do all we needed. They were flexible when we changed requirements and also made helpful money saving suggestions for work that could be done while the scaffolding was up. We are very happy with the results.

The steps that Wesley did look like they were meant to be. He worked on the… Read more
steps to perfection. The painting job that Jordan did is, as always, excellent, because he pays attention to detail and is a perfectionist. Thank you both for the great job you did. And thank you AsNu for being prompt to do a job and sending out such great trades people. Susan Lane Cove
Great customer service, communication and workmanship – From start to finish the whole experience was fantastic. Quick to respond, quick to start work, quick to finish and the standard was high throughout. Dave and Wesley repaired and rebuilt the balcony and it's better than the original. They were also really patient and kind to my inquisitive kids and puppy. I highly recommend!
