My build is still ongoing, but so far the experience has been reasonably smooth. Communication has been good and any questions I’ve had have been addressed in a timely manner. Olesia has been professional and helpful throughout the process, making things easier to manage from my side. As with most builds, there have been some delays and… Read more
adjustments along the way, but overall I’m satisfied with how things are being handled at this stage.
I will provide another update once the project is completed.
We’re still in the early stages of our building journey, having settled on a design and now waiting on the full set of drawings and fixed pricing. We’re looking forward to progressing through selections and into contract. So far, the experience has been very enjoyable. Working with Anthony, our New Homes Consultant has been smooth and seamless… Read more
from the beginning. He’s been genuinely helpful, incredibly accommodating and always willing to go the extra mile to support us through the process.
Anthony is a big reason we’ve come back to Burbank. Our previous build unfortunately didn’t proceed due to land issues, but the positive experience we had especially with Anthony gave us the confidence to return. We’re excited to continue the journey and hope the experience remains just as positive through the next stages.
Great home journey so far with Burbank team. The support provided was well coordinated. Team is very helpful and have great unparalleled knowledge and customer service. Looking forward to a successful home journey with Burbank. Show details

Akshay has done an excellent job in customizing our house plan exactly according to our needs and preferences. From the beginning, he patiently listened to our ideas and thoughtfully incorporated them into the design, ensuring that every detail reflected what we were looking for in our dream home. His design sense is impressive, and the final… Read more
plan has resulted in a beautiful and good-looking home layout that is both practical and aesthetically pleasing. What truly stands out is his outstanding customer service. Akshay was always approachable, responsive, and proactive in addressing our queries.
His continuous follow-up, dedication, and commitment to customer satisfaction made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We sincerely appreciate his professionalism and effort in delivering such a well-designed home.
We highly recommend Akshay to anyone looking for a thoughtful designer who truly cares about understanding and fulfilling the client’s needs.
I highly appreciate Samantha and Simon’s contribution to this amazing house. Samantha was always there to support and work around to give us the best build as we pictured on paper to reality. Simon always was understanding and helped us a lot with knowing the updates of the build.
I am very grateful to the whole team of Burbank and highly recommend anyone to build your house with Burbank. A company known for its fast and efficient work!
What an amazing experience so far with the Burbank Team! Started our journey with Trent, our new home sales consultant. Nothing but honesty and genuine advice which helped us pick the perfect floor plan without the need to make to many changes (Bardon 217) didn’t try up selling us any unnecessary stuff or features. Just good honest advice. Also… Read more
helped us secure our block of land. If it wasn’t for him we wouldn’t even be building. As first home builders we could not have been luckier to get Trent.
Our contract signing with Linda was the shortest part of our experience but she still took us through every part and explained everything without any issues. Even answered all our questions we had without and hesitation or issue. Was just another amazing part of the process.
Our electrical selection with Hayley was also a breeze, she was very knowledgeable around the correct amount of lighting to add to the home and where to add extra PowerPoints. Was also great at assisting in relocating and adding two way switches so once we are in the home it’ll be much easier to turn things off and on. Without her knowledge we wouldn’t have thought of half the stuff we changed.
Our colour selection was handled by Marissa, this was my partners favourite part of the process. Marissa was amazing at guiding us on our colour selection. Making sure none of the colours clashed and blended well while also making sure we were within our guidelines for the estate. Marissa had amazing knowledge when it came to selecting Trims and accessory’s.
Now we are just waiting for land registration but the whole process with Burbank so far has been flawless thanks to the Team at Burbank. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking at building.
We had a very smooth and positive experience with our build from start to finish. The entire process was well-managed, and everything progressed much better than we expected. A special thanks to Akshay, who was absolutely outstanding throughout the journey. He consistently went above and beyond to support us, always being responsive, helpful, and… Read more
genuinely committed to making the process as stress-free as possible. His guidance and dedication truly made a big difference.
We would also like to thank our site manager, Tanya, who was incredibly efficient and proactive. She was very quick in getting things done and ensured everything moved along smoothly on site.
We really appreciate the professionalism and effort from the entire team, and we’re very happy with the overall experience. Would definitely recommend!
Fast good quality. The build took about 6 months, with the initial planning /contract taking about 9 months. The communication could have been slightly better but overall very happy. Well managed and on budget. Show details
My favourite team — Em, Tony and Burbank team! Thank you for completing my very first home. It has truly been a perfect experience. I’ve already shared my thoughts about Em before, but I want to say it again — she supported me so much throughout the entire journey. I would especially like to thank Tony, our site supervisor. Despite my limited… Read more
English and endless questions at all hours, he always answered patiently and managed the entire build perfectly. The construction time was much faster than we expected, yet the result is a beautiful and high-quality first home. He carefully checked every detail and gave us so much valuable advice. He even took care of things we didn’t notice or didn’t know to ask about. I genuinely feel like I learned so much from him during this process.
Even after we received the keys, Tony and the Burbank team continued to support and care for us. They are not only professional but also truly caring — more than any company we have experienced. I sincerely hope many others get the chance to experience this as well.
Because this was our first home, we put all our heart and attention into it. The Burbank team gave us an experience that exceeded all expectations. Thank you again.
If we ever have the opportunity to build again in the future, we would choose them without hesitation.
These are not empty words — they come from genuine experience and honest feelings.
Without question, they are a top-quality builder.
Once again, thank you to the Burbank team and especially to our site supervisor Tony.
If you are planning to build a home, I strongly encourage you to visit and speak with them.
Excellent job from pre construction team. Hayley fulaton and Jessica Stripic did a fantastic job. Will update about the construction team when they have completed the job. Thank you very much team. Show details
Great build and great experience. Totally stress free experience with Burbank. I would like to mention Akshay’s help throughout the project from selecting the home design to finish ghe construction. Akshay knows what the client wants in their build. Show details
We went to Burbank Edge Studio for our colour selections and met with Kristine Sing, our interior designer, who welcomed us, made coffee and took us through the entire process very professionally. I have seen designers get frustrated especially when we ask too many questions and take our time when choosing selections but Kristine was always… Read more
helpful, smiling, and explained everything we asked her in simple language. There was a lot of things which we hadn’t even considered, such as, size of windows for the raised ceiling, facade material, bench-top, cabinets, cupboards and drawers for kitchen, linen and wardrobe, which Kristine reminded us about. We told her we wanted to keep costs down so she showed us different options to choose from. She is sending us quotes for different options so we can pick and choose what we want. A few hours felt like minutes and the whole process was seamless and straightforward especially when we had travelled all the way from Canberra for the selections and were flying back the same afternoon.
I want to shout out a big thanks to Kristine and also to Hayley Tupaea who was equally kind and helpful and assisted with electrical selections. The initial journey has been great so far from Paul Pereira who was our sales consultant, then Kristine and Hayley. I hope this great experience continues throughout our journey until build is complete and the handover. Thanks Burbank team for your help and assistance and more importantly your kind and helpful nature.

Our experience with Burbank was a journey of highs and lows. The Highlights: Pre-Construction & Site Management The standout of our journey was Akshay. From the very beginning, he was outstanding—responsive, helpful, and genuinely committed to making the process stress-free. He managed our custom design changes seamlessly and painted a great… Read more
picture of what building with Burbank could be. Similarly, our construction phase was excellent thanks to our supervisor, Tom. He was incredibly efficient, proactive, and ensured the build was completed ahead of schedule. Even when minor issues arose, his communication and follow-up were top-tier. Areas for Improvement: Admin & Gallery Unfortunately, the middle of the process was frustrating. The Admin phase lacked proactive communication; we felt we had to push constantly for updates. We actually know people who chose other builders specifically because of delays in Burbank’s admin department. The Gallery/Design appointment was also a disappointment. We received very little creative input, and several promised items were missed in the final documents, which became impossible to change once construction began. Additionally, the selection felt dated; we actually saw more variety when we built our first home six years ago. Summary We are very grateful for the professionalism and effort shown by Akshay and Tom. If the Admin and Gallery teams can match the standard set by Sales and Construction, the experience would be world-class.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Excellent Experience with Burbank Homes I had a fantastic experience building with Burbank. The entire construction process was smooth, well-managed, and transparent from start to finish. The team consistently communicated updates, addressed any questions promptly, and ensured everything stayed on track. Most importantly, the… Read more
home was delivered on time, exactly as promised — something that truly reflects their professionalism and reliability. The workmanship and attention to detail throughout the build were impressive, and the overall journey was stress-free.
Highly recommend Burbank to anyone looking for a builder who delivers quality, efficiency, and great customer service.

Providing feedback for Burbank Homes as a first home buyer: - Staff are very professional, they are competent in their respective roles (Home Sales, Construction, Customer Care). - They gave meaningful and practical advice, took the time to listen and to address our queries and concerns. - Pricing is competitive compared to other builders, and… Read more

Overall, Burbank has kept its promise to see our build through. Our sincere thanks to the following for making our first home build a smooth and rewarding experience: - Home Sales Consultant Akshay (special thanks for helping us find the right lot and to choose the home design that best suits our needs) - Construction Site Managers Tanya and Tom - Customer Care Coordinators Lisa and Simon
We recently completed the contract and admin process with Burbank. Our amazing sales consultant Andrew helped bring our vision to life and we couldn’t thank him enough. The admin team, Kimberly and Linda, were lovely to work with. Before colour selection, Burbank gave us a studio tour. A few days before colours we received a link to their many… Read more
options, which helped us narrow down our choices. This was a great feature! I’d suggest sending the link out earlier.
Kate, our colour consultant, was fantastic. She made the day feel special and shared her valuable advice. We weren’t rushed and the whole experience was fantastic. We’re so happy with our colour selections. We then met Hayley for our electrical appointment, who was very detailed and gave great advice. I also appreciated the transparent pricing throughout the process from initial inquiry to colour selection and contract.
Building with Burbank was a stress free experience. We had the best sales coordinator Deepak Jain, the first time we’ve met him, we were convinced that Burbank would be the builder for our first home. Deepak answered all our queries and assured us that the house will be ready before Christmas 2025. Indeed Burbank was true to their promise, we had… Read more
the house October. From the color selection, Edge the staff were really helpful and friendly especially to our interior designer Cacie. She help us chose the right colors, she made the overwhelming journey enjoyable.
My husband and I are very impressed with Burbank for delivering a stunning and great quality dream home of ours.
I would like to thank all the staff who helped us build our house, Depak Jain accommodating as always, just a whatsapp away and concerns are always addressed. Brodie Paten and Simon Vu, making sure the logistics of our house were up to date.
Fraidon Razaei, our site manager very friendly and cool as always. Knowledgeable and efficient with the job.
Well done Burbank and thank you so much for helping us build our dream home.

Our experience with Burbank Homes had a rocky start. The admin process was slow, there were delays, and we faced pricing and design errors. We also had a disappointing experience with the salesperson, which added to the early frustrations. Despite all that, the end result was a beautiful and perfect home—from the painting to the finishes,… Read more
everything was done to a high standard. The real hero of our build was Matt West, our site supervisor. He was incredibly communicative, friendly, and easy to talk to. Matt worked tirelessly to ensure everything was done properly and always made time to answer our questions. His dedication and professionalism made the entire building journey smoother and more enjoyable. Matt is the reason we’re giving Burbank Homes 5 stars.
We also want to acknowledge Whitney, our customer care coordinator, who helped resolve the pricing and design issues. While communication was sometimes slow, she did assist in getting those problems sorted.
Overall, we’re thrilled with our new home and grateful to Matt for making the experience a positive one. If you're building with Burbank, we strongly recommend working with Matt West—he truly goes above and beyond.

Burbank took about 18 months (6 months overdue from the contract due date) to build my home, which was completed in August 2018. I had a "site supervisor from hell" who used poor quality tradies, some of whom I suspect were either unqualified at… Read more
their trade, were apprentices, or were simply very cheap tradies. The quality of workmanship overall was terrible, with over 20 defects identified by my highly qualified independent expert. Some examples of the defects are: (a) Render had cracks and was inconsistent in colour - because some of the rendering was performed months apart, (b) Toilet wasn't centred and was positioned too close to the wall, (c) Ceiling exhaust fans were a different brand to that specified in the contract, (d) Acoustic soundproofing in the ceiling was missing, (e) The brickwork was water-stained because no temporary downpipes were used during construction, (f) There were no power points above the kitchen benchtop in the upstairs kitchenette, (g) Some of the capping and flashing fixing was non-compliant, (h) Several control joints as per the plans were missing or rendered over, (i) The damp-proof course was non-compliant, as it did not extend beyond the face of the brickwork, (j) The rainwater tank pump was installed above the tank instead of on the ground! Burbank disputed and refused to fix these, and some of the required works were simply not completed, which is why I eventually took Burbank to VCAT. After about 2 years of playing the VCAT game with Burbank and their external lawyers, VCAT ordered Burbank to pay me $60,000+. Needless to say, I would never build with Burbank Homes again. They were totally unreasonable to deal with.
Follow-up · I fixed most of the defects using my own tradies. However, some of the defects were simply too expensive to fix properly (i.e. to avoid visible patch-up jobs), and were much more expensive to fix than the amounts awarded to me by VCAT, so I just put up with them, although I remain disappointed. The VCAT process was lengthy and drawn out. Burbank's… Read more
Absolutely amazing experience pre-build, during and post-build. Every phone call answered, regular inspections with Supervisor, cannot fault my experience with Burbank at all. Very happy with decision to build with Burbank after previous very bad experience. Show details
Follow-up · cannot fault Burbank, knowing any query, small or large, will be taken care of is of great comfort. First-name basis phone calls a bonus too. inspections a breeze. my previous experience with an awful builder in 2024 made me extra cautious, huge effort to trust again in 2025 with another builder but I needn't have worried. totally recommend Burbank.

Negative reviews
My mum had her house built by Burbank worst decision. Terrible build the workmanship is not up to standard. Our bathroom ceiling is not attached to the framework and has sagged and about to fall. They cracked a pipe which has caused the house to sink and basically crack half of the house. They cracked a wardrobes had to be fixed not long after… Read more
the build as they nailed into the plaster not the studs. They have fixed the cracks but they continue to crack as they refused to fix the real issue which is the slab cracked due to them breaking the pipe. They only band aid fix issues and blame everything but themselves for the problems that arise from their poor builds. We had insurance come to check the house and they said the issues are from the poor build from Burbank. We have reached out again to have them correct the issue but again they brushed it off. I would not use this builder if you want your house to last.
We have had an extremely disappointing and concerning experience with Burbank regarding a major installation defect in our home. After purchasing the property, we discovered a toilet leak. The home was only around six years old and still under warranty, so we contacted Burbank to investigate. Their Home Care Inspector advised that the leak was… Read more
caused by a “blockage,” which was clearly incorrect. We were later told the issue had been “fixed,” even though the problem we reported had not been addressed.
The leak continued. When Burbank returned for a second inspection, it became obvious the issue was far more serious. At that point, we were suddenly told the home was no longer under warranty and that the problem was supposedly due to “wear and tear.” We were also told Burbank would only reassess the matter if we paid for an independent plumber’s report.
We did exactly that — and the independent investigation confirmed a serious installation defect. A cable tie and incorrect installation were identified as the cause of the leak, and the plumber advised it had likely been leaking since day one. Had the toilet been installed correctly, this issue would not exist.
Despite this clear expert evidence, Burbank refused to take responsibility. During their visit, they cut open the wall and found mould throughout the cavity, yet once the extent of the defect became obvious, they attempted to disengage entirely. They initially treated it as a warranty matter, but when it became clear the repair would be substantial, they tried to walk away.
This experience shows a lack of accountability, inadequate investigation, and disregard for health and safety. When you build a home, you expect proper workmanship and a builder who honours their warranty obligations. Burbank has failed on both fronts.
We cannot recommend Burbank to anyone seeking quality construction or reliable after‑sales support. We are now escalating this matter further and expect we may not be the only ones who have faced this level of neglect.
Choose your builder wisely.
Terrible service provided after handover. The warranty they advertise feels meaningless, and the after-handover support team appears more focused on avoiding responsibility than honouring warranty commitments. We experienced a gas leak, which should be covered under the plumbing warranty. A building inspector attended the site but refused to… Read more
properly assess the issue. Instead, we were told that because the house was handed over a year ago, the leak could be due to “anything,” and therefore not their responsibility. After receiving no response from Burbank for two weeks, we engaged an external plumber to fix the issue. The plumber confirmed that the leak was caused by poor workmanship, and further internal leakage had also developed. Once Burbank learned that we had involved an external plumber, they informed us that this action voided our warranty, and they would not be investigating the matter any further. Second issue: The brickwork on the house has started to crack and break, which appears to be a structural problem. It has been two months since we reported this, and we still have not received a response from Burbank. Overall, the workmanship has been poor, and the builder consistently avoids addressing issues. They delay responses for as long as possible and look for ways to dismiss problems instead of fixing them. We paid a premium price believing that Burbank, as a large builder, would deliver quality work and stand behind their warranty. Unfortunately, this has not been the case.
