Excellent result from a quality builder
We have just been handed over the keys to our new home and are very happy with the result. Overall the experience has been very positive and enjoyable, the team at Novus has been excellent to work with and the home was built ahead of schedule and on budget. Above all, the quality of the build was fantastic and we can hardly fault the workmanship - a testament to the attention to detail from an experienced construction team.
Our sales consultant Greg was one of the best aspects of the build process. He was very experienced technically on wha...Read more
t can and cannot be done and offered good advice on all aspects of the build. I was especially impressed with his work ethic, turning around our many queries and requests very quickly and at times even responding to emails on Saturday nights! His help was much appreciated in coming up with a practical floor plan that suited our requirements and budget. The pre-start process was very professionally led by Kelly. Kelly was very efficient in guiding us through the dozens of decisions, and all documentation and approvals were completed with minimal recycle which assisted us greatly with shortening our already tight schedule. Lara our client liaison had been attentive above our expectations, she always went out of her way to inform us of build progress and potential issues. All of the construction and variation documents were very well organised and promptly communicated, and we could always rely on the online portal to get the latest information on our home. Our supervisor Sam has been an absolute pleasure to work with. We were used to supervisors not answering calls or pushing back on requests, but Sam has never failed to respond to our many queries and requests throughout the entire construction period. All issues raised with Sam were dealt with promptly and professionally. Some issues were dealt with without us even having to raise them, which really was a pleasant change from our previous building experience! Novus is a quality builder with a dedicated team who has delivered our home at a high standard and a fair price. We would definitely recommend Novus to anyone looking to build their dream home!Similar opinion? Write a review on ProductReview.com.au!

Novus Magic - A Home to Be Proud Of
It is my absolute pleasure to provide a review for Novus/Vision homes.
Having never built before and being on my own, it was extremely important that I chose a Company I could not only trust but whos standard of workmanship and construction was of a high quality.
Having researched and spoken to many builders, my first experience and impression of Novus did not disappoint.
I immediately felt comfortable with Brian, the Sales Consultant who was genuine, sincere and helpful. Brian together with Allan in Planning & Design, worked with me to design ...Read more

Moving in a brand new home 4 months ahead of schedule!
We have just moved in our brand new home finalised by Vision 4 months ahead of schedule!
We could not believe and still can’t belive how quick and painless the building process has been from day one.
4 years ago we built our first home with another WA builder, and the whole experience was stressfull from day one, handover was 6 months late, the building process was so “blurred” no straight answers, updates, any issues were brushed off as “not included in the contract” so required an additional fee, tradies were not available and site supervi...Read more
sors changed three times, In short...a nightmare. We were therefore very careful with our selection of the builder this time. From the sales representative Michael’s multiple home visits (we had a newborn at that stage and the level of attention and commitment to meet us at our home with suggestions, updated plans ect was amazing), the painless specs selection at their office with Kelly, the flawless and professional site management by Scott and clear and concise handover with Lara, we were thoroughly impressed by Vision’s services!Similar opinion?

Who said building was a nightmare
After viewing other display homes, once we saw Novus Homes Esteem we were sold. The quality of the home and the finishing touches were exactly what we were looking for. We required a few changes to the original design as our block was narrow and the garage comes off the ROW. We met with designer Stephen Matthews a few times and we were very happy with the final design. We were nervous initially about building as we were told of many horror stories and advised not to build. We must say the building process with Novus Homes was a breeze. We...Read more
now wish that we had left Novus do the finishing internal touches that we decided to do. We enjoyed our prestart and right throughout the build we were kept up to date. Novus has an online portal which is a brilliant idea, this holds all our documentation and we could see exactly where the building process was at. We must compliment our construction supervisor Sam Bellissimo who always made himself readily available and answered every query we had stupid or not promptly. We would definitely recommend Novus Homes as they have a great team of passionate people and have built us a beautiful homeSimilar opinion? Write a review on ProductReview.com.au!

100% Confidence in Vision One Homes!
Vision One Homes was an absolutely amazing company to build with. This was our first time building and we obviously had no idea what we were doing. From start to finish we were looked after the entire way. We asked hundreds of questions and they were always answered quickly and promptly.
From the time we walked into the Vision One/Novus Display home in Waterford, we were made to feel at ease. We were never pushed into anything and they actually took the time to listen to what we wanted (Something other builders we were seeing at the time didn’...Read more

Our dream home has become a reality because of Novus Homes
I think the thing you most hope for when building is that you receive value for money, and that the end result is one you are happy with. We have achieved both through building with Novus homes.
We had some preliminary plans of our dream home which were shopped around to a few builders. As the design was a slightly more unusual build, we felt confident that Novus Homes was the builder who had the best knowledge and skill to bring our dream to life. Novus took our plans and developed them further until we had an unbelievably functional and be...Read more

Happy Customer
My wife and I recently received our keys to our beautiful two storey home in Port Coogee built by the team at Novus Homes.
We experienced a smooth and successful build, right from the beginning during planning and design with Stephen Matthews, pre-start and construction phase with our site manager Sam Bellissimo.
Through-out the process, the team listened to our specific needs and we had an excellent communication line at all times. We even had a well presented, easily read Novus web portal that gave updated build status and access to all forma...Read more

triplex unit development
This is my first development and I am overall impressed with how the units turned out. My first point of contact was through their Project Development Manager (Fab) and he was fantastic. A wealth of knowledge which guided me in what areas of the building project to spend and what I could leave in the future for upgrade. Vision One as a team were great with me being time poor, they were very prompt at email replies and returning phone calls at a time I when I requested due to work. The only minor difficult part of the process was Pre Start, ...Read more
there was less guidance and recommendations, some small errors in paperwork and less flexible in visiting their showroom. Once all the paperwork was sorted, the construction phase was very easy. My construction Supervisor was Sam he was great. I was surprised that he was pickier than me and spotted things at first and final inspections that I didn't! He has very high standards and I felt there was great care and attention to detail taken during the construction.Similar opinion? Write a review on ProductReview.com.au!

Thanks Novus Homes - it's been a pleasure building with you!
We are now proud owners of a double storey house built by Novus Homes. The process has been a challenging one since our original builder (Builton Group) went bankrupt late in the planning stage so NH had to take over. However, due to their skill and professionalism they managed to pull it off with minimum time waste and to our satisfaction. We have found NH through our friends who also had a great experience with heir build and unreservedly recommended NH.
A few challenges during the construction process were easily overcome as NH has been ve...Read more

Quality, trustworthy builder
Vision One Homes were a pleasure to deal with. We developed a very open and honest relationship with all staff including the sales rep, prestart, building progress liaison, and building supervisor.
The initial design stage was great, and the design team customised the plans to suit our block and suggested adjustments which we didn't think were possible. The end result is even greater than the display homes on which it is based.
The cost of our home was a little bit more than one other builder who offered similar design, size and specification...Read more

Cant say enough good things about Novus homes
Novus Homes are an exceptional builder and one that I can honestly say will build with again.
The team are knowledgeable, hardworking, honest and reliable.
They have long and lasting relationships with all of their trades and among other positive things it speaks volumes when it comes to inspecting the finished product.
Novus homes took on this job after the ground floor slab was poured due to the Builton insolvency. The job was tendered to a number of builders and it was decided that Novus were the most reputable, knowledgeable and trustworthy given the circumstances. That decision was a very good one and we couldn't be happier with the team at Novus.
Thanks guys!!

Absolute perfection!
From the first meeting with Michael through every stage of the build, the companies philosophy and attention to detail was followed by every trade on site throughout the build. The liaison with both Dannielle and Syd our building co ordinator and supervisor were both excellent and again their aim was to deliver to us the best service, build and quality that they stand by. We never experienced any issues from start to finish and any queries we had were handled immediately and efficiently. The final cost of our home was exactly the same as the estimate we were given prior commencing the build.

Dream home - Rural area
First of all i would like to start by saying how many comments we got on just the brick work- everyone who saw the progress was so amazed by the quality of the workmanship. We had a very different experience with building the home as we also included a granny flat that was a total different dwelling but vision one were really good and handled everything with the rules and regulations for this. They showed real diversity in the build. The supervisor and admin team was superb and i never had any trouble getting in touch with them, but what i r...Read more
eally liked was when something had a little issue the supervisor was all over it and already had steps in place to fix. All the finishes are what i had expected and looked amazing.

Fantastic experience with Novus!
We cannot be happier with our choice to build with Novus Homes. The quality of the build was first class - from start to finish, the service was also first class. Danielle (the Contracts Administrator) was there for us every step of the way. The support we received was brilliant. And Sid (the building supervisor) was also fantastic. The staff are so professional and helpful. We really cannot praise them enough. I'd highly recommend for anyone to build with Novus. We are over the moon with our dream home! Thanks Novus!!

Great Communication from start to finish
We had been planning a move to the city for quite some time and decided to build rather than buy. After looking at a lot of display homes over a 2 year period we kept coming back to Vision One's Elise display. It had the feel and the large family living area we were after. Plus the design detail and quality of finish was excellent and really stood them apart from other builders. We were impressed by all the staff assisting us from the design and planning stage, to the pre start part process and our site supervisor during the build was excellent...Read more
. During the whole process our changes and variations were all accommodated and nothing was to much trouble. We were always treated courteously and felt well looked after when communicating with all the Vision One Staff. This aspect of the build was very important to us as we were doing most of our dealings over the phone or on email and living in the country and building in the city did have us concerned before we built - we needn't have worried. We felt in the loop during the whole process and were always kept up to speed on progress. Another fantastic part of the Vision One process is having your own site supervisor. This being the first time we had built, it was a total reassurance having a someone we could talk to and show us through the process as well as regular site meetings to discuss the upcoming stages of the build. We highly recommend Vision One Homes and can't wait to enjoy or new family home for many years to come.Similar opinion? Write a review on ProductReview.com.au!

Delighted
Novus recently completed a 2 story home for me in North Beach. It was a custom design. Novus' design was innovative and stood out from the other designs I had received. It took great advantage of both the block's northern aspect and also the block size. I am delighted with the result. The home has great space, light, ventilation, outdoor areas and the 'welcoming feeling' I was looking for. The construction quality is first rate and many friends/family have commented on it.
The Novus people were fantastic. The General Manager kept overal...Read more

Excellent Experience with Novus Homes
We could not be happier with the experience we had with Novus Homes. This is the first time we have built, and people have often said to me you either love it or you hate it. Well, we loved it. It was very simple to love it because the team at Novus made it so easy!
Firstly, I didn’t know where to begin. As a complete rookie, I set off into the land of the internet, looking for some signs of where to start. I went to display homes and spoke to a number of sales reps from different companies, but I had no idea what I was doing. I noticed ve...Read more
ry quickly though that Novus had the nicest display home of the lot. Just to be sure, I went to their other display homes. Thumbs up. Fast forward a few months and I was sitting down with Fab after having sat down with a handful of other people from different companies. It was the easiest decision I’ve ever made. Fab was the only person I dealt with that took the time and explained everything in great detail to me. He was so efficient when it came to breaking down all the possible costs and different things we may encounter along the way. He wrote everything down for me really clearly and gave me actual number figures to work with too, as opposed to everyone else that just gave me ballpark figures. We were planning to knock down our house and subdivide our block so I wanted to make sure that we didn’t blow our budget. Fab was extremely thorough. We went through a bunch of ideas too and he went away with everything I had asked, came back to me in a day or two with a couple of different custom drawings. With a few minor changes, we were very quickly on track to having the final design of our dream home. I must really emphasise that this step was the most daunting for me - making the right decision of who to use to build our home. Novus has a great team - not only did I have all the figures I needed very clearly laid out for me, I had a great design done almost instantly, and very importantly, the costs were actually extremely reasonable. I found that their costs were significantly lower than many of the other builders, and this was a very pleasant surprise, given their impressive display homes. The pre-start process was very smooth. We already knew mostly what we wanted, so most decisions were really easy to make. We were supplied with coffee and biscuits, which always makes the decision making process more pleasant, and we were given plenty of options and ideas to work with. We had already been given a folder of things to consider and look at, so we came well prepared and were very happy with all the decisions we had made. If there was anything we had thought of after this, or any changes we wanted to make, a simple email was all it took to make instant changes that were hassle free. A smooth process over all. It was great being able to start the actual build. This is where the real magic began. I should mention that Novus was very efficient with all paperwork and applications for all the different approvals we needed with our council etc. In fact all of that was handled so smoothly that we hardly even noticed any of it. They had thoroughly checked our site after we had demolished and made sure that everything had been cleared and prepared properly. The build itself was fantastic. Everything was done efficiently and quickly, but not rushed. The trades were impressive and the workmanship was of the highest standard. The tiling was the best I have seen - Carlo did an outstanding job throughout the house. Cannot fault it! The build was finished months before we had been initially told it would be, which is always a huge plus. You’d expect that when something is done fast that the quality may not be as high, but I can confidently say that the finishing standard of the place was excellent. We get constant comments from visitors and even post-build trades that point out the top quality work that we have had done in this home.Similar opinion? Write a review on ProductReview.com.au!

Exciting two storey build. Paul and Angie on May 11, 2017
We scoured the newspapers, internet, magazines and spoke to everyone we knew who had built and finally found Novus Homes on the internet with the best design we were after.
From the first contact to the handover the experience has been great.
All tradies were good and cleaned up after themselves. There were no major issues with any of them.
Quality of the build was good all the way through.
Because builders selection of tiles was limited it was quite easy to spend more but everything comes at a price.
Prestart was excellent, the administrator was so helpful.
Even though the supervisor changed part way through the build the professionalism remained.
The home was completed ahead of schedule.
We are very happy with our new home.

I would love to hear about people's experience in building a custom home with Novushomes.

We built with Novus and found the sales rep fab... Pre-start was not the best experience -not much products to choose from. The build was not too bad only because we keep an eye on the build. As you can imagine no one looks after your home like you do... We had a few minor problems which we had to get owner of co on site to rectify problems but was sorted out promptly. We are currently looking at building again we Novus but find the rep not so prompt due to personal issues. Overall the workmanship was the best we had for example brick work, plasterer we're spot on and painter took great pride in his work. Cabinetry ok, plumber and electrician terrible but hoping they are no longer there... Value for $$
Best of Luck
