Granny Flat Joy – We have just completed a Granny Flat with Summit and could not be happier. Our journey started with Anna who took us through our pre-start. Nothing was too much trouble as she explained what everything was and took us around the display studio, making sure we understood what products were available. Once we were at site we were told what to expect… Read more ·  1

and what the diary was. We knew what trades to expect on site and if any delays why this happened. Our build took 8 months from slab to handover.

The project continues – Finally got a slab down. I thought maybe things would get better however bricks turn up, but then no more deliveries due to rain flooding the access. Turns out drainage we paid Summit for was not connected by Summit. Now the ground is too wet for them to finish the drainage. So more delays and a new slab with piles of bricks decorating it. Good job Summit keep up the planning. Show details

so far, so good – So far I am satisfied with the attention I have received from Drew, our design consultant. I am at the waiting for planning approval from the shire stage. Every email and question has been answered quickly by Drew. Show details ·  1

Practical and easy process – Since we reached out to Drew we have had a great experience with him and his team. Very practical and pragmatic about what was involved, guided us easily through the process, and helped out with all of our random queries and changes in a really efficient and timely manner. Show details ·  1

Floreat Granny Flat – Extremely happy with the eventual design and customisation of the new granny flat. Drew Murray's experience helped us get what we needed and the building design compliments the 1935 existing home. Nothing was too hard and any changes we required were seen to immediately. Show details ·  1

Excellent service, great designs – We have had a great experience working with Summit to design and build a beautiful granny flat in our back yard. The designs available are beautiful, and our design consultant Drew adjusted our selection to perfectly suit our somewhat unusual requirements. Mum is calling it her granny mansion. The Summit show room where we chose colours and… Read more ·  1

interior fittings was great, a really enjoyable day. I would happily recommend Summit if you are choosing to build a granny flat. It is going to be nicer than our original house!

A Good Experience – We have traveled a journey with Drew, our Design Consultant which has been fantastic. He is very knowledgeable, helpful, informative and most of all just a nice guy to work with. We thoroughly recommend linking up with him if you are in the market to downsize. Show details ·  1

Professional and knowledgeable – Drew has been great through the whole process thus far. I have used Summit on a previous in-process build and similarly his experience, knowledge and patience was much appreciated, in an area somewhat new to me. Show details ·  1

Our perfect Granny Flat – Extremely happy that we chose Summit to build our Granny Flat. We can't speak highly enough of our Design Consultant Drew Murray. His advice and design ideas were invaluable. He was very patient with us and spent a large amount of time looking into the feasibility of various properties our daughter and son-in-law were considering as a… Read more ·  1

purchase. His design for the layout of the building was spot-on. This is especially obvious now that we can see the final product. The build quality looks to be excellent. All the tradies we observed were very professional. Our Construction Supervisor, Dean Burridge has gone above and beyond what we could have wished for. He has been very patient and obliging with our numerous queries and requests. He has done an excellent job pulling all this together - especially considering the current climate (Covid, labour shortages, building material shortages etc.). Any issues we raised with him were promptly dealt with. We are more than happy to recommend Summit to anyone who is considering building.

The right sizer done right – There was a difference between Summit and the other builders we approached from the very first meeting. While other builders were essentially ‘yes’ men, Drew, our Design Consultant got a sense of our lifestyle before discussing our design. The result was a plan that needed very little modifications. This was our first granny flat - size build, so… Read more ·  1

it was essential to have a consultant that was able to reset our expectations when it came to size and help us understand how to utilise space in a way that we couldn’t have done on our own. The actual build was also painless with our supervisor Rob and Client Admin Sarah Jane always there to explain things and keep us informed. The tradesmen were top notch and we’re so happy with the results

Granny Flat – My family and I decided we wanted to build a granny flat in the back garden. Having been involved in a number of construction projects I wanted a builder who delivered a quality service and would listen to our input during the design development and build stage of the project. Having researched a range of companies in the granny flat market we… Read more ·  1

decided to choose Summit based on the end-to-end service they promoted. At no point during the design and build process did we regret that decision.

During the design development process we had a number of variations, additions and deletions from the standard. This also included changing our mind on design issues on several occasions! At every point during the design stage (either in the finalisation of the plans or the choosing of the final products) we were treated professionally and benefited from the input from Summit’s staff. I would particularly commend Drew Murray who engaged with my family to ensure we achieved the best outcome and he treated the project as though it was his own granny flat. We benefitted greatly from Drew’s professional experience on many other projects.

Drew set a high benchmark of professionalism and this was equalled by Matt Castafaro, our Site Supervisor and also Danica Watts our Client Administrator. When you undertake a project like this there are lots of questions and issues that require an answer or quick resolution. Matt was always available to respond to our questions and queries and the scheduling of all the trades was seamless. If an issue arose Matt and Danica were always proactive in advising us.

The delivery of our granny flat on time and on budget AND at the quality we wanted is a credit to Summit. In summary, we have been extremely happy with the level of service we received from Summit Homes and would have no hesitation in recommending their services to others (as we have done).

Fantastic – I felt I wanted to email you to express on behalf of myself and my parents how pleased we have been with the granny flat build. The whole process has been seamless right from the initial consultation through to the final walk around with Nathan. The quality of the build and the professionalism of all the trades is to be commended. We have been… Read more ·  1

treated with the upmost respect when we have visited the build to see the progress. I wanted to make a special mention about Nathan who has been our site supervisor throughout the build. He was very knowledgeable and planned the progress with precision, one trade after another. Whenever we asked what trade/work was happening next he had the information at his finger tips and that is exactly what happened. He is a genuine gentleman who had time for my aging parents questions, and answered and returned calls when promised. My husband and I have experience of building two houses in Australia (not by Summit) and Nathan is certainly a high quality supervisor. The relationship with the supervisor can either make or break any future referrals, we will be singing your praises and would not hesitate to refer to friends who are interested in building a granny flat. Thank you.

Granny Flat for my Mother In law – Recently had a Granny Flat built by Summit. Really happy with the finish and quality of work. Built on time and any small problems or delays during the build, our Site Supervisor was quick to get onto to get things back on track. Pre-start was a breeze with our Contract Administrator coming up with some really good ideas to make more efficient use of our limited space. We would happily recommend Summit Granny Flats to friends and family.  Show reply

Granny Flat for my sister – I feel that I can commend both Summit and the supervisor for the job done. The job took a bit longer than planned, as much our delays as anything. The process was smooth and comparatively easy from the onset, from initial consult through to completion. Our supervisor has always been easy to contact and able to explain and sort out any problems… Read more ·  1

of which there were very few.

I would be happy to recommend Summit Granny Flats to anyone making enquiries about contracting for the same as we did.

Now a few weeks since completion and my sister moving in, and she remains delighted with her choice.
