THE CHALLENGES

Home Renovation/Rear extension to this Semi-detached Home in Maroubra.

The original home was lacking natural light and space for a growing family, these were the two main objectives for the renovation works. Firstly the external elements like natural light and air-flow were to be considered and then also council rules/regulations in this semi-detached home where these elements can often be hard to find. Knowing the sun’s daily movements and the different directions of the breeze throughout the year were key elements of the design.

The Home now has an amazing use of space, natural light and the summer breeze flows right through. We have transformed it into a contemporary home really focusing on bringing the outdoors in, as the owners love spending most of their time outdoors, they wanted to feel like they were outside even when they were actually inside the home as much as possible.

OUR CLIENT SAYS

When we first decided to go with Ecobuild Construction that decision was based on our impression of David, his willingness to do an “eco-build”, word of mouth and having looked closely at work the company had done before. We took our time with the decision because we had been treated poorly by another builder before.

Thankfully, we made the right decision. We are very happy, and eternally grateful, to David and the guys who built our house (thanks especially to Rob, Scott & Jamie). We haven’t looked back. The things that impressed us most were the hard work, the honesty and the quality of the work. I’m typing this as I hear our kids play in the new house. Its great and so was the build. On time and just quality. Thank you to David. We really appreciate everything you did for us.

Ecobuild Construction could not have been more professional or responsive to our needs. Ours was a relatively small project and we were initially concerned we might not get the time of day. Nothing could have been farther from the truth.

Appointments were kept like clockwork. Deadlines and budgets were agreed upfront and met without issue. Service was cheerful. Final quality was excellent. We could not have been happier and recommend Ecobuild without hesitation.

We couldn’t be happier with the service and quality of work received from Ecobuild Construction.

Throughout the entire Design to Construct process the Ecobuild Construction team were professional yet friendly and approachable. From the beginning, they took a lot of time to understand what we were after and was always available to discuss potential variations or answer our amateur questions. The attention to detail was extremely impressive and we wouldn’t hesitate to use Ecobuild Construction in the future.

We used Ecobuild Construction to Design and Construct a second story addition & renovation to our home. From the word go David was most helpful in explaining how the building process would work.

We would have to say Ecobuild’s customer service was spot on and would be a strong selling point if we were to recommend them to others.

The quality of the workmanship on the job was great we have been impressed with the way Rob and David controlled the tradesmen during the building phase.
My wife and I had not done a major renovation before but due to David’s calm and easy going nature a lot of the stress went out of the project. We are delighted with our second story addition and love the extension to our living area on the back patio. Thanks for a great result Ecobuild,

Jonathan & Alicia: Aboud Ave, Kingsford.

We wanted to put in writing our thanks for the work you did at our house recently. We were impressed not only that the work came in on budget as discussed but also that you managed to get the work done in the time you had estimated – even around Christmas time. It’s not often that things go so smoothly.

Thank you for sharing your insights with us when we were making decisions , it was so helpful to have your expertise and experience to guide us. We are grateful to have a structure that is not only beautifully crafted but actually withstands the howling North Maroubra winds as well.

We thought the boys who were working with you on the job should be commended also. Not only did they do a great job , but they were always polite when they were here as well as considerate about packing away and leaving the house in a safe manner.

It was a pleasure having the opportunity to work with someone in the building profession with such skill and integrity.

Thanks again, Sylvia and David

I have known David the founder and managing director of Ecobuild Constructions for the past 10 years. David has worked for me on a number of residential projects including my residence and an investment property he has also completed work for a number of my colleagues based on my referral.

David runs an efficient and client focused business where his timeliness, attention to detail and problem solving certainly make him stand out. I have referred to David to build, maintain and manage small and large residential building works. Most recently, I engaged David to undertake extensive building works and project manage a complete renovation to an art deco style apartment in Darling Point with works ranging from renovating the flooring, ceiling, walls, and to design and install a kitchen, laundry and bathroom.

David was under time pressure to have this job completed as I had tenants ready to move into the apartment.  He handled the situation and the various interactions required with professionalism and the finished product was of very good quality and within budget.

David has exceptional communication skills which is an outstanding attribute for the type of business he runs. I would have no hesitation in referring David and his team at EcoBuild Constructions.
