"It’s now shy of 6 months since we moved into our new home and to say we are totally happy is an understatement, the house is exactly the home we wanted. It’s a credit to yourself and your team. From the beginning you connected with our architect’s (Miles Thorp Architects) and ourselves fully appreciating the brief and our desired outcomes. The regular back and forth with the architect’s and ourselves, consulting, fine tuning and adding your wealth of buildability knowledge to the project enhanced our outcomes both physically and commercially. As you know we are also involved in commercial construction and have a deep understanding of quality workmanship and to your credit we are here now 6 months in and have absolutely no defects whatsoever. Thank you for all your efforts, your patience, the trials and tribulations to deliver a wonderful home we will enjoy for many years to come."
"Stuart Emmins, Angus Martin and the Corvus Primesite Pty Ltd team did an amazing job of collaborating with architects Benn + Penna to transform the vision for our Turramurra home into a stunning reality. Their client-centric approach, attention to detail, and willingness to find creative solutions exceeded our expectations. Sue and I are truly grateful for the focus and commitment of Stuart, Angus and their colleagues to deliver an exceptional finished product despite the challenges posed by COVID lockdowns and the incessant Sydney rain! We very much look forward to working again with Corvus Primesite Pty Ltd and Benn + Penna on a future project."
"Dear Stuart and Stallone, Thank you for bringing the design for Paddington to life. It was a small space with a few challenges. I really appreciated the problem solving for some of the quirks of the house and your help in guiding me through the process. Stallone, your patience was exceptional. Thank you for making the process as smooth as possible, in particular with the neighbours, who all miss you! You have also been incredibly helpful with following up on a few inevitable adjustments needed after I moved in. I guess the test of whether the process was successful is whether you’d do it again, and I would. I would also not hesitate to recommend Corvus Primesite to others."
"I’d like to personally thank you and the Corvus Primesite team for delivering our dream home This project was always going to be challenging; • Combing two existing apartments into one larger apartment • Dealing with a strict building manager • Building in a live environment with many outspoken owner occupiers who work from home • Limited detailed design documentation • And a client with industry knowledge and extremely high standards The planning and delivery of the project was carried out in a safe and professional manner and always considered the constraints of working in a live environment. On many occasions when I visited the site the building manager and my neighbours went out of their way to compliment the Corvus Primesite team on their friendly and professional approach to the works. All of the sub-contractors employed by Corvus Primesite were punctual, courteous and professional. The Corvus Primesite team ensured that their workmanship was of the highest standard. The design was always aligned with budget without compromising quality or detail, and you frequently came up with cost effective solutions to issues that arose during construction. You and your team were extremely helpful and regularly went above and beyond the call of duty to make the construction process seamless and worry free. The post completion service and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. The project was delivered within budget and ahead of programme, and Tiffany and I are thoroughly delighted with final product. Whenever you require, I am more than happy to be a referee for any of your potential clients that are seeking a professional Design and Construct contractor. Once again thank you for making our construction experience such a pleasure."
"We engaged Corvus Primesite as our builder through a competitive tender process, and we have been nothing but delighted with them. We would definitely recommend them! From the outset of our project, they were organised, efficient, and suggested possible solutions to various building or design challenges as the build progressed. They are effective project managers, keeping track of timeframes, contractors, and ordering ahead on key items to avoid unnecessary delays. They also kept a record of scope changes and agreed actions at each site meeting, and at all times managed the whole build as a collaborative partnership with our architect (@Benn&Penna) and with us in a professional and pragmatic way. We dealt primarily with Stuart and our excellent site manager Angus, and found them to be reliable, honest, and when any issues came up with construction - as inevitably happens with any build - they were quick to come up with solutions that we could discuss and decide on the best course of action. They finished on-time and within our expected budget. We have not hesitated to recommend them to others and continue to be happy with their workmanship and follow-up, a year after moving into our beautifully renovated home. Thanks Corvus-Primesite!"
"From concept to completion I am very happy with the Corvus Primesite team and their trades, for me this renovation was as important as my house purchase and I am so very happy with the result, on time and to a remarkable standard. I am a believer that you should do something once and do it well and Corvus Primesite does that, they work with you every step of the way, and the finish is superb. You know when you read a website you wonder how much is fact and how much fiction, its my experience that this one is fact. Stuart you should be very proud of yourself and your team, your assistance in seeking alternative solutions when this old house needed more changes than original planned is much appreciated. Initially Angus kept me appraised and dealt with my stress of seeing my house demolished! (well virtually) and his suggestions worked out well, then progressing the build with Blake who has a great eye and excellent attention to detail, they were very attentive to my numerous calls and texts and always answered promptly, they both put up with me being around checking on progress, they are an asset to your company, and all round good blokes. It would be a pleasure to work with you again but you did such a good job there’s nothing left to do! I wish you and the company all the best for the future success."
"Building a bespoke home in the inner city was always going to be a challenge but Corvus Primesite, in many ways saved my project. From the start they ticked the first box—being good communicators. I never had to chase them up. Promises were kept and expectations were set if anything changed, Stuart was promptly on the phone or calling by to let me know why something wasn’t happening as promised. How many builders never understand that it’s better to know than be left in the dark. Throughout the entire job an experienced site supervisor was on site coordinating all the various trades and sorting out any little construction or design knots that came up. Often making suggestions that improved the finish by talking with myself and/or my architect. He cared as much about the build as I did. Because of site difficulties getting out of the ground was a mission, but Corvus dealt with Sydney Water and the City Council, chasing consultants and finding specialist sub contractors to constantly push all parties to get the work done. Most of all they understood what my architect was trying to achieve with clean lines, minimalist, high quality finishes and took as much pleasure as I did in creating a beautiful and unique house for my retirement."
"Over the last few years I have had the pleasure of working with Stuart, Alvin and the team at Corvus Primesite on a number of residential projects, as well as the Simple Studio showroom and office fitout. They are absolute professionals and deliver impeccable quality workmanship coupled with expert management, resulting in projects that are not just beautifully executed, but delivered on time and on budget. Corvus Primesite consistently deliver outstanding customer service through great communication, a can-do approach and exacting attention to detail. I have absolutely no hesitation in providing the very highest recommendation to anyone looking for a top quality builder for either a residential or commercial project. 5 stars!"
"We engaged the services of Corvus Primesite in 2017 to conduct significant building works on a property we own in Clovelly. The project involved many complexities. The apartment is on the fifth floor and most of it, (and an above ground swimming pool) was demolished. Limited access for materials handling, a high level of architectural fit out (i.e nothing standard) and being part of a strata building (with 15 other owners) added additional degrees of difficulty to the project. Throughout the 13 month long project, the team from Corvus Primesite not only delivered us a quality home, but also managed to maintain cordial relationships with the other apartment owners. This required a great deal of effective management, co-operation and communication – particularly in regard to dealing with a difficult strata committee. It also allowed us (as the owners) to keep at arm’s length from the project. At no time during the process did we doubt the workmanship being conducted or the honesty and integrity of Corvus Primesite. The project team, including our project manager Stuart Emmins, at all times displayed professionalism and co-operation. As far as building projects go, this one was relatively stress free, due to the fact that Corvus Primesite had everything under control and delivered upon our contractual arrangement. Like any build there were a few minor defects upon completion. The level of after-project service has been exemplary. We have had all issues attended to in a timely manner. This service has even extended to other issues in the building that weren’t even related to our project. We would have no hesitation in recommending Corvus Primesite to any potential client. We have been extremely happy with the project outcome and the process."
"After another builder quit after only a couple of weeks of planning as it was all too hard, we were introduced to Corvus Primesite who took the job on from design to completion. The brief was to construct a second storey and completely renovate the remainder. Their Architect came up with exactly what we wanted and the work was first rate, we were consulted all the way through the job. Despite a few changes they brought the job home without variations and earlier than scheduled, bang on budget. Workmanship was first rate and if there were any problems, however minor, they were immediately rectified. I would not hesitate to recommend Corvus Primesite to anyone wanting a first class job."
"We had a very pleasant experience building with Alvin and Stuart. Their team were always professional and completed our Granny Flat in 12 weeks without any delays. We were so happy with them that we engaged Corvus Primesite again to renovate the living room and bathrooms to our main house. Keep up the great work!"
"We had a wonderful experience building with Corvus Primesite. The team from management to trades were great communicators and lovely people - they took care of the build from beginning through to the end and would suggest improvements during design and construction and were always responsive to requests throughout the project. Fit and finish was excellent. We would love to build with Corvus Primesite again."
