Testimonials

Dave, Jay & the whole HDMB team are fabulous! We have just moved into our renovation completed last week and even amid the chaos of moving house we are so delighted. From start to finish the guys have been easy to work with and helpful. Jay met with us and helped us mould the big picture, recommended a designer to get the CDC (we wish we'd taken his recommendation) then worked through the plan and costings - he was patient (with our inexperience) and helpful (suggesting details left out of our plans). We signed the contract the day after our baby was born and despite juggling that + 2020, Dave and the demolition and build team made the whole process as smooth as possible. The online system they use was superb for seeing the plan, tracking messages between us and reminding us of things to do / sharing documents. The project wasn't big (22 weeks) and was completed with less than a week delay (and the hold up was our kitchen company). We hope we don't have to do a project like this again for a while but if we do would definitely use HDMB again!

Whilst our renovation was not as big as some others, it was nevertheless a bit daunting to us as first time builders. However, Jay and Dave were brilliant throughout. They were extremely patient and happy to talk us through everything. The job was also finished to a very high quality, on time and on budget (noting that we requested variations). As we went through the job, unsurprisingly we realised that we wanted changes. For example, we decided that we wanted to upgrade the floorboards and we also changed the way that some of the lighting worked. Each time we wanted a change, Dave and Jay were happy to tell us what was possible, what was not, what it would cost and what the delay might be. Luckily all the changes we made were fairly easily accommodated and we were able to stick to the overall schedule. Overall, we were thrilled with how everything turned out. We learned a lot throughout our build. But our biggest learning was to have a builder than you can work with. HDMB is most definitely that! We’re already planning to engage them for the next and bigger stage

We couldn't have been more impressed with the quality of work and attention to detail from Jay & Dave at HDMB. On-time, on budget, exceptionally organised as well as being super tidy, our renovation experience with them was outstanding. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to extend, renovate or with a new build

​Jodie & David - Leichhardt

We'd heard awful stories from friends whose renovation experiences were not great. However, we had the very opposite experience. Jay and Dave did a fantastic job despite weather and the site throwing everything at them. They finished on time and on budget to help us create a high quality home for our family. The team were a pleasure to deal with and I would recommend them to anyone wanting to work with builders committed to a quality renovation

Nicole & Michael - Drummoyne

HDMB did a great job on our renovation. Their professionalism, efficiency and thoroughness made it a smooth process for us and gave a great finished result. We'd have no hesitation in recommending them

Craig - Clovelly

We engaged HDMB to complete an extension and addition to our house in the inner west of Sydney. We had originally engaged another builder however that was short lived as he had significantly underestimated some of the costs when we pushed for more detail so we parted ways before we even began. Dave and Jay from HDMB provided us with an extremely detailed quote and took the time to help us work out how we could complete the project within our budget. They were extremely accommodating of us living on site during the build and of us undertaking some of the tasks ourselves (eg some painting etc) to ensure we could achieve this. Dave was onsite every day and regularly communicated the schedule of works and any changes to the schedule, and the invoicing/billing was clear and detailed. Our project was delivered on time and on budget and both Jay and Dave are just lovely guys to work with. We are really happy with the result and the quality of the build. I know a lot of people who have had bad experiences with renovations but for us finishing off what was a 3 year process from finding an architect/approvals and finding a builder to completing the project - we are really pleased that we went with HDMB and would have no hesitation using them again in the future or recommending them to anyone.

Jacqueline & Henry - Dulwich Hill

We cannot speak more highly about the HDMB team and our experiences with them. Every interaction was carried out with professionalism, attention to detail and with the specifics of our build in mind. The team were on time, on budget and easy to work with. As first time renovators, Jay and Dave went out of their way to make us completely comfortable with all aspects of the build - site visits were never a problem, all our questions were answered and the worksite was always immaculately clean. We would and have, multiple times, recommended them to all of our friends and family, and would not hesitate to build with them again. Thank you Jay, Dave and the entire HDMB team - 5 stars!

Will & Emma- Dulwich Hill

Jay and Dave completed our renovation in Annandale, converting our 2 bedroom semi into a beautiful 4 bedroom home. We could not be happier with the quality of their work. They were very helpful in collaborating on ideas and improvements to the design, as well as ensuring the build was completed on time and on budget, which was impressive given a strict 6 month turnaround for a substantial renovation. We would not hesitate to recommend them to others

Emma & Ryan - Annandale

We cannot speak more highly about Jay and Dave and the whole HDMB team. The attention to detail was brilliant and communication with us about every item was very appreciated. We are so pleased with the final product, everything is just as we had hoped.

We would not hesitate to recommend the team to anyone - and we already have!

​Thanks for an excellent job.
