“Very big thank you to Building 51 and their highly experienced trades people for rebuilding our wonderful home. The quality of their work is excellent. Gary’s helpful improvement suggestions over the course of the build and attention to detail delivered an exceptional high quality outcome.”
At Building 51, we’ve been combining excellence with quality craftsmanship and innovative design for over 35 years.
As a boutique family-run company, our passion for building spans generations, and we treat every home as if it were our own. Build or renovate, we are excited to share the journey with you.
A story that has a happy ending in 2020!
“When we were looking for the right builder, we had a vision about how we want our 1950s Rivervale stud frame home to become our dream residence by more than doubling its size. It was an ambitious plan with partly demolishing the existing building while we are living in the home.
While sharing our plans with four to five boutique builders from the beginning it was clear that Gary`s experience and willingness to help will most likely secure our agreement. We had to revise our plans several times to bring into the budget, rework inclusions to meet the shortage on bank valuation, and out of all companies no one was capable to support us more efficiently to achieve our goals other than Gary.
Working as a building consultant for a project builder for over a decade myself and completing other private renovation and building projects in the past, I had a strong and high expectation of service and product delivery.
Both of these were met with the highest possible professionalism and with the friendliest manner. Coming along with last-minute ideas right before completion, changing selections all over several times throughout the build, we couldn’t ever ask for a kinder approach.
The process was fun, engaging, and really enjoyable. Seeing the transformation while you have the best support possible made this journey a very positive memory.
Gary, Guy, Jess, and all their friendly and professional tradespeople, thank you for looking after us and achieving a dream we had for a long time, combining a classic old home with a post-modern style extension! Top class finish that will be loved by many for the years come!
"Our single storey home burnt down, leaving only the slab and some brickwork behind. The site has now been completely redesigned and we have a new, modern two storey home with upstairs parent retreat in its place.
We highly recommend giving them a call."
“We are in love!”
“Thank you for all you have done for us! We are in love with our new house and looking forward to creating lots of memories here. You’ve gone above and beyond and we’re so happy.”
