"It was a pleasure to be able to work with Anthony and Dan once again, this time on the complete renovation of two very old (1970s) bathrooms.

Anthony demonstrated the highest level of professonalism - being careful to guide us through the recommended scope and options during the consultation stage, a detailed breakdown of the services | materials | timelines during the quotation stage, and a high quality and on-time delivery.

Together with his son Dan, Anthony proved demonstrate a high quality of work at the agreed price point, fully communicating any suggested changes, and alway cleaning up perfectly at the end of the day.

I look forward to working with Anthony and Dan again - and cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone else looking for an outstanding and trustworthy builder for renovation of upgrades to their property."

"Anthony and Daniel have recently completed the last part of a complete house renovation which has spanned 7 years in stages. The BIG PLUS for me is PEACE OF MIND that the advice received is made with a genuine desire to do the best job and the workmanship is of a high standard.
I am totally at ease to have them in the house and also when I am away.
Redecorating and upgrading a house can be a huge upheaval while still living in it but A and D made it as comfortable for me to carry on pretty much as normal.
They also wear many hats so no one is needed for the variety of skills required and also have a pet electrician who works in with them. A secondary plus is they can sing in tune
I look forward to the last thing to be done - the front door

Each time they'd come in, assess the job and give really good advice on the best way forward. We've always sanctioned that advice and the results were always of a high standard.

"I was very fortunate to have had Anthony recommended by Placemakers for my new kitchen. Anthony took the trouble to suggest alternative options and price brackets. Me being short on visualisation he was extremely helpful and patient. As well as removing and disposing of the old kitchen he and his crew (Danial and Colin)were also able to do the gib stopping, wallpapering, painting, plumbing and extra building work. He also had a mate who was an electrician. It was a pleasure to have them in the house and to hear them singing while they worked. They all had an old fashioned trait of pride in their work."

"Ants & Sons did a great job on our renovations - we got him in initially to build a false wall for us in our garage, and after doing such a great job, we got him back to reconfigure our downstairs laundry into a more modern apartment style laundry and then take out our garage door and turn our internal garage into another room. I wish I had photos to put up here of what they did, as it's top notch. Really pleased with the level of finish and how easy they were to deal with. I left the dog home during the day and even he loved the builders!! The finish of the works is really good, he has a very good eye for detail and best of all, he is a problem solver, so if something on the build pops up that is outside of spec, he'll have a couple of good solutions or ideas on hand for you to consider. We've been really happy with the work done so far. Will definitely be using him again for further renovations on our house."

"We are really impressed with the work Ant and his team carried out at our home. They turned a dark, old separate bathroom & toilet into a modern, bright work of art. They also built the framing for a fitted wardrobe, painted, tiled and adjusted doors. Ant put a lot of thought into the job and came up with some great ideas on fittings and finishes. He also picked up the tiles and fittings for the bathroom. The team worked well, nothing was too much trouble and they cleaned up every night before they left. We would have no hesitation in asking them to do more work for us, and will also happily recommend them to friends and family. By the way, Ant takes his tea with milk and one sugar."

"So glad we found Tony and team through this website. They have transformed our house inside out; put in great ideas and quality workmanship for the kitchen, ensuite, landscape, etc. Appreciate they are so professional, yet personal and all the jobs, big or small are done with such high standards. Really appreciate that Tony is an all rounder (builder, concept man, practical yet creative, etc). Much consideration was given to matching cost with value, maintenance with impact and needs of occupants such as height of kitchen bench/wash basin/cabinets (I am not too tall) and comfortable living area for our German Shepherd. The skills that Tony, Mick, Josh and Daniel have put into the project are demonstrated in every detail. They have been recommended to friends who were greatly impressed with what they saw. They have given us confidence to consider bigger renovations!"

"Ant and his boys are absolute gems. It would be fair to say we were nervous renovators having been burned in the past with cost blowouts and work that was not up to scratch (hence this bathroom needing to be made over). The job took a little longer than expected due to being done through the winter months and drying times taking a lot longer - but Ant took it all in his stride. When tricky areas needed discussing, he would make valuable suggestions, and even when I didn\'t quite agree with/like the sound of the suggestions, he was never fazed and re-thought things through for me. (This is not to say his suggestions were not good - they were amazing - I was just fussy!!!) I can\'t thank him enough for his patience in this regard. He is a perfectionist - when the lights on either side of the bathroom mirror had to be fitted after he had finished, when he popped back, he even noticed the mirror was not exactly centred between the lights and moved it ever so slightly. I cannot recommend Ant and his boys enough. They are thoroughly trustworthy and reliable. We will definitely use them again. Ant has given me back the confidence to continue with some more renovations when we can afford them. I absolutely love my fabulous new bathroom (I pinch myself everytime I walk in!!) Thank you so very much Ant."

"Ant has been doing jobs for us for the past year (and has finally finished). We started with him for a little job of gibbing and plastering and he has ended up doing tiling, plumbing, putting up curtain rods, swapping door handles, putting in letterbox, LOTS OF ADVICE and many many more things that would save us some time. He and Michael have been absolutely fantastic and I would recommend this team to everyone out there. He is soooo popular and busy and I can see why. Whatever your needs, these guys can do it. Don't just take my word for it - use them and see. Well done guys and thanks soooo much for all you've done. Hopefully I'll get you over to Aussie to get some renovation work done for us over there."

Ant advised us on the best fittings and installed these carefully and professionally. Any building mess was quickly cleaned up and they kept us regularly updated on how progress was going. In summary, you could not ask for anyone better to work on your house. Thanks again."

A lovely young man to work with while doing up your home and he delivers the best results.

"A building report picked up a couple of problems that needed repairs. We wanted a professional job done quickly so I contacted Anthony at Albion repairs. He was able to get to the house the next day and made an assessment of the problems. He also assured us that the problems were not a major issue. We were pleased that the work was completed to a high standard and within the time frame outlined. The cost of repairs was consistent with the time involved and materials used. Anthony also did a check on other areas of the house and was able to reassure us that things were fine. We now feel assured that the house is in good condition and are very pleased with the work that has been done.

"This was a second job from Albion. The first was after another contractor had to be sent packing after messing up putting a simple gate in. Anthony and Darren took over, made extremely practical suggestions for changes and completed the job to perfection.

This second job was a driveway crossing to the road. Anthony was up front and said it wasn't their area of expertise and might be a bit more expensive. Based on the quality of workmanship from the fence we had no hesitation in accepting their quote.

Only they would know that driveways were not their area of expertise - we've had several comments already about how good the job was and even the building inspector was impressed!!"

I am person who likes to know what is going on and both would always fill me in. Every little detail was well thought and excuted with precison obtaining excellent workmanship. These guys set daily goals, and if it means working a little late, then so be it. Ants does his homework and finds the best pricing available out there making our choices easy. They are clean and tidy inside and out, leaving our house clean everyday, respecting our home, and also at the end of the day, making sure the work area was safe for our four children who's hole aim is to search and destroy. If you love to listen to flat singers these guys are the ones. They became part of our family, and we enjoyed the two weeks they worked here. Happy building !!"
