After travelling in our caravan for 9 years we decided to base ourselves at Elliott Heads and build our beach theme house on our block. We had no experience with builders in the Bundaberg area, but had specific ideas on what we required. After visiting a number of different display homes, we became increasingly frustrated. We found that most builders were only interested in modifying their existing designs and not listening to what we wanted including what our budget was.
This all changed when we spoke to Ricky from Comfort Homes, who came highly recommended from our friends at Bargara, who had also used him to build their home. Ricky not only listened to us but put forward some additional suggestions that led to the most cost effective build. From our original requirements and a rough sketch, he produced the perfect final plans.
We were thrilled with the build cost which was under our budget, and even more so when the home was completed well ahead of the contract time and NO extra hidden costs.
I am sure the early completion is mainly due to Ricky’s organisational skills and the quality of the tradesmen he uses.
It is very rare that you will find a principal builder who is hands on, not only using the tools but personally overseeing the construction at every stage. Something else we were very impressed with was that Ricky personally maintained a very clean building site.
The standard of construction and the enthusiasm of all the tradesman was of a high standard and their relationship was first class. They all worked well together and helped each other if required. Ricky was very flexible during the construction and followed up all phases to ensure the scheduled dates were adhered to. A special thanks also to Amanda who not only looked after all accounting issues but gave some very good design suggestions.
If you are looking for a true Custom Builder rather than a project builder then we believe using Ricky and his team at Comfort Homes is the only choice you should make.
