The build quality is fantastic. It was built quickly and without any dramas. Ray, the Site Manager did a great job and Sam who arranged the concreting, fencing and landscaping also did a great job. Highly recommended!

I recently have my granny flat built through Brickwood Homes ans was completed on time, meticulously done, fantastic management of the project by Ray , tradies are excellent in their own field, good communication between the tradies with Ray and with us, well organised and did a fantastic job. Great builder and company to deal with. I highly recommend Brickwood Homes if you are thinking or plan to build a granny flat or even home or a duplex.

I just had my granny flat built by Brickwood Homes. My experience with the team of Brickwood Homes was very pleasant. From the very first moment when I dealt with Alex, the sales person, it was very professional and the process was nice and clear during the design and approval process. Then I had the opportunity to deal with Ray who was supervising the construction process. Ray is very professional and always kept me updated with the building process. More importantly, he finished the project on time with delivering what he promised. Amanda and Geoff in the office are amazing. They both went above and beyond and delivered a great customer experience. If I have to build any more houses or granny flats in the future, I’ll definitely come back to you guys. Thank you Brickwood Homes for your outstanding customer service.

Heartful thanks to Ray for building a beautiful granny flat with in less than 80 days. Highly recommend to all fellow aussies to appoint Ray as your project manager and be prepared to run at his pace. A quality outcome at good pace is acheivable with Birckwood and Ray as a lead.> Points to note: Planning and designing stage felt pushy, please take your time and tell the planner not push you. Do not sign the plans right away or even next day, take your time show it your friends or families or collegues who recently built the house. They may pick some errors and faults in the design which are missed by planner. My designer, designed the granny with out the second door, after showed him the plan we ended up designing the bathroom with no window, realised this during consturction. Having the bathroom window for a granny is ideal, during warm showers in winter.... No lights have been planned in passage, we found them during the consturctions stage and taken to supervisors attention. Not enough lights planned along the out side perimeter, I will be hiring another electrician tomorrow to take some down lights the side of the granny,Personally, I am not planner or engineer, i expect my planner do this job for me as I am paying bloody $$$$ for him. Again this is my experiecne that come with a cost, Any paper work you sign take time read carefully, understand carefully and then sign. With my knowledge all Tc&Cs in house or granny consturction have been designed in favour to builder only, except one or two out of list of 70 or more.I highly reocmmend Brickwood homes and choose Project manager Ray Sabongi, the Man of ideas, never give up or comprising about the quliaty at every stage of consturction, but avoid planner Elie.

Brickwoods is a top recommendation! The whole process was a breeze, and Ray, the site manager, was an absolute pleasure to work with. Shelley was fantastic at suggesting colors and materials that complemented each other during the selection stage. She really made a potentially stressful process super simple! I couldn't be happier with the end result and will definitely reach out to them again in the future if I need their services. Highly, highly recommend!

I would highly recommend using this company to build your home. They were upfront and transparent with everything and got our granny flat approved when others said it could not be done at a reasonable price. On completion, the quality and attention to detail was so high. Thank you so much to the team and especially Rick, Ray and Geoff. Good old fashion service 😃Awad

After a very bad experience with another granny flat building company, I met Albert from Brickwood home. Albert and his team are very professional. He did exactly what he has promised from the beginning. I definitely recommend them.

Brickwood Homes constructed a granny flat behind our home and Ray Sabongi was the site Manager. There was never a hard ask for Ray. He listens and responds to requests. He also explains if our requests are not recommended or provides a better option. Overall, we thought Brickwood did a great job. The quality and finishes were as discussed in the contract. The contractors/workers were professional and respectful. Office support from Rick and Shelley at the front-end and Geoff from the office also deserves a mention here.In addition Brickwood did additional renovations on our pool, backyard and surrounds. Jack Issa was the best! Never a hard task and always there when you need him. Our backyard was a jungle and pool was not usable (as it was dated) before Brickwood proposed renovations to be done. So much needed to be done by different contractors and the weather was not always on our side. Jack managed the schedule pretty well. Again all the contractors were professional. Albert Chahda also monitored the renovations and granny flat construction.Overall, we thought Brickwood did a great job and finished the work on time for our mum to move in. We are so happy that we went with Brickwood.

We've had good experience through the whole process from sales, quotation, design and construction. Construction process is well managed, our project completed on schedule despite some early unexpected difficulties. Most of the crews are also very professional and a pleasure to deal with.Ray Sabongi, the site manager, is very professional and always provide good options and valuable recommendations. Some of the additional services like landscaping are not the cheapest but well valued with good workmanship and coordination with other teams.With the experience so far, I definitely recommend Brickwood and Ray for any granny flat projects.

We recently moved from Scotland to spend our retirement closer to our Family in Australia, staying in our Daughter and Son in Law’s Granny Flat which they built with Brickwood Homes.We are so glad they chose Brickwood Homes for the build, as the Granny Flat they delivered more than exceeds our expectations.The main man at Brickwood Homes is Albert Chanda, who sat down with us and went through every detail of the build and gathered from us all that we were looking for from him. He was so thorough, and professional.The Construction Manager on the project was Ray Sabongi, who was absolutely fantastic, nothing was a problem to him, or us. Having such a wealth of knowledge and experience he ensured the build progressed to his extremely high standards, leaving the whole process completely stress free for us, a really nice guy and a pleasure to work with.We would be confident to recommend Brickwood Homes to anyone who is looking for the “right” builder to build their Granny Flat.Thank you, Albert, Ray, and the Team at Brickwood Homes.From John and Geraldine Lynagh.

The experience so far with Brickwood Homes has been fantastic!Alex was responsive to my queries and offered a lot of guidance to help me choose a suitable granny flat package. Shelley was accommodating with online meetings to help me understand the design whilst Anita and Geoff went above and beyond to guide me through the colour selections.

Just thought I’d do a google review for Brickwood homes who just completed a 2 bedroom granny flat for me in Buxton 2571To say I’m impressed is an understatement. From Albert coming out and listening to exactly what I wanted and then Ray doing everything to make it all happen was awesome. Very professional did everything they said they would and made the whole process super easy. Shelley in the office was great to deal with also.Couldn’t recommend Ray, Albert and this company any higher and will be using them again for future investments (5 star)

Just finished building a granny flat with Brickwood Homes. I was extremely satisfied with the high level of service provided from start to finish. Rick, Shelly and Ray were professional and pleasure to work with. Any queries or concerns I had they were addressed and resolved promptly to satisfaction. Ray the supervisor was a man of action and got the build moving quickly. Unfortunately, we had a lot of rain which slowed down constructions for a period of time.I am extremely happy with the finished granny flat, which turned out exactly how I wanted it. I highly recommend Brickwood homes.

BRICKWOOD Homes Jack & Albert were very responsive & exemplified professionalism towards our vision in a complete renovation to a 5bedroom double storey home. Result has left us with an amazing home that ticks all our boxes. So much so that we originally build this house in 1999 & raised our family, now after our renovation as well as being empty nesters, we feel like we are at a different address.It was a long journey with many hiccups, however we have faith in Jack & Albert through out the process.Anyone out there who is considering to renovate, you must contact BRICKWOOD Homes, they will do their upmost to make your visions become a reality!Thanks Guy’s.Steve&Diane Murphy.

Avoid avoid avoid.... Dodgy salespeople and unprofessional contractual practices. Their salesperson Alex Xu visited and promised to match a competitor quote on exact same scope and requirements. Three weeks, a few visits by them and to their display at an hour's drive and, a confusing proposal (with three different prices) and a fuzzy tender (that they termed as a contract) later, the price was increased thrice, once by 5K, then by 2K and then again by 8K (emai and text msg proof available if anyone is interested... simply reach out). They try to sell their faster construction times but they are no different to anyone else in time to completion or price. Go to a recognized builder and avoid wasting time on these so called builders!

We started our journey with Brickwood homes wanting to build a granny flat. From the start the team was extremely friendly and helpful with the design process, I wanted a different kitchen design then the standard granny flat with a kitchen breakfast bar and an extra study and it has turned out fantastic and still spacious. I want to really thank our project manager Ray Sabongi he has been wonderful in keeping us up to date on the project, if there were any issues they were fixed almost immediately and he has had such a professional and friendly demeanor that I felt comfortable and trusted him building our home, he would even come on his day off when there was any concern. Our family definitely recommends Brickwood Homes and again we just really want to appreciate everyone's hard work in finishing this project!

We are currently having a Granny Flat built by Brickwood Homes. So far we are at the slab stage, waiting for rain to stop so the building can be finished.

Ray always replied to our calls promptly & gave clear explanations to our many questions.We are really looking forward to completion.Regards Sue Hilton.

We could not be happier with our granny flat. It is beautifully built with everything of such good quality, Our build was overseen by Ray Sabongi who was the project manager. Ray kept us up to date with every stage and he went out of his way many times, to make sure everything was completed on time. He has an excellent work ethic and was not satisfied until all was just the way we wanted. Also when we contacted him for any reason, he got back to us almost immediately. We would not hesitate to recommend Brickwood Homes to anybody considering building a home or granny flat.

After unfortunate circumstances and hardship to reach our granny flat goals, we have the pleasure to value and thank for the work BRICKWOOD HOMES, with the continuous support, communication, professionalism and especially in the way of accommodating our needs to design and build our future lifestyle.

Positive partnerships are now established and maintained.A BIG thanks to Shelly who maintained her support, strength, inspiration and nurturing nature to pursue our granny flat. Her hardship and her determination to make us stay strong and happy. Cheers to you Shelly.A HUGE shout out to RAY (our foreman) who is always persistent to make sure his creations with his team sustain professionalism and positive outcomes.
