"Sydney Building Renovations
replaced the roof of our house and carried out
extensive interior repairs to damp and water damaged
areas.
Joe and his team really understand
what is meant by the term "Quality" and this runs
through every aspect of their work.
As a working couple if was
critical for my wife and I to find a company that
would manage all aspects of the work on our house
and manage the project for us. Joe exceeded my
expectations throughout this project.
He made appointments and he kept
to them. If he, or any of his team was going
to be late I would receive a phone call 30 minutes
before the scheduled time telling me there would be
a delay and giving me a revised time.
Teams of skilled Tradesmen arrived
at our house in the right order, all knowing exactly
what piece of work they were tasked with, trucks
arrived carrying materials at the right time, every
time.
Every piece of work was carefully
explained to us and at each stage all the available
options were given to us to choose and the work was
carried out to the highest standards.
We will be using Sydney Building
Renovations for any future work on our property and
I would not hesitate to recommend Joe and the team
at Sydney Building Renovations to anyone
looking for a quality building company."

"Dear Joe,
Somehow the words ‘thank you’
don’t go far enough to express our most sincere
gratitude for the wonderful service you provided for
Mark and myself during the renovation of our first
home.
I have written the following
testimonial so that you can show prospective clients
who are considering employing your services for
their building needs.
* * *
My name is Cara Appleton and I have
volunteered to write this testimonial regarding
Sydney Building Repairs.
Earlier this year, my husband and I
purchased our first home; an older house in the
suburbs that needed quite extensive cosmetic
renovation. I first came across Sydney Building
Repairs in the search for an expert to make some
repairs to the piers beneath the home. Upon meeting
Joe Alexander, we were not only thoroughly impressed
with his knowledge and extensive qualifications, but
also with his friendly but professional approach.
The work was completed quickly and with obvious
attention to detail, which subsequently led us to
utilise the services of Sydney Building Repairs for
making changes to an internal wall.
From here, as can happen during a
renovation, we uncovered a number of ‘surprises’ in
the house, including an extremely poorly constructed
sub-floor in our kitchen and rotting walls behind
the then current tiles in the bathroom. As first
home-buyers with the birth of our first child
imminent, it was crucial that we kept to a budget so
my husband was doing much of the work himself. Joe
Alexander and the team from Sydney Building Repairs
enthusiastically welcomed a barrage of questions
that my husband put forward about how best to tackle
these obstacles. They were always on hand with
sensible advice that allowed us to stay within our
budget.
It soon became obvious that we needed
an expert, as the job was becoming somewhat
overwhelming in terms of the level of expertise
required and also the investment of time. It was at
this point that we called upon Sydney Building
Repairs to take over the project, a move that proved
to be an exciting turning point in the renovation.
By the time our house was completed,
Sydney Building Repairs had been responsible for the
following work:
Repairs to pier-work and sub-floor
ventilation
Widening and re-shaping an arched
internal doorway
Re-constructing bearers and joists
under kitchen floor, including making cost-saving
suggestions that still addressed important
considerations such as pest-control
Fitting out bathroom, including
replacing rotten walls, making design suggestions,
providing certified waterproofing, installing new
windows and project management to ensure that
plumbers and electricians worked in synchrony
Repairing spots of rising damp
Other minor repairs
Giving extensive advice regarding
all manner of building and repair questions
All of the above work was undertaken
and followed through upon the terms of the relevant
building contracts where applicable.
I would unreservedly recommend Sydney
Building Repairs to anyone looking for a true master
in the field of Building."
Yours sincerely,
Cara Appleton
"Joe and everyone involved with
Sydney Building Repairs were all a pleasure to have
around when we were getting renovations done. My
wife and I both really trusted Joe. He kept to his
word. Joe was mindful of my wife's safety, who at
the time was pregnant. He was also mindful of our
financial situation with a new addition on the way.
He was punctual, reliable, personable and very
professional. He made an effort to drop a gift over
to my son two months after he had finished up on the
job.
The renovations themselves have made a priceless
difference to our home. It has opened it up and
bought a new life into it. My brother in law, who
owns a real estate agency says that the financial
value of the property has far outweighed the
expenditure of the renovations themselves.
I would and have recommended Joe to anyone. I think
it is rare to find someone that you genuinely trust
in an industry that is filled with so many horror
stories".

"Dear Joe,
Happy Christmas and New Year! And thanks for the
Christmas card. Apologies for not writing to say
thank you for the excellent work you did earlier,
but we wanted to wait a few months. Anyway, three
months gone and the floor you spent so much care
over looks as good as when you laid it! And the damp
proofing and subfloor ventilation seem to be working
fine. We are very grateful for the personal approach
you took with us, guiding us through every step of
the way. It was quite daunting being first home
buyers so the way you walked us through every part
of the work was very reassuring. And thanks also for
rearranging the piers to face the right way
throughout the house, which was typical of you great
attention to detail.
We know you are very busy, but when you get a
chance, can you please send us the photos you took?
That way we can have a record of the floor as it
developed from nothing but eaten through piers and
stumps through to the beautiful finished product.
Good luck with the rest of your qualifications, and
we will definitely call you for more work when the
time is right.
Best wishes and thanks again for the superb job!"
