Thanks again.

We undertook a structural renovation of our 1950s home. From start to finish Joseph was very thorough and up front about what options were available to us and what services he could provide. He gave us enormous insight and assistance on top of the works he and his team carried out for us. He is a good manager with high standards and sound integrity; when he says he will do something, it gets done to a high standard. Despite being a busy man he maintained clear and consistent communication throughout the project. Additionally, all of the contractors recommended by him that we have used have also been excellent and a testament to his character and professional demeanour. We are very grateful to have stumbled across him and certainly recommend his services.

"Joseph was incredibly professional and helpful when I contacted him to enquire about a pre-purchase building inspection. He talked me through the process and displayed both professionalism and genuine desire to help me in my property search. The inspection was conducted promptly, and without fuss and the report helped me consider my purchase. I will absolutely recommend Joseph and will use him again!"

Ben Orchard

"Joseph is an absolute professional, he assessed the damages to my property and prepared a report that helped me get a positive order from the NCAT tribunal."

We have found the services provided by Joe and his staff to be, well organised, highly professional, and consistently reliable. During the past twelve months , Joe has liaised with us, giving us sound advise and guidance and keeping us informed of progress that was taking place between ourselves and the insurer. Hence as a result of this, we have achieved a more than satisfactory arrangement with the insurer enabling us to proceed and move forward. Joe was ready and willing to offer well informed advise and clarity on the sometime complex interpretations of the Australian Standards & Australian Building Codes. We would have no hesitation in recommending Sydney Building Consultants to clients & architects on any future projects.

"We engaged Sydney Building Consultants to report on issues and provide advice and report following a bathroom renovations for my elderly parents. I found Joseph to be very knowledgeable and thorough. It was hard to trust anyone at this time but Joseph put me at ease and explained in detail the Fair Trading and NCAT process. I feel very comfortable with the advice and findings and the reports provided by Joseph. He is very experienced and knows his stuff. Having been let down it was difficult to trust anyone but with Joseph guiding me through the process it gave me the confidence to proceed and fight for what is right. I have no hesitation in recommending Joseph, he is very experienced and knowledgeable. He will guide you through and steer you on the right path through what can be a minefield. Thank you Joseph, I am sure our paths will cross again and look forward to dealing with you again knowing that I will be in good hands once again."

Joseph identified all renovation work that failed to comply with relevant standards, provided an Expert Witness Report & rectification costs in a Scott Schedule for NCAT. Joseph did an excellent job & provided much valuable information throughout, all of which enabled me to achieve a most satisfactory outcome at NCAT. He's a top guy & I couldn't recommend him more highly.

"Hi Joseph Sydney Building Consultants
John and I just want to say a very sincere thank you for all the wonderful work you have done on my late son's home. We really lucked when John found your name on the internet. Living in Far North Queensland and needing a reliable and trustworthy builder to do work in Sydney was a big call. We could have so easily chosen the wrong person but we are so pleased to have found you. You gave us honest advice and never led us astray. All your suggestions paid off. We are so happy with the quality of the work, the speed with which you did it, or organised to have it done where necessary, and all at a fair price. And thank you for all the extras that you did for us to make the home more saleable. It really was a mess when you first walked in but when you finished the place looked lovely. The first person to inspect the home immediately put in an offer. We did a little bit of haggling and came to an agreement very quickly. This would not have happened without the work you did as the house was in an unsaleable condition before you arrived. So thank you very much again. It was wonderful to meet you when we flew down to Sydney just before you finished the work. If you ever want a reference for potential customers please feel free to have them contact us and we will have no hesitation in recommending you.

Take care

Kindest Regards
Rosemary Jilderts

"Hi Joseph Sydney
Thank you so much for your assistance with our pest and building inspection. Your knowledge and communication through your investigation of this property was greatly appreciated and put us at ease going forward to auction. Unfortunately we were unsuccessful at auction for this house but we already have our sights on more properties in the near future and would be very happy to rely on your expertise again."

Many thanks,

"Hi Joseph Sydney Building Consultant , I wanted to express my infinite gratitude for all the advice and guidance.Being novel to the realestate rodeo is overwhelming in particular if your understanding of the industry is poor.

Your pre purchase property report avoided us making the biggest mistake of our life. Noticing asbestos exposure as well as your integral view on how the house was not suited for a young family with kids helped us move forward and keep looking for our dream house.

Thank you again for the mentoring and friendly support."

"At the start of 2010 we decided to renovate our 150 year old, three level terrace. This required structural work, a new roof, completely new electricals, a totally new kitchen area, refurbished deck including waterproofing and tiling, rebuilt Juliet balcony off the second bedroom. Sydney building consultant helped us initially to assess the extent of the work required, listening to how we used the different spaces. His respect for quality and functionality meant that we were well guided. Joe was keen to maintain the terrace’s period features, even polishing the original floorboards himself. His network of contacts meant that other contractors proved excellent: painters; plasterer; electrician; floor tilers of balconies; balustrade builder. Throughout the 10 month process, Joe was available, always responding quickly to phone calls, visited the work site daily and invited emails listing jobs to be competed. He was very interested in new products and processes sourced by us, eg; Vergola deck covering; Uretek resin injection for stabilising foundations. We’re very happy with our rejuvenated living conditions and would highly recommend Sydney building consultant to other renovators."
~ Chris and Lesley Moran

"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."

"Many thanks for our new bathroom, fixing drainage and dampness problems and the extras you so kindly did for us. A job well Done! Congratulations. It has been a pleasure to do business with you and your team Joe."

"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!"
