What our clients are saying
Even though this was our first new build, we had a pretty clear vision of what we wanted from when the site was purchased, but had no idea how to make that vision into a reality. We went with Bruce Design and Build as we were confident they could help us with that. The finished product exceeded our expectations, and we are very happy with our choice to build with Bruce Design and Build.
When we looked at building our third home, we considered various building companies until we had a chance referral to Bruce Design & Build. Upon meeting and working with Russell and his team, we felt that we were onto a winning combination!
We found Russell to be a genuine guy, with the home owner’s best interest at heart. He was on the job when he said he was going to be, kept us up to date with progress, his communication and contact was superb. He fitted in with our contractors (kitchen, bathrooms, carpets, electrician, etc). We had no hold-ups or problems on site.
