Captain's Building & Carpentry Services

“I built with this builder and I will never build again, thanks to Nick, 18 months to build and still not finished. He uses every excuse possible and the contract means nothing. I do not recommend this builder. find another builder”

“Poor after building service will not return under warranty fix faults”

“Building Guarantee means nothing to this business have had nothing but problems would not recommend”

“We employed David Haynes to do our ensuite.
Not only were there significant issues with the quality of workmanship, rough/chipped tiling, non square walls, poor plastering, underfloor heating incorrectly laid, door jams narrower than walls, wrong tile adhesive in shower tray resulting in moving tiles. The advice and trades he recommended were also shockingly bad. No less than 6 registered builders have commented on the dodgy job he did.”

“Fergus Holt from Holt Developments has done many jobs for us over the last few years, two being quite major. We had extensive white ant damage to the rear of our weatherboard house. The boards were an old size but Fergus was able to source them and do a great job with all the repairs. He also did an extension to make our garage into a grannie flat, adding a kitchen and bathroom. Both jobs were done in a very professional way. We can strongly recommend him to do excellent work.”

“Holt Developments has completed three projects for us.
Fergus Holt, the principal, is a well-trained, skilled tradesman who takes real pride in doing a good job. He is amiable to deal with, makes sound recommendations regarding all work and holds himself to the highest professional standards.
We've been more than happy with his high standard of work and would gladly recommend Holt Developments to anyone seeking quality plastering and other work, particularly in Victorian or heritage buildings.”

“my has house with major safety defects. When challenged (09/15) by building inspector Andy Boaden (climate build) they threatened bankruptcy. 35 building defects, complaints with building commission. Shame on you Andy Boaden Climate Build!”

“Whatever you do, do not under any circumstances employ this man/company for work you will regret it. You will be left thousands of dollars out of pocket with an unfinished project, and then he will run and hide. My poor friends Mr and Mrs Street are extremely disappointed in their- what was once to be dream home. Now having the expensive and time consuming experience of going to the Building Commissioner and court. I do have documented evidence.”

“A terrific job done by Delaware Homes experts. My previous builder had left me disappointed in terms of services and results. I was wary of making the same mistake again but all my fears and apprehensions were dispelled by the team of professionals at Delaware Homes. I was kept updated on the work progress throughout. Their price quote was fair and reasonable, given the quality of services provided. My loft certainly looks reinvigorated and aesthetically appealing now.”

“This business is in the business of taking large deposits and not completing the work. (I know of 2 others who have lost $29,000 and $17,000 respectively). He is not a registered builder, the business is in the process of being struck off by ASIC and he is under investigation by the VBA.”

“Holt Developments, suscessfuly tender for renovation work to my property. The workmanship was excellent, on budget and on time.

Very happy with the service provided”

Building a new home can be stressful however Rob, Scott and their entire team made it as stress free as possible, nothing was ever an issue they always had time for our project and were always contactable.
We couldnt be happier with our new home.
Thank you Rob, Scott and the Aclass Team. ”

“Fergus and his team from Holt Developments carried out some repair and restoration work on our Federation home recently and we are delighted with the results. Fergus has great expertise in older homes and gave excellent advice. The standard of workmanship was superb, and their punctuality and tidiness, exceptional. We would not hesitate to engage them again and to recommend them to others.”

“I am very pleased with their services and will definitely use them again in future. Thanks for the great job, guys!

Yours, Lans”

“After seeing the design of my new home, it felt like Royce Beal was inside my head all througout the design process for he really caught what I was having inside my mind. He really was creative and innovative that is shown in his designs.”

“Optam Building Group has been really professional in dealing with us. They have been really accomodating of our ideas and suggestions. It made us feel like though they have their own way of designing homes, they are still interested about us, their clients, decision on making homes.”

“Their creativity is beyond imagination. They are able to create designs for homes that are located even on the most awkward positions. All you have to do is show them the lot and then they work on it at once. Thanks for the professionalism OPTAM BUILDING!”

“Not only did they help me conceptualize my new home to be much like what I want it to be, they also suggested me to make it an energy efficient one. Not only do I save energy costs with their design, I am now part of a revolution that helps save mother nature. Thanks!”

“Our start was a little bit slow, as me and my husband had different ideas about our ideal home. After many, many discussion we agreed that Nuvo Homes will be our builder.. The staff was very helpful and very professional. There were no issues with any part of the build process.”

“It was absolutely awesome to watch Royce Beale work. We took him to the house we were renovating for ourselves, and he immediately started sketching out our ideas, explaining what worked, what didn't and what he could do as a compromise. We trusted his expertise, and were rewarded with a home we're very happy to call our own.”

“I owe Royce Beale and his team at Optam many thanks. They created the perfect house for me according to what I had told them was my dream. The project was started and done on time, which isn't usual. But Royce and his team were very professional, knew exactly what they were doing and how to do it right. I would absolutely recommend them, many times over.”
