More than we ever expected.
This is our third home we have built and is the most professional company we have dealt with. All the way from the quote, estimate, final drawings to breaking ground and now the final product we have been astounded by the professionalism of Hotondo Homes Wallan. A true personal builder.

Dream Home!!!
We completed our build with Hotondo Wallan just on 2 years ago. From the first inquiry to post construction service we cannot fault the Hotondo Wallan team. Building a home can be very stressful, and when making the biggest investment of your life you want to make the right choices. The Hotondo Wallen team are professional, flexible and made themselves available - even after many (many, many) emails or calls it was never a problem, they were always willing to help or provide guidance.. They were there every step of the way to answer your quest...Read more
ions. The finished product was more than we could of hoped for, with quality finishes and we were able to make the design entirely ours. We had very minimal problems, but they were fixed immediately with no issue. We would recommend this team to anyone, and couldn't be happier with the home the created for us.1 comment

Great local builder
We originally didn’t expect to build, but explored builders in the local area and found Hotondo homes, thankfully!
The build was great and surprisingly not as stressful as we thought.
Staff kept us informed every step of the way, especially for each change and also the progress.
Any issues we had were handled with great communication, and were fixed in a timely fashion. It was a big advantage that the team and contractors were local, as any adjustments along the way could be processed straight away!
Our final cost was a little over budget, due to our own added adjustments, but the team ensured we could modify the plans to suit us and our budget in every way.
With the help of everyone involved it looks amazing! Thank you!

Love our house is perfect, builders were amazing to deal with and quality is really good.
Build was managed perfect, we were informed off everything that was going on weekly! Quality of the our home is perfect. We had a few little problems with getting permits and what not but they were all handled great. Pretty much perfect there were a few extra costs due to us upgrading a few things. All in all we are wrapped.

Great First Home Experience
As this is the first home we have ever built, we were very pleased with the whole process. We have heard stories of how 'difficult and stressful' building a house is, but we did not experience this with Hotondo (Waydon) Wallan. Every step of the way we were kept informed on the progress of the build and the team was friendly, easy going and helpful with all of our first home questions and concerns.
The build quality is quite good and you can see that Waydon take pride with their workmanship. There were a few minor hiccups along the way but the...Read more

Fantastic experience
We really appreciated the way Waydon builders (hotondo) group approached our much loved home. They were very professional and really great to work with.
The trades were amazing and showed top workmanship. The communication between the office ladies and the supervisors were second to none.
We will definately build with them again.

Hotondo wallan great to deal with. The fellas went the extra mile. Always happy to fix/ amend any issues.
The build was managed very well. Great conversation and communication levels.
Trades have left a little to be desired but all issues have been dealt with by great staff at Hotondo.
The final cost of the build was well within our budget and there was no hidden surprises at the end of the day.

Very pleased with our home
We recently moved in to our new Hotondo (Waydon Builders) custom built home in Hidden Valley. We're very happy with the build. We first met Melissa in the main office, who was lovely to deal with. After meeting with Wayne and Donna, we made the decision to build with Hotondo. We liked that it was a family-run business, where all the team members we dealt with were personable and down to earth.
Kalen, Keegan and Matt were great to work with during the build and kept us up to date. Any questions or concerns were promptly responded to. They were...Read more
flexible during the build and happily accommodated changes. During the build process we often dropped by to have a look at the progress. The tradies were more than happy to say hello and give us an update and have a chat. Many of the tradies made suggestions throughout which improved the end result. We felt that all people involved were interested in providing the best outcomes. As expected for any build there were minor fixes needed as found during final inspection prior to handover. These weren't major problems and were dealt with appropriately. We feel that we have a well-built, quality home, delivered by a team that cared about our experience and take pride in their work. Were we to build in the area again we would happily choose Hotondo Wallan (Waydon Builders).1 comment

Met our expectations
We chose Hotondo Homes (Waydon Builders) because they were local and had a good reputation. Our home was built professionally with good quality materials. Nothing was to much trouble for the site manger. We had some changes to the original plan and these were dealt with easily. All the staff were a pleasure to deal with. Our contract was a fixed price and there were no surprises. We recommend Hotondo Homes Wallan to our friends.

A great house from a wonderful team
We chose Hotondo Wallan because they were local and had a great reputation.
From the first meeting to look at house designs and options everything was smooth and easy. We had regular meetings to choose all our finishings, look at upgrades or changes we wanted and set a build start/end date.
All our expectations were met from start to finish. All the changes we wanted were never a problem, upgrades like double glazing, ducted heating/cooling and external works such as driveways and letter boxes were never an issue. It always seemed like nothing ...Read more

Magnificent home
The build went so smoothly from the very start to the end. We were informed regularly either by phone, meeting or test with photos of different stages and aspects of the build.
The workmanship seems to be excellent. We moved into the home approx 3 weeks ago and have not found any problems so far. Any concerns we had during the build which were minor were handled promply by all of the staff at Wallan. The cost was as estimated and as expected. We are so thrilled with the whole experience and have already recommended several people to contact Wayne & Keegan Marc.

A good experience
We started our journey with Melissa at the Hotondo office in Wallan, she was so friendly and her communication was excellent. We picked a layout that we liked and went to look at the display house and decided it was the one for us. We wanted to make some changes to the plans and Melissa assured us that it wouldn’t be problem. We went backwards and forwards with the draftsman making tweaks to our plans through Melissa at no cost to us. Once we finalised our floor plan we then went back and forth with Keegan on the pricing of different parts of t...Read more
he build. Throughout the build Kalen, the building supervisor would either call us or send a text every week with an update and plan for that week and informing us of the progress of the build and answered any of our questions. They used local tradesmen for majority of the build, some of them we personally knew from the area which we thought it was great that they were supporting local tradesmen. The electrician asked us to walk through the house and point out exactly where we wanted our lights to be. We did have one major hiccup with the plumbing (at no fault of the builder) but Keegan and Kalen were very transparent with their communication about this and got the problem sorted ASAP. Our build took approximately 6.5 months but that includes the Christmas break. The site was always clean comparatively to the other building sites with other builders in the street and our neighbour even commented on the cleanliness of our site during the build. After moving in, we’ve been very happy with the quality of our build, we had our 3 monthly maintenance check and all of the items (they were minor) were fixed up promptly. If we ever build again, we’d definitely be happy to go through them.1 comment

Simply the best.
I could not speak more highly of our build process with Hotondo Homes Wallan! From the initial consultation to handover we were taken care of and kept in the loop every step of the way. The whole team were extremely knowledgeable, patient, and accommodating (even though I was extremely indecisive and changed my mind a million times before construction had even begun!) The finished product was everything I envisioned and more. Spending the first night in our new house it already felt like home, and for that I could not be more thankful. If you are building don’t even consider anyone else, Hotondo Homes Wallan are simply the best.

Couldn’t ask for a better builder
Throughout my entire build I knew exactly where everything was up to, when trades where coming in and what to expect in the coming weeks
The finishes are to an amazing quality and the guys really treated like there own, if they weren’t happy they made sure it was taken care of
We hit a hurdle with the flooring which was not there fault but the team could not of been more helpful to rectify the situation
I was well aware of the costs and came in under budget which I was pleasantly surprised
Could not recommend the team highly enough

Hotondo Homes Wallan - 5 star excellent builders = super happy home owners!
From the moment I met the first point of contact of Hotondo Wallan, Melissa, I knew I didn't want to build with anyone else. I didn't even get quotes from other builders!
Melissa is the nicest person I have ever met, super professional, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, personable and most importantly genuine. I got the best vibe from her instantly and from start to finish the whole process was a pleasure. I was a little sad once I finished the initial stage of choosing a house etc. with Melissa, as catching up with her was great!
