Interior design with Marissa

published

On Monday we completed our internal selections with Marissa. Marissa was fantastic. We were going into the day unsure with our selections and what would work. Marissa was very enthusiastic with a keen eye for detail. She helped point out some variations in our selections that we wouldn't have considered and we're ecstatic with our finished product. Would definitely recommend Marissa for anyone doing their selections.

Great to deal with

Our build with McDonald Jones has been a positive experience with our supervisor Kyle being just a pleasure to work with. His calm and helpful demeanour is second to none. Kyle made sure our house was built to the highest standard and if anything wasn’t up to scratch he had it redone. I had full faith that our new house would be presented very well upon completion.

Great Communication and Full Confidence in McDonald Jones Homes

published

We are now well into the build with the plasterboard going in at the moment. The comms with our site supervisor Max has been absolutely fantastic. He calls me at least once a week to discuss the weeks achievements and what is planned for the upcoming weeks. Fortunately we haven't lost too many days due to weather and most days there appears to be someone on site.

We are building a two story Tulloch 31 on a narrow 400 square meter block. All the builders have been great with the neighbours keeping them informed and addressing any concerns they have raised.

They did on our house, we are happy with the process visually as we did not have a terrible cut requiring retaining. The cut was minimal as we had a good flat block.
