Best Construction Supervisor
Steve Djurickovic is the best Construction Supervisor. Easy to approach and well communicated. He always kept us updated on the progress and well organized with contractors. He even took some time to help us communicate with the neighbor when there is misunderstanding on building on the boundary. Really appreciated his time and efforts to make the whole building journey so smooth.

Very good experience
I had a good experience with Simonds. Lucky to have excellent and very cooperative supervisor (Steve). Didn’t have any problem or issue during construction and all requests were managed properly. Pleased with the overall quality of the build. The final cost was reasonable and didn’t go much higher than our estimate.

Good quality workmanship. Would use them again.
Been in the house for 4 months now and very happy with quality of tradies that simonds had used to build. Once they started on site it was quick build for a big house.tradies were there every day working. Steve site supervisor was easy to deal with and happy to meet on site afterhours. Would use them again. Few very minor issues ( paint, silicone caulking, very very.minor)after we moved in but its all getting fixed without any problems. Good one SIMONDS.

Perfect timing and cost estimates
We have been living in our home for a few months now and I am really pleased with the overall quality of the build. Our consultant Luke Townsend was really helpful throughout. He was very transparent with pricing and the timescales he gave us at the outset were accurate.
I would strongly recommend Simonds Homes if you are thinking of building and in particular Luke.

Great first home builders experience
When my partner and I initially started off looking around to build our first home we were very price conscious. We finally found Simonds, competitive pricing without skimping on the quality, what more could you ask for. Our sales team member Jamie was very helpful and quick to respond. The only issue we had was our first administrator wasn't on the ball and let things wait far to long, when we raised this issue to Simonds they were quick to have another administrator who was much more efficient and helpful.
During construction we had Steve as...Read more

Don’t build with Simonds…
We didn’t come to the stage of seeing our contract for the 3.5 months and gave up. We lost 2K deposit and another 2k of interests and fees paid for the land. Hence, I want to warn potential customers NOT to build with Simonds. Some of the reasons are below:
The company has evident staffing problems. Our Sales Consultant left the company shortly after we had signed the preliminary papers. Also, we had to ask to change our Customer Service Representative due to her appalling communication skills- not (fully) replying to emails and not being reac...Read more
hable over the phone. The company has a lack of knowledge/flexibility to adjust to the requirements of the clients. After granting a structural request to obtain our signatures they failed to fulfil it as it was not ‘in their standards’. The company doesn’t stand for the quotes. Our site costs were more than 10K in surplus to the initially quoted. The drawing team changed the initial drawings as per their discretion without even consulting us, with price tags attached. There were constantly some items ‘missed’, ‘miscalculated’, even after the Gallery Selection, bringing the contract prices up and up. The attitude to the clients after paying the deposit. They position themselves as a ‘Sausage Machine’ (the words of the Manager). Obviously, you are the meat there. After multiple adjustments to the contract from their side and some from ours, our request to bring the numbers together was denied- ‘We don’t have time for that, you will see them once the contract is ready’. If the company’s person you are dealing with is sick or on vacation, you have to wait for their return or adjust to THEIR problems, not yours. NONE of the timeframes for the paperwork stages have been accomplished- only delays and promises, obviously, after chasing them up. If you seriously consider to build with Simonds based on the reviews below, think again. We’ve dealt with those ‘admirable’ people and met them personally. Yes, there are people in the company who do their job properly, but for the price you pay and attitude you deal with, you’d better be off from Simonds.6 comments

Customised Walker - Morphettville SA
We met with Luke Townsend at the Seaford Rise Display Centre and were immediately blown away with his excellent customer service. He listened to what we wanted and quickly worked on a plan that would suit our needs. We customized the Walker by removing the lounge room and making Bedrooms 2, 3 as well as the family room larger. We had a butlers pantry and small study included in the design as well. It is an amazing home!

Excellent sales, prompt repairs
It's been just over three months living in our Simonds home, and we've just had our maintenance completed - we submitted the form (which admittedly had some really picky bits and pieces), and the following monday, they were all repaired.
The process was relatively simple, any hiccups throughout the process were smoothed over by our Building Supervisor, Steve Djurickovic; being first home builders, we knew nothing, but Steve had the patience and understanding to guide us through every step.

Kelly has handled issues that have risen wonderfully, with an open mind and has been so incredibly supportive and knowledgeable. She has put our needs first, as the home owner and has ensured our satisfaction when it comes to changes, materials, colours ect.

Excellent Support and Great Design.
We would like to thank Simonds for our beautiful new home, well constructed and delivered in within their set parameters. From the very beginning our sales consultant Cahill was very efficient in helping us secure a block to commence with and gave us his time without question or delay.
During our time in the gallery selection (a process that could have been overwhelming) we had great input and guidance from Trish Dean. It was clear she had experience and knowledge along with great people skills to help us make the selections required.

Finally a Builder we can Trust!
As with any builder and any construction it is impossible for every single thing to go smoothly, so my wife and I had a few issues along the way which admittedly put doubt and concern in our minds. However having been through a build previously with another builder which was an absolutely awful experience we have learned that documented, prompt and fair communication is paramount! This will leave full accountability with the builder having been given fair opportunity to respond and resolve an issue.
Simonds SA's Site Supervisor Steve was a...Read more
n excellent communicator as was Kelly at SA Head Office, between the two of them they were on top of every single issue we came up with and we were soon feeling cautiously comfortable. Throughout the build nothing seemed to be too much trouble for any of the team and they went out of their way to make us happy. After the build was complete and we moved in we were provided with a very professional handover with all the info we could possibly need to feel in control and comfortable. Not to mention a beautiful gift pack as a house warming gift! We were however faced with some fairly serious and urgent issues once in the house and based on our previous experience we immediately feared the worst! So far we have had around five issues that we would consider fairly concerning and requiring immediate attention. I made contact with Kelly and Steve via phone and email, to my utter surprise I received responses from both the very same day, trades people were there within the same week and the issues resolved! As I said earlier, no build goes perfectly and no builder is perfect, however a truly good builder will show themselves to be so in your hour of need when you reach out to them! This was our experience with Simonds SA and we thank them sincerely and congratulate them on putting together a fantastic team with a client satisfaction focus and an incredibly thorough and professional customer service system. Well done Simonds!2 comments

So far, so good
Because of delays with the settlement of our land, our build hasn't started just yet but the experience we have has with Simmonds so far has been excellent. The initial consultations with James were helpful and informative. He had a lot of good suggestions and was very patient - even when we changed our mind about which house we wanted to look at.
From then the girls from the Adelaide office have been in constant contact with us guiding us through the rest of the process from contracts to settlement etc.
As first time builders we have really appreciated the way that we have been treated throughout this process and we are very much looking forward to the build and getting into our home.

We have been dealing with Simmonds for almost 2 years now. Our first ever experience was with Cahill who is in the Blakes Crossing office. From that first initial appointment we have been blown away with how helpful he was. Our selection day was a fantastic experience and made alot easier by the experienced staff.

Two Stunning Homes - Adelaide
Okay, so we were first timers and we took our time before deciding on a builder. Simonds could have got sick of us, with all our questions and concerns... but they didn't. They patiently guided us through every step of the process and were professional and never made us feel silly. From our contract signing through to handover, we found every person we dealt with very friendly and helpful. At gallery selection, we were guided through and did not feel rushed or under pressure to decide. They get that this is a big outlay, and treated us with res...Read more
pect and patience. The Adelaide office is who we mainly dealt with, and Josh was very helpful and returned our calls and emails. Heath was our supervisor, and nothing was too much hassle. We could meet on site regularly and ask as many questions as we liked. The fixed contract helped and we had no nasty surprises. Josh advised us during the build, they had found out we could get NBN pre wired, which would save money doing it later. This was the only extra charge, which we agreed to of course. The houses came up a treat, and everyone that comes through our new homes, is blown away by the style and the quality of the finishes. We did quite a few upgrades, which came up really well. We will live in, and sell one. To give an idea of how good they are, the offers we have received for one house, will very comfortbaly pay for the build of both houses, plus more. So thanks to Simonds Homes Adelaide, and the team there. Couldn't be happier.2 comments

Great journey soo far...
starting from the 1st day the journey is good so far...initially got lot of help from Milie Matrovic(Marsden park). She knows what she is doing, she understood all our requirements and helped us a lot with all the changes which we wanted.
Then we were introduced to Eloise Joseph as our project coordinator. She is been very helpful till now. She was very quick with all my quarries and requests which was asked at the last moment, so big thanks to her.
At Gallery appointment Louise helped a lot to select the colour for the doors and wall.
Great work guys so far...hope it remains the same till the end.

A smooth and easy process
James Richards was very easy to deal with and I did not feel like I was being "sold to", he asked lots of questions, gave advise and went above and beyond to arrange for me to see a display of the home I eventually chose prior to Christmas shutdown. Josh Stevens has also been excellent throughout the selections and contract signing phase. This gives me the confidence that the build will also go smoothly.

My first new house looks fantastic
From the beginning of the project to the finalisation of my beautiful home, Simonds homes and it’s caring staff took extra care in meeting all our demands and needs. I’m a fan of their workmanship and build quality cause it the finishing of the house is amazing. The appliance interior to exterior are well done and value for money. I will definitely recommend all my friend and anyone who wants to build the house to give their project to Simonds cause I’m sure they will not regret the final product they will receive at the end.
Thank you again to Simonds and it’s lovely team for a job well done. Cheers
