Still waiting for our certificate of completion and warranty papers. Sick of chasing these guys for everything. Steve the owner needs to do a lot of work training right people for the Job. The foreman we had was ibi very unprofessional. I have just heard DB Homes has just went into receivership and in debt hope this does not effect our paperwork.

Promised a 3 month build. 1 year and 1 month ongoing. They will say anything to get you to part with your money but not provide the work that they promised. They didn't take out builders insurance on the build. Their workers wouldn't know quality work if it hit them in the face. There's dents in the wall where a worker has broken the gyprock and they just keep brushing it off instead of fixing it properly. The bathroom window doesn't close properly but they claim is "normal". The person who installed the doors, installed them upside down. They take floor plans and electricity plans as suggestions

So far, the construction of our granny flat has gone to plan and we are very happy with the team at Db homes and the feedback they provide. Jason - one of the foreman was very accommodating and helpful all through making the entire project fun and productive. We work across nations and we will be happy to employ their services on our projects overseas.

We recently built a granny flat with DB-Homes and had a fantastic experience! They offered quality inclusions in comparison to competitors and were quick to responses. Alex and Rick were informative and very helpful during the sales process to build our custom granny flat. Jason Taouk (Project Manager) was taking lead throughout the build and kept us informed along the way. He always made time available to us to review the granny flat when it suited our schedule and was quick to address any areas of concern. As with any build there are always going to be minor defects, however these were addressed

Steve and everyone there is truly amazing! Over the past few years i have built 3 granny flats with DB Homes and they have not once disappointed me. Would like to thank everyone there for carrying out such an outstanding service. I am also amazed with the speed of service DB Homes carried out from the point of design to the selection of materials. Highly recommend them

Building a Granny Flat with DB Homes was an unexpectedly great experience. The office and on site supervision staff that I mainly dealt with, including Shelley, Ibrahim and Jason reflected their personal and the companys high level of accountability, through their honest attention and clear, prompt responses to any of my concerns or enquiries. My role as a customer in the progress of the project became the communication and the observation of a smooth progress of well timed events, with minimal schedule deviations, resulting in the completion of a quality project, earlier than the timeframe

We were recently given the keys to our new granny flat constructed by DB Homes who have surpassed our expectations. Everyone from the organisation who has been involved has been very helpful and professional from start to finish. We are particularly grateful to our sight supervisor, Murat. He is very honest and great to work with and we were very impressed with the regular updates he provided throughout construction. Thank you Murat and DB Homes, we look forward to our next project with you.
