We recently built a custom design with Sloane and would definitely recommend. Inclusions and build quality are of a much higher standard than if you went with a project home builder and allowances he makes in the initial quotation are actually sufficient to get good quality fixtures and appliances! He is also very reasonable with any upgrades and does his best to keep costs down, recommending alternatives etc. Nothing is ever a problem, we made some minor changes during the build without any fuss & he even went and sourced a specific rangehood I wanted that was not available through his supplier

We bought a pre-built Sloane home in August 2020. The build quality and attention to detail is exceptional. Sloane promptly resolved little issues that came up, even with things that other builders would likely shirk responsibility for. We are very happy with the house and the service provided by Sloane and his team. Highly recommended.

I had the pleasure of working with Sloane and his team to build my dream home. Never having built a house before, I had no idea what was involved and how many choices I had to make, it can be very over whelming at times, but Sloane made the whole process as easy as possible from start to finish. I always found Sloane to be honest and easy to work with, he is always very patient (even when I changed my mind a dozen times about something) and makes himself available to talk or answer questions about the progress of the build. Nothing is too much trouble, even moving interior walls because I decided

What a great well built home I have just purchased, after inspecting several exhibition homes with no suitable result my daughter found our Sloane home and insisted I view, reluctantly I succumbed and was immediately impressed with the quality of the build, the design is excellent with sensible features you don't get with others. Sloane and his team have been great to deal with. I can recommend them to you.

We decided to build with Sloane Homes after meeting with Sloane. We found Sloane Homes on line and didn't know Sloane before building. At our first meeting we found Sloane to be friendly, open and flexible with our ideas. We had discussions with the main project builders, but went ahead with Sloane. Very glad we did. Our house was completed in 6 months and to a very high standard of workmanship.
Sloane was on site every working day, either working or supervising the work of the trades. We made a number of small changes along the way and Sloane was always patiently ready to accommodate us.

Twelve months ago my wife and I embarked on the journey to build our retirement house. Just to put you in the picture ... we are both in our early 70's and are fussy people (no...really fussy people). We had a set of custom drawn plans to build a single story house on a 350 sq m block of land. All we lacked was a builder, and a Newcastle Council DA (which took the best part of 6 months to obtain).
After scouring websites, we made a chance phone call to Sloane Porth (building as Sloane Homes). We had never heard of Sloane, no one ever recommended Sloane...it was just a chance phone call. An initial
