Baddock Building

Mark and Amanda Baddock from Baddock Building have delivered us a beautiful home that we all love living in. We went from a termite ridden old style, hopeless, run down house into a great small family home. It's not a massive 5 bedroom mansion, but it's ours the way we like and it's perfect (the new parts anyway). Baddock Building delivered this throughout some of the most trying times during lock downs and materials shortages. We had to remain on the property for large chunks of the build due to the lock down situation and Mark, Amanda and the team delivered such a wonderful finished product. We've been in the house now for 18 months and there have been no problems to any of the works that were done. We had significant steel put in the roof to allow for a major open plan living area and the interface that was done between the older remaining building sections and the new build have been great. Like any build, there were problems and changes that needed to be made that would be in line with any old building however all this was done clearly, concisely and professionally. The original plan was for a much larger build however the onset of Covid and financial restrictions downsized the build. We were probably tricky customers as we had few options to clear out of the property in full, young kids and dogs to boot. Mark was hugely patient with all of that and have delivered us a fabulous home to live in. It was delivered on budget and ahead of schedule. It was also our first major renovation so the process for us was new. Mark did a great job stepping us through the process. Invoicing and progress payment system was easy to use and understand and made life a breeze. I took far too long to write this review however I can say that even after nearly 2 years, the only issues we've had are a few minor cracks where timber has shrunk, and the front door handle needed adjusting, both easy fixes and in line with an old building. From the day Mark turned up to look at the place, it's been an absolute pleasure dealing with Baddock Building. I'd gladly have them back for another build down the track. I wish them all the best with their future endeavours and business growth. For reference: The build was a 2/3 rip out and re-build of a 1970's Red Brick house, with moderate termite damage. Removal of garage and conversion into new kitchen & open plan living area. Fabrication and construction of new structural steel, central AC, Installation of sliding stacker doors on 2 sides, new double glazed windows, rendering and guttering. New electrics and kitchen, flooring throughout. The team were friendly, professional and did great work, even on the parts of the build that no one will ever see. Interface with the old building was tricky due to age and previous termite damage. Design/Plans were done by JAH designs, Kitchen by Kitchenworks. Electrical and plumbing contractors were also superb. Thanks for all your efforts Mark, Amanda and team.

The Baddock team did a huge renovation for us, going upstairs and out the back and in the end rebuilding many of the walls downstairs. All work was done to a high quality with great communication and integrity. Mark and his team always did the right thing, made many great recommendations and were really helpful throughout. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Mark, Amanda and their team worked with us this year to renovate our house. They built us a first floor addition and gutted and rebuilt our ground level including a new kitchen and 3 new bathrooms. The work was completed under time and on budget. Mark and Amanda were great to work with and made the process so much easier than it could have been, answering all our questions without ever making us feel stupid. They provided recommendations whenever we were stuck on a decision and even saved us when we didn’t like the paint colour we picked for our house (after one coat) and wanted to change it! The whole Baddock Building Team were polite and friendly, so much so that when we asked my neighbours if the build had been annoying for them (as we moved out for the renovation period) they said that it was great having them around. They are professional and focused on quality and we are very happy we found them!

Mark and the team at Baddock Building helped us with a major renovation of our 1960s home. This involved opening up our living space, renovating two bathrooms, installing a new kitchen and laundry and construction of a new carport. The job was completed on time and on budget. Mark and Amanda kept us updated throughout the whole project and were a pleasure to work with. As first time renovators they made the process easy and didn’t make us feel like we were asking stupid questions (although I’m sure we were)! We were also really impressed with all the trades that we came across as part of the project. Their professionalism and attention to detail was second to none. Working with Baddock Building makes me want to renovate again!

We recently completed a major renovation with the wonderful team at Baddock Building. Mark and Amanda were very easy to work with, and the entire team are such nice guys. They turned up on time, worked fast and effectively, tidied up each day, and were very respectful. They delivered a better than expected result, exactly to the agreed budget. Even when issues occurred, the resolution was with minimal fuss. And the extended team they used (plumbers, electricians, tilers, plasterers) all worked to the high standard set by Baddock Building. I thoroughly recommend anyone looking to do building works or renovations to work with Mark and the team. We are going to be scheduling all our future renovations around Mark's availability.

Mark and his team of professionals along with the Trades they use all share the same passion as Mark does and that is attention to detail, efficiency and reliability. From the initial quoting process to the finished product Mark and his team make you feel like you are the only customer they are working with. We could not be happier with our renovation and I would highly recommend Baddock building for any renovation including kitchen, bathroom or 2nd story addition. We received honest advice and pricing on the project that stayed within the expected price point. The work was finished on time and Mark's team are extremely efficient. I would also use his trades again for plumbing and electrical work. Thanks Mark and team for letting us entrust you with our renovation project.

We used Baddock Building on an en-suite renovation and creation of a walk in wardrobe. Mark was the first builder to confidently agree the work could be done the way we planned. Mark and Amanda were professional, upfront and provided sound advice for our project. Mark and all the tradies used were polite, professional and communicated well with us along the way. We’ve already recommended Baddock Building to our friends and hope we can use them again on something bigger!

We can’t recommend Baddock Building highly enough. From the initial quote right through to completion of our second storey renovation and deck, Mark and Amanda were exceptional, offering great advice, excellent quality work, and even allowed us to stay on the existing level throughout the build, saving us from expensive alternative accommodation; plus they got us in to our new storey before Christmas! Every question and query was answered quickly and helpfully, and the whole team were friendly, respectful, clean, and did an excellent job. We are very happy with our new parent’s retreat and deck! Thank you Baddock Building!

We put in a second story, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms a kitchenette and a lounge, so a big, complex job. There are not enough superlatives to rate Baddock Building, I cannot fault them in any way. From start to finish Mark and Amanda Baddock are top professionals, organised and in control of every aspect of our project. Mark is meticulous with the finest details and sees every aspect of the project to its conclusion, Amanda in the backroom makes sure the coordination happens as it should. His team follows his lead and the contractors he uses (plumbers etc.) operate in the same vain. Communication on a project of this size is key, and Mark and Amanda ensured we were kept in the loop with all stages. And finally, every person who came on site were friendly to deal with, which is a credit to Mark and Amanda. If you want work done right, you can't do better than Baddock Building.

Mark, Amanda and the Baddock Building team were absolutely fantastic with every aspect of our recent renovation. From the moment they turned up to quote, to the moment they put the finishing touches on the build they were so professional and easy to deal with. I cannot speak highly enough of the quality of work they delivered and the seamless way that they dealt with all of the challenges of our 1950's house. The team were always on time, were spotless in their daily clean up and were very polite and respectful with all aspects of our house (including the 2 kids and the dog). Mark and Amanda were in constant communication with us regarding deliveries, trades and invoicing and made our lives so much easier by not having to worry about a thing. We have already had so many comments about how amazing the outdoor space looks and haven't stopped using it since its completion. We would strongly recommend Baddock Building to anyone and will definitely be calling on them again when the next project comes up. Our project was: new cladding across the entire back of the house, bi-fold doors, replacement gutters and down pipes, and a new deck. The end result looks amazing and has completely transformed the look of our house - this has made such a great impact to not only the house itself but our lives as well. Thank you Mark, Amanda, Matt, Bailey, Garrett and Ryan

From start to finish our renovations with Baddock building went smoothly. Mark and Amanda and their team consulted with us on all the details big and small along the way and were able to give us both practical and design related advice helping us get the most out of our spaces. The team were always friendly, respectful and cleaned up after themselves- a big deal when your living in the space being renovated with two small kids. We are beyond happy with our finished spaces and look forward to using Baddock building again on future projects.

We recently worked with Baddock Building on our renovation in Allambie Heights. Mark helped us to engage a structural engineer in order to remove three walls and open up our kitchen, living and dining area. They also removed our kitchen, built new stairs for us and arranged new gyprock, trim and cornicing. From the moment we met Mark we knew we’d found someone who cared deeply about achieving great results for his clients, was incredibly professional and that we could trust fully. Working with Mark and Amanda was incredibly smooth and a real pleasure. They offered clear communication, managed a range of trades (e.g. asbestos removal) for us, and their team was a pleasure to have around the house. They were really polite, hard working and respectful. We are thrilled with the finished project and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mark and Amanda at Baddock Building. We hope to be able to work with them again when we do our bathroom reno early next year. Thank you Baddock Building!
