What Our Clients Say

We enjoy working with our clients as much as they enjoy working with us and it's great to get positive feedback. Both sub-trades and builders have often become friends with clients - even after the house is finished!

Here's what some of our clients had to say about us:

Daryl just stood out. He asked questions; he got to know us. It was important to him to understand what we wanted to achieve. He was warm and struck me as professional. He's a builder with a good business head and marketing skills, and he focuses on the core of his business - building

- Hayley Middleton

I am terribly fussy and am something of a perfectionist and I was impressed with the standard of workmanship.

- Jennifer Simpson

For a complicated build, it went very smoothly and any queries I had were dealt with promptly and efficiently by the building team.

- Sharen Paine

We were impressed with how organised DJ Hewitt Builders was, right from the outset. During the building process we received regular weekly updates and every last detail was organised ahead of time, so there were never any last minute decisions to make.

- Lia Smith

We liked Daryl as a person and liked the way he handled his business. It wasn't just price, it was the fact that Daryl could take control. As people who own a seven-day-a-week business, this was important. We were first-time home builders, and it was a huge advantage having Daryl as our builder - we felt like we were being guided properly.

- Eliza Rattray and Alfred Lyons

I can only describe the building process with the D.J. Hewitt Team of contractors as simply fantastic.

- Donna Farhi

Daryl is forthcoming with ideas and suggestions and his vast experience helps you make informed decisions. (This was the second home built for the Stewarts by D.J. Hewitt Builders Ltd)

Great build, with very few problems. Rob and Aaron were great! All the sub contractors were very professional, thanks.

- Sunil Patel

From start to finish we found it to be a stress free and enjoyable experience working with Daryl and his Team.

We were impressed with the amazing quality and innovation in the houses Daryl and his team build. Daryl seems to have extremely high standards like me, nothing was ever a problem for him and his team.

I have been very happy with the D.J. Hewitt Team. The house has been finished to a very high standard and the whole building process went smoothly.

With Daryl its all about the client, without exception he makes sure the client leaves happy.

Honesty and integrity are vital to long term success and Daryl mixes in his other ethics of plain hard work and accountability.

- Neil Graham

Building a house can be a stressful process at the best of times. However due to Daryl's excellent organisational and management skills the building process was relatively stress free.

We chose D.J. Hewitt Builders based on Daryl Hewitts reputation as a quality builder with very strict controls over staff, contractors and subcontractors, therefore maintaining his good name he has established in the industry.

Many thanks for making our building experience a positive one. We thoroughly enjoyed the process and would recommend it to anyone.

D.J. Hewitt's personal and genuine interest in the house was obvious. This was followed up with him taking a progression of photographs from the beginning through to the end and presenting us with a pictorial album once we had moved in.
