Richard and his whole Team including Construction Foreman, Patrick did a great job on our complex build; a renovation and major expansion of an old Victorian era terrace house in Fitzroy North. The quality of the trades was excellent and the employees were friendly and helpful. The project was done in the middle of Covid lock downs but were still able to get the project done in a reasonable time period and within scope and budget. Any defects noted at completion were completed to our satisfaction. We would have no hesitation in recommending this experienced builder and his team. Overall, we were very happy with the results.

We reached out to Housespec Builders to repair water damaged areas in our home. Andrew and Richard were awesome, always professional and maintaining regular communication of work and timelines. The team is skilled at what they do and delivered quality results.

Thanks again, Andrew, Richard and team!

We are very thankful to have chosen Housespec builders to build our family home. Andrew Richard and Patrick are an excellent team. If you’re looking for a builder that cares about the quality of their work, and who is attentive and responsive to your questions and ideas, we would highly recommend choosing Housespec. We are very happy with our new home.

Andrew Wong is very professional and friendly. He knows what he is talking about. He goes well beyond his duty. He attended our enquiry very quickly with professionalism. It was pleasure to deal with him. Highly recommended.

Andrew and the team were great to deal with.

Andrew and his team were really helpful with my renovations. There advice and service 10 out 10

I would highly recommend Richard, Andrew, Patrick and the Housespec team to anyone wanting to renovate. The team are reliable, flexible, and very patient when it came to hiccups along the way that come with renovating a 100 year old house in the inner north. The team were very professional, A grade quality work from the team themselves to the contractors engaged along the way. We are very impressed with our finished house that is now a lovely home.

Andrew and his team are a very professional , completed our work on time and in A grade quality! Will definitely recommend to anyone.

Would highly recommend Richard, Andrew, Patrick and the Housespec team to anyone wanting to renovate or build.

Very professional team, who listen to what the client wants and create an amazing finished product. All finishes are consistent, beautiful and in-keeping with the style of the home.

So glad we chose to use Housespec. They made a stressful time easy and delivered an incredible finished product.

A huge thank you to the Housespec team.

We are so glad that we chose Housespec to renovate and extend our home. Always professional, with great attention to detail. Even under difficult circumstances and conditions with covid-related shutdowns and shortages, Housespec kept us informed with the status of the build and really went above and beyond to deliver our dream home. We really appreciated the clear communication and the amazing ability to troubleshoot some very unexpected surprises that came up along the way. A huge thank you to Richard, Patrick, Andrew and the whole housespec team for making it possible.

We used House Spec to renovate and extend our California Bungalow in the inner north. The service they provided was second to none. They were responsive, helpful, and engaged at every stage of the build. The quality of the work is top notch and we are so impressed with the finished product. The advice given by the team to improve the build was always on point and well costed. I highly recommend the team at House Spec.

We engaged Housespec to renovate our 90 year Brunswick weatherboard with a heritage overlay. We couldn't be happier with the result, our old house has been transformed into a beautiful warm, light filled space. The build quality and attention to detail is excellent. Richard and Patrick were very responsive to any issues or questions along the way and made the process easy for us non builders to navigate, especially through the ups and downs of Covid. I highly recommend Housespec to anyone interested in building or renovating and wanting a professional job done.

Our journey has been a long and tricky one, but Housespec stuck by us the whole time. We had plans drawn up to convert our garage into a semi self contained space. What we didn’t expect was the difficulty we would face trying to get permits and approvals from council etc for the project. Richard and his team helped come up with the solutions that we needed. Once the build started, we were blown away with the quality of the trades - in particular Andy the plumber, Glenn the sparky, and Jarrod the all rounder (plus the painter, carpenter, kitchen builder/installer, tiler and flooring installers). Patrick managed our project, and is one of the nicest, most patient and hard working guys. We could not be more pleased with the result of our build. Thanks Housespec.

We used Housespec Builders for a knockdown rebuild of our old weatherboard house in Oakleigh and could not be happier with our modern Hamptons style dream home. Having never built or renovated before we feel incredibly lucky that we chose Housespec for the project. What a team, Richard, Andrew and Patrick our Project Manager were all wonderful to deal with. We were kept updated throughout the whole build and provided with progress photos. Patrick was amazing and we appreciated his knowledge and advice. We experienced no dramas, the build was so efficient and the quality of Housespec's work is second to none. We would not hesitate to recommend Housespec to anyone who is looking for a efficient and reliable builder.

A friend recommended Housepec to us when, as complete novices, we wanted to build two units in our block of land in Croydon. Housepec was very quick and competitive in their quote to us. But what sold us was Andrew. We met him and knew we could trust this man. And he did not disappoint us. Covid did make things a little difficult towards the end of the build with all its restrictions and delays but it took little away from what Andrew and his team delivered. We are really enjoying our two units now. We were very impressed with Andrew’s prompt responsiveness in every situation. Rain or shine, sickness or health, new born baby or sleepless nights, he was always there; extremely accomodating, helpful and gave very practical and honest advices. Having very little idea what we were doing, we must have driven Andrew up the wall sometimes! But his patience was exemplary. We are so very grateful. Without his guidance, patience and understanding, it would have been a difficult build for us. We had the pleasure to meet Richard and Patrick, the other members of the team as well. We were equally impressed with these two. Hardworking, warm and pleasant, they were absolute professionals. What a team (A Team) they make! It’s not often you meet a team where every member is as excellent as the other. They were also extremely helpful and experienced in dealing with the authorities and took care of everything for us. Our land had a few difficult technical problems and they were able to solve them with Council and Utility Authorities with minimum headache for us. Towards the latter part of the build, we were more in contact with Patrick. What an absolute asset he is; to Housepec we are sure. The man works SO hard, can remember a million and one thing and when he promises you something, he delivers. Well done Housepec A Team!!👏👏And we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your services to others. Only “problem” we foresee is the rapid growth of your clientele…. but what a good problem to have, yah?! 😅😃

Housespec recently built our new home in Ivanhoe. The site had very narrow access, which some builders wouldn't even consider. Housespec was fabulous. They kept the site very clean, were considerate of the neighbours and did great job navigating through all the issues associated with Covid (supply, lockdowns etc). The quality of the build is very good - they clearly take pride in their work. They are always happy to talk through changes and suggestions and I found them to be very reasonable in this regard. I would definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone considering a new build.

The team at HouseSpec managed and delivered a wonderful house build project for us.Communication was impeccable, coordination of tradesmen and supplies was very impressive and they moved confidently through the numerous build stages. I transacted some variations along the way, to which they accommodated willingly and masterfully. They complied with evolving OH&S and Covid workplace policies. Site manager (Patrick) is an absolute treasure and worked diligently to ensure we were happy every step of the way.To this, I offer my personal recommendation to engage Richard, Andrew and the team at HouseSpec Builders for your next building project!

Andrew and Richard were able to assist us through a difficult time in our project and provide advice to enable us to progress to an end point. They were happy to help with advice whenever called upon which assisted us in clearing council matters and other delays when no one else would step up. Both of you have been fantastic to deal with during what we have found to be a challenging project. Seriously cannot thank you both enough.

My company has been dealing with Housespec for many years now. During this time I have found Andrew and the team to be very professional. Our work sees us in touch with their customers after handover, all feedback we receive from Housespec customers is extremely positive. Well done guys, keep up the woodwork.

We found that all House spec staff were professional,kind and courteous we would highly recommended them. A big thank you to Stuart Cabinet maker for our beautiful kitchen and butlers kitchen. Over all every one was wanderful.A big thank you guys. Denise

I engaged Housespec to carry out extensive renovations inside and outside. The trades people engaged were of a very high quality and well managed by the project manager. They took care to be clean and respectful. The quality of the work was very high and price competitive. When difficulties arose they responded quickly and effectively and remedied any defects without question. I could not recommend them any more highly. I would encourage anyone to consider them for their own building works.

Richard and Patrick were amazing to work with for our tiny home renovation in Richmond. Their extensive experience allowed them to give us advice on all parts of the build including small details which really make the house look spectacular. They were able to advise us on what we should be paying for extras like aircon and fireplace install which prevented us from getting ripped off. They did a great job at adapting to Covid and keeping the project moving forward.Would highly recommend using Housespec service's.

Excellent communication, easy to deal with. Will deal again

At last, the building plan was approved! We needed a builder!As a builder himself in oversea, my husband went round the neighborhood looking for a suitable builder. Andrew Wong of Housespec was head hunted.Andrew provided best communication both by phone and email. He provided fair price, transparent, always happy to assist.Through out the construction, there were hickups due to architectural overlooks and engineering amendments, Andrew has willingly at his own expense liaise with ppl involved to resolve the problems promptly.Andrew is always approachable for advice. He was very patient with us when making variations. Always share his experience.Thank you again Andrew, Richard, Patrick and the whole team. Appreciated very much.Very fastidious, professional, great service, I will highly recommend them to my friends.

I used Housespec Builders for a 3 unit development and would not hesitate using them again or recommending to friends.Both Richard and Andrew were very helpful and professional; from willing to visit me in person to discuss the quote in the early stages, to working beyond the scope of works to navigate the many bureaucratic roadblocks that seemed to regularly appear along the way.Richard was always quick to answer any questions I had and gave me regular progress updates throughout the build.Overall build quality is excellent, even with a build of this size only a few very minor issues had to be corrected. Definitely worth chatting to them if you are considering a build or renovation.

Housespec is truly a great custom builder who has a true passion for the trade. Housespec has been really flexible and extremely easy to deal with throughout the build process. Everyone on the team are always ready to showcase their work. That is the difference you get from a group of passionate professionals who are proud of their quality work. I'd recommend anyone anytime to go with Housespec and I do look forward to embarking on my next building adventure with Housespec. Thank you Richard, Patrick and Andrew for passionately building our beautiful home!

Thank you, Andrew, for your attentiveness, fairness and professionalism throughout this entire process of building a home. You have been with us every step of the way by understanding our needs - with ensuring all the little details are attended to and supporting us in making the big decisions. Despite unavoidable hiccups, you and your team took up the challenges head on and pulled through with flying colours. Cannot speak more highly of Andrew and his team and we look forward to working with you again if the opportunity presents itself.

This review is for Andrew from Housespec. I hope this review helps someone who, like us, has faced tremendous hurdles in starting an owner builder project of a considerable size. It was a God-sent when we found Andrew!Andrew has been kindly giving us free advise and the way that we should go and had given us many valuable contacts which we could explore. I have not encountered many people in the building industry to be so willing to share information like Andrew did. The tradespeople whom Andrew has recommended were top class in their work ethic. They pick up and return phone calls, are excellent in their respective field of work, efficient and don't muck around. And they all have praised Andrew's fine building work, integrity and reliability. We have subsequently chosen to engage the service of the many tradespeople Andrew has recommended us and we could not be more pleased!Thank you SO much, Andrew. Our project would not have come to suchideal stage and shape if not for your kind help. We cannot thank youmore!If you are thinking of building a home or are contemplating any building job of any kind and size and find yourself in the dark, hesitate no longer. Do yourself a favour by giving Andrew a buzz and you'll not be disappointed!

We have just subdivided and Housespec Builders built our new double storey townhouse investment property at the rear, 77a Bonnie View Croydon Nth.I can not thank Richard, Andrew & Patrick enough for their help with guiding us through this complex project, with no major hiccups. They are very helpful, transparent, and happy to assist if they can. Very fastidious, professional and I am more than happy with the quality of work. Gave helpful advice of where to save costs and where it was better to spend the money. I think they gave great service, a quality product at a fair price.I also thank them for providing their sub-contractor details so we could use them on prepping the front house to go on the market to be sold. They to were very helpful and provide good quality work at a fair price.I would not hesitate to recommenced them .

I have had a lot of exposure to different builders through my work and i believe we've been really lucky to find Richard, Andrew and the team at Housespec. They've been incredible to work with.No problem was too great or too small, in fact many challenges were dealt with and resolved well before we encountered them. Their processes and experience made everything straight forward. The tradesmen we dealt with were all easy to work with and delivered quality results.I can't thank Housepec enough for their hard work. I'll definitely use them again for a future construction and I'm already recommending them to friends and clients.

When I was looking to build for the first time, I spoke to three building companies. However it was Andrew and Richard from Housespec that impressed me and put me at ease right from the word go. I found them to be approachable and also very patient in answering my many questions. Their quote was also competitively priced and they were fair and transparent with me throughout the build. Any concerns or issues during the build were also promptly dealt with or addressed to my satisfaction. Their onsite project manager Patrick was also a pleasure to deal. I would have no hesitation in recommending Housespec or using them again.

We have recently completed a two townhouse project with Housespec. It was a pleasant experience dealing with Andrew throughout the quotation and build. He was always responsive to our request by both email and phone and also communicated very well. He respected my schedule and always show up for appointment on time. Overall, we are happy with the finish quality and workmanship. Highly recommended!!

We have just completed our investment home with Andrew. He quoted us a very fair price and always take care of the cost. Very reliable builder and response very fast with any queries and solve the problem promptly. Would highly recommend!

Dealing with Housespec is very easy. Andrew has been very responsive and always provide updates about the project along the way, all the way. He is very flexible and accommodating too. I strongly recommend Housespec to anyone.

Excellent workmanship! We’re pleased with the quality of the house built by HouseSpec. Thank you for your help to build our dream home!

Highly recommended! Reliable, flexible, and very patient! We have contacted many builders for our 1st building project, but only Andrew from Housepac, provided the best prompt communication, details quotation with a fair price, and patiently answer all our questions throughout the build. Our project is definitely not a easy one for our 1st attempt, but Andrew & Richard are able to come up with solutions to minimize extra cost. Their trademen are all first class and easy to due with. My friends all very impressed with their workmanship. The after build services are great too! They will follow up promptly any problems or repairs if needed. I think we might have given it up, or cost much more and longer to finish the build without the help of Housepac. Definitely would build it again with Housepac!

I have done 3 build projects with HOUSESPEC builders, ranging from new residential unit developments and a renovation of a dental clinic (see pictures attached). I have found Richard and Andrew both to be very prompt, reliable, flexible, fair and approachable. I would not hesitate to use them again and am very happy with the final result. Building and renovating comes with many challenges and you need to be able to deal with people who are fair, reliable and honest. Both Richard and Andrew are these kinds of people. And no, I didn't get paid to do this review. It is a genuine reflection of my experience with them so far.
