Quintessential Building Termite Repairs

We were totally thrilled with Colin and team and the way they went about our termite rectification problems ! The way they organized and left totally clean our house at the end of EACH day of work is a real credit to their ethics and honesty. The way they focused on what needed doing and even making sure they got everything rectified that needed fixing, leaving no stone unturned and even doing a couple of little repairs that was not part of their brief without charging us extra, we just cannot speak highly enough of them ! thankyou guys

Colin and his team replaced an internal wall in our home which had been damaged severely by termites. They worked very efficiently and quickly, taking great care to control dust from spreading and always cleaned up thoroughly at the end of every day. The replacement timberwork was far more robust than the original, just one indication of Colin and his team’s commitment to excellence. Colin and his team were always very courteous and respectful, they always turned up on time and coordinated seamlessly with plasterer and painter, who also did high quality work. We are extremely happy with the work they have done and we recommend them most highly.

We were delighted to find Colin Forbutt who was referred to us by a building inspector and pest inspector when old termite damage was found in a house we wished to buy. We could not have had a better builder. Colin knew exactly what the issues were and how to fix them. He gave us the utmost confidence and that confidence was rewarded handsomely. Colin removed the plaster board in several rooms of the house and showed us the damage then explained what he planned to o. He replaced the damaged beams with termite-resistant beams and then replaced and repainted the plaster board. You would never know there had been a problem. But what is more, the repairs were certified by an engineer and we were given the appropriate certifications. Colin is a very experienced and skilled builder. Besides that, he has excellent communication skills and is a very nice person. My wife and I recommend him most heartily.

Col and his team were fantastic! We discovered termite damage and booked Col several months in advance,as we had had tenants in and couldn’t commence straight away. Col stayed in touch and commenced work exactly when he said he would. His work was of such high quality. He provided photos throughout and had his work certified by an engineer, so you are guaranteed of a thorough job. We found even more damage as we commenced work and Col was incredibly reassuring, informing us that his team could rectify it. He stayed on the job till all was complete. His time management and organisation around that was wonderful. Col assisted us in preparing the house for sale. His knowledge in this area is unsurpassed. Col and his team were highly skilled, efficient and very personable. Lovely to have them in the house! We would highly recommend Col and were incredibly lucky that he was recommended to us. Very happy clients.

When Colin came to quote he was very thorough in examining the termite damage to our wall, to the point that I felt extreme confidence in his ability and knowledge. The damage was extensive over a full wall and large window. Colin's team of builders were polite, respectful and dedicated to the work required. The resulting workmanship on the termite repair and renovation was excellent. The paint applied was an exact colour match to the existing walls. We are delighted with the result and thoroughly recommend Colin and his team. Thank you.

Col and his team did a great job! They paid attention to detail and made sure the job was done right. The work was very fairly priced and I’m very happy with the end result. Col made sure to explain everything and keep in contact throughout each step. I am extremely happy with how professional and friendly they were. I would recommend to anyone!

Extensive, old termite damage was discovered on a building inspection after my home went under a contract of sale. Colin, highly recommended to me by my Pest Inspector, came to quote and organised repairs almost immediately to facilitate the sale. In addition, Colin’s always friendly, calm demeanour and continual reassurance to myself and the buyer alike that all was fixable was exactly what we both needed in order to cope with what was a very stressful situation. Colin kept both myself and the buyer fully informed throughout the entire process. His team were friendly, professional , hard working and very skilled. The workmanship from the entire team was excellent and was a major factor in the sale going through. I cannot recommend Colin and teamhighly enough.

Colin and his team provided excellent service, never made us feel like we were naive and always communicated every single thing to us to ease our minds. Work was carried out flawlessly with no issues from him. We had pretty bad termite damage and he came highly recommended - we definitely can't recommend him enough! If we ever intend to do more work to our home, we will definitely get Colin and his team back for the job.Thank you very much for all your hard work - it made us love our new home that much more.

We had some old termite damage in the ceiling of our house. Colin was engaged to investigate the extent of damage and provide a quote to rectify anything found. We were really impressed with the thoroughness of the inspection and his professionalism. His quote seemed reasonable for the required work. Two internal walls needed re-building, and two trusses needed strengthening. Colin and his team did an incredible job. They were quick but thorough. They turned up when they said they would, and they always left the site clean. We were particularly impressed with the quality of their work. We were kept informed of progress, and after completion, there was a followup visit to confirm we were happy with the result. We have no hesitation recommending Quintessential Building to anyone that wants a job done once and done right.
