The Ideal Group

Ben and his team have just insulated and rendered our 1950s monocrete house in O'Connor. It's made a massive difference to the temperature, because the thermal mass is protected from the exterior cold. The flexible render should also prevent the house expanding and contracting in Summer....goodbye to cracked paint when the expansion joints shift!We can highly recommend Ben and the Ideal Group. We came to them through a neighbour -- also a monocrete insulation -- and found them just as promised. Ben assessed the house, advised us extensively, and provided an accurate quote so that we could budget and organise around our other big project of replacing the windows. Ben's team work well together and are all helpful and friendly -- happy to just get on and apply their expertise, but also to explain things if you want to understand what's happening. Particular thanks are due to Antonio, one of the foremen, who reworked and reworked the insulation to deal with some complex corners, just as if it was his own house.We have no experience of building or renovation, but thanks to Ben and the team, the process was much less stressful than expected. Ben knows his stuff, and is highly experienced with Canberra's extreme climate. The job started exactly when he said it would and finished on time. He kept us up-to-date with progress, and was unfazed and proactive in dealing with any issues. He also took care of the logistics, recommending a plumber who liaised direct with Ben's team about the hot water unit, drainpipes etc. so that we didn't have to keep track of the different stages. Ben's team all tease him about his obsession with getting the job done right, but it's obvious that they respect Ben as an employer and a professional, and you can't get a better recommendation than that.For renovators who have no idea what they're doing and who need an expert they can trust, the Ideal Group really are who you need!With very many thanks to Ben, Antonio, Jimmy, Manoj and their teams, All the best, Bethany and AJ

We are thrilled with the cladding job that Ben and his team have completed for us and which has made such a difference to our home’s energy efficiency - we are warm in winter now! The quality of the job and finish is outstanding and we have really valued the strong attention to detail in all aspects of the work. Ben and the team have been excellent to deal with - professional, efficient, responsive and dependable. He delivered what he said he would with no fuss. Can recommend unhesitatingly.

Can't recommend these guys enough. I gave them one photo to work with and they nailed my vision! Just goes to show when you trust the professionals you hire and give them full creative control you always get the perfect result. Extremely professional and got the job done in the tight time frame I gave them. Will def used The Ideal Group again!

The walls around my swimming pool area were in a pretty bad shape with render peeling off and rust from the beads breaking through to the surface. Ben and his team fixed it all up for me. They were extremely professional with meticulous attention to details. They protected all the traffic areas and cleaned up afterwards. I couldn't be happier. You can see that they have great pride in their job, which is rightly justified.

The Ideal Group repaired a large section of my hail damaged rendered wall. They were very good communicators, friendly, respectful and punctual. The quality of their work was very professional. I would engage Ideal Group again.

Ben and the Ideal team were great to deal with! Communication was open , honest and transparent throughout the whole process and always returned my calls in a timely manner. Every step of each stage was explained before, during and after commencement. I would highly recommend the Ideal team as they really care about the final product of their work and they are passionate in what they do!

The Ideal Group have gone above and beyond to deliver a high quality finish for our home. From the initial planning stage through to the project itself it was a pleasure working with Ben and his team. We were particularly grateful for the after care commitment, including touch-ups and professional cleaning, which has made all the difference. Each member of the team was friendly, professional and had a high attention to detail and commitment to quality. No hesitation recommending The Ideal Group to anyone wanting to bring their home into the 21st Century.

I have dealt with Ben and the Ideal group team for a number of years. It’s refreshing to deal with such a great team of people who truly treat each project as their own and strive for excellence. Advice, quality workmanship and service are of the highest level. Thank you
