Our design their contractors. We could not be happier with them. We have had absolutely no problems, great service and their contractors have been fabulous. Tim the toolman is right in respect of the franchise thing. The owners of Hotondo in our area have been building here for over 30 years under their own name and have now (or in the last few years, i'm not sure of when) taken on the Hotondo name. We would recommend them to anyone thinking of building in Western Victoria. Re: Hotondo 17Nov 13, 2010 8:31 pm We are about to start building with hotondo and so far they have been excellent. Our builder is fantastic - I think you just need to research the Hotondo builder in your area and see what their reputation is like there. Here in Hervey Bay they have a great name and we can't wait for our build to start! Re: Hotondo 18Nov 14, 2010 1:27 pm I’m still doing work for Hotondo in Nowra. I’m very comfortable with the people I am working with!

We have been talking to "Turnkey" builders for almost 8 months now and even got a quote from AVJennings (which was 70k over our budget clearly our job was too hard for them inc so many mistakes in the quote it wasent funny! biggest waste of our time and $750!!!)... By far Hotondo have been the most helpful and so far honest people we have come across. They dont know something they tell you they dont know and they find out for you. Verbal discussion is followed up by confirmation emails. Prices given and inclusions helpful. We want outside people to do work they hare happy with that. We have a dificult block flat as a tac but in a 1 in 100yr flood zone... they have been more than helpful in accomidating our needs. Right now I would recomend them to anyone! Hopefully it stays that way At the end of the day all companies have their good and bad stories... most you read on the internet are bad becaue people are frustrated. I look forward to writing awesome reviews for Hotondo!! First home builder... Building with HOTONDO in Wollongong... Land settlement 13th May 2010 Any advice is appreciated! Good Luck with your homes! Re: Hotondo 20Jun 15, 2011 1:19 am Hi Guys, Thanks for all your sharing on Hotondo Homes. I am a first time builder and obviously nervous. I've looked online at many 'project' home builders and the only design which appealed to me was one of Hotondo's designs - the Byron 237. The reason I have looked for this kind of builder is I assume they will be cheaper than finding an architect, designing something I like then finding a builder to build it. I've read a lot of good things about Hotondo, and a few bad things. I tend to find more people are willing to share bad reviews over good ones, with so many good comments here versus bad, I tend to think Hotondo is quite a good option for us. Being franchised I do believe it still comes down to the actual builder. I'm wanting to build in Sans Souci, Sydney, can anyone recommend a Hotondo builder for the area? Also, anyone built a Byron 237? Any ideas of cost? Many thanks! |
