Testimonials

‘I would build with Absolute Homes again in a heartbeat!’

“I’m one of Absolute Homes’ clients, having owned a house that Chris and his team built. I like perfection and a point of difference with anything I do. In my house I found both. Everyone loved the layout, the design, and the high quality and thoughtful finish.

“After moving in, Chris maintained contact, which I found a sign of his desire to please the customer and back up his great product. I would build with Absolute Homes again in a heartbeat! It was one of those great experiences in life. AND I am, as I said, hard to please.”

‘A builder with expertise, enthusiasm and honesty’

“Chris Cawthray’s expertise and enthusiasm helped ensure my building project was completed – and completed to a high standard. Chris is extremely personable, and takes an honest approach to manage client expectations. I look forward to working with him again.”

‘The standard of workmanship is excellent’

"We built our new home with Absolute Homes in 2023, and we couldn’t be happier about the process and the outcome. At our first meeting with them when we discussed our needs and wish-lists, they were so helpful and responsive. They showed us how one of their standard designs could be modified to easily include what we wanted. It looked great on paper and proved to be even better in reality. We were kept informed at every stage of the project, and staff were always happy to answer any questions or concerns. The standard of workmanship is excellent. Absolute Homes are the bomb, and we absolutely love our home."
