Scott has managed our knock-down & rebuild house in Mawson - ACT. initially he was referred to us through one of my friends and we are totally happy with the project. Especially we liked his transparency, responsiveness and quality of work. Without hesitation I can recommend him (I have already done so to few of my friends) to any one who is looking in to building a house in Canberra region.

Scott renovated our house at the south coast and we absolutely love the result! Abode were professional, responsive and managed the project in a timely manner. Scott is very particular about making sure everything is perfect, and when some of the joinery didn't fit perfectly he insisted that the joiners remake the piece to ensure it looked and fit perfectly. He has an eye for detail and made sure that every little thing was done exactly the way we wanted. It is difficult to find people in the building industry that are reliable and honest, so it was an absolute pleasure working with Scott and Abode

The abode team have now helped my family with 4 or 5 different projects. These range from Commercial fit outs to new builds to a complete Full renovation of a house which had quite a few issues. At all times the Abode team kept us informed and took all the stress and worry away from us. Would never think about using anyone else.
