We used CJR to build a two-story extension to our house. We found Clayton and his team to be fantastic throughout the process. The build went very smoothly, the team were easy to work with and the extension was delivered to a high quality, on time and for the agreed price. They were also great with final rectifications which we appreciated. We would definitely recommend.

Overall we found Clayton, Hayley good to deal with. The greater CJR team performed well, his carpenters were always polite on-site, had great work ethics and reasonably clean at the end of each day : ) . We had the work delivered on time, and kept at the agreed price point. Clayton was accommodating to the minor variables that popped up along the journey, particularly during early COVID on-set. I rate him !, the due diligence and good communication is refreshing.

Highly recommend CJR Construction. Top quality workmanship, great communication and responsive to our needs. The boys were polite, on time and always left the job site clean. Clayton fairly priced the job and met our tight timeframe after another builder fell through (and around Christmas too!). Definitely a builder you can trust. I wouldnt think twice about hiring the firm again!

Everyone associated with CJR Construction is professional, and we are very happy with their work ethic. Clayton always keeps you informed what is happening and when the different workmen are coming and to do what job. Would and have recommended CJR Construction to friends.

Thank you for the exceptional workmanship shown in the construction of my deck. Communication was open and I was always informed about progress and daily work completion goals. The work area was maintained and tidy and a thorough clean up undertaken at the end of the job. Appreciated the extra recommendations regarding undertaking the painting so that the finish enhances the excellent build. Highly professional construction, competitive pricing and friendly prompt service. Am thrilled with the result and would highly recommend Clayton for anyone requiring carpentry work to be undertaken. Many thanks
