Our journey with Nuvo started in late 2018, after a lengthy mission of shopping around trying to find a builder who can handle a draft of such detail and intricacy of a classic french house, whilst also being of fair cost. Nuvo appealed to us as they had agreed to take the challenge with quite a competitive price. Bill Andrews the sale manager was very helpful, patient and supportive through out the usual pre construction phase. Matt Moule the project manager, who as I have gotten to know is a very enthusiastic guy who again took the challenge and has paid very good attention to every minute

Just completed our build with Nuvo homes and couldn't be happier with the result. Communication was excellent throughout the building process, Nuvo were accommodating and helpful - which really took some of the stress out of building. We had a tricky block and character code to contend with and Nuvo were more than willing to adapt and work within our requirements - I would definitely recommend.

Hi all, I am delighted to say that we got our keys to our dream home today. When we first started the build process, just like everyone, we visited all the display homes and spoke to the so called "major builders" such as Metricon, Plantation, GJ Gardener etc and only found the process to be too difficult and/or their plans didn't fit our block. But we did start the design process with one of the big ones, only to find the cost was blown out as we wanted to customize to suit our needs. So after few months, we gave up with them and started looking for a boutique, custom design builders. That's when

We built a custom-design home with Nuvo Homes, completing it in January this year. As with any build, let alone a custom one, it can be an emotional time full of quick and sometimes difficult decisions, unpredictables/challenges and compromises on both parts. Nuvo Homes responsiveness, integrity and transparent communication maintained our confidence in their expertise in challenging builds and reaffirmed our decision to build with them. We felt they approached all matters with a win-win focus. Our build was unfortunately delayed due to a trade backlog and our handover defects took a while

I built my home with NUVO Homes recently. I would like to thank Cameron, Matt and their site trades team for their assistance and professionalism with the construction of our first home. The main reason I decided to go with NUVO was access to the entire team including the owner of the group. The journey with Tim and his team was memorable. The communication through out the build process was very good. We solved any issues together to progress the build well before the contract completion date. Although the final chapter is not quite yet complete, were really looking forward to being in our
