What do our clients say?
The best way to sing the praises of Emphasis Homes is to answer the question: “If you were to do this again would you use them?”
The answer is an unequivocal YES!
From the first meeting we felt the team were approachable and would go out of their way to make things work! Despite Covid and lockdowns the house was built and we can’t be happier!
Their workmanship is top notch and we feel blessed to have a house that is so well built. The guidance from the team and gentle reminders to make important decisions made the process exciting and seamless.
We have built a great relationship with them and can’t recommend them highly enough!
From concept to completion our new home build with Emphasis was absolutely effortless.
Every single member of the team is friendly, approachable, accommodating and understanding but most importantly efficient and professional.
We loved the process of building our own home and the team at Emphasis allowed us all the creativity and flexibility required to complete our vision. Our new home is flawless and even better than we could have imagined.
Thanks to Emphasis, the process was so enjoyable we can’t wait to build another one!
From the very beginning, we found Emphasis very professional but at the same time, friendly.
They were very patient and ready to listen to all of our ideas and willing to go that extra mile to make things happen. Their communication is excellent and they were always ready to answer all of our questions.
Emphasis managed & co-ordinated our design process with their architect which was followed by the estimation process. All of this was quite hassle free, transparent and super smooth.
As a building company, they don’t just read but also analyse the architect’s drawings with a great deal of effort. This ensures they understand the intent and the vision that we had poured into designing our house. The master builder/project manager appointed for our house is very dedicated to his trade, friendly and easy to communicate with.
Kate and I can safely conclude by saying that Emphasis build homes through their heart and not just their mind.
