- Andrew PorterFirstly full disclosure. I’ve been a mate of Rik’s for near on 40 years and consider him a very good friend. Regardless of that, my wife and I have just moved in to a new townhouse the team have so meticulously and professionally built for us. The entire process was amazing, with very good communication and involvement throughout the entire build period. We couldn’t be happier with the result, and with our dealings with Rik, Kezza, Maddie, Soph, Muzz and everyone else involved. Very happy clients.5/5 stars
