James was simply the best from his first visit to quote right up to completion. Communicated all tasks, on time and reasonable in cost. 110% would recommend to others. Have already booked him in for another renovation job in May & July. Thanks James. Update Sept 2023 2 more jobs completed for me. Moved door wall and built exterior shelter with stairs. Top job! Thank you again James. Reply: Thanks Sonia for the review & comments it has been an absolute pleasure working at this lady's place with Sonia and her son. Job was a great success and her son, even gave me a hand with the building work. Got the job done sooner then I thought because they gave me a hand with the cleaning up. Prompt payments. Great communication, and I even have ongoing work thanks Sonia.

James has recently completed remedial work on my home, and was great at prioritizing and fitting the job in to meet the tight deadline I had (selling house). He is great at communicating his timeframe and costs etc. He worked extra hours to get the job done on time, and did it to a great standard with passing the final council inspection with flying colours. Reply: Thanks Erin it was great to be able to help in the process of you wanting to sell your house, and helping out to make it look more presentable, and for you to get a better price for it. all the best with you a new house and future renovations thanks James

We’ve used James to erect monkey bars strong enough to handle the weight of teenagers and to repair a metal shed that had come to pieces in the wind. He did a great professional strong job and had great communication. Would recommend and will no doubt use him again. Reply: Thanks Hayley for the review and comments. Lovely family to do work for it's good to see the children are getting a use out of the jungle gym, and I'm sure the shed won't collapse anymore, great communication prompt payments thanks Hayley

James and his team did an awesome job on our retaining wall. Solid with a great draining system. Also sorted a draining solution for the garden area next to it. Would highly recommend Strong Foundation Build to everyone I know. The quality of the work and wall is high and will last. Reply: It was a pleasure to do this retaining wall for Sherein and her mother and the outcome of the retaining wall was great very inviting. Prompt payments great communication. Thanks Sherein and jane
