Rating for 1st class construction

Removed old deck and replaced with new Kwila – a great and professional job. Also identified some structural work that needed to be done, clearly explained the need for and scope of further work and provided cost estimates. Haven’t had a better building job done than this before. Highly recommended.

Phil removed an old chimney from my roof and patched the exterior with new colour matched iron, and internal with gib. He was great with comms, provided a competetive quote, and I was pleasantly surprised when the job came in significantly cheaper after it was done quicker than expected. I'm very happy with the work and will be getting in contact in the future for help with some other jobs around the house. Reply: Thank you for the great review Clare. It was a pleasure working for you and hopefully we can be of service in the future.

Phil replaced a wall (framing and cladding) that had suffered water damage. He was quick, hard working, thorough, thoughtful (encountered no unanticipated surprises) and provided a competitive and accurate estimate. He was very patient and gave great advice about options for weather proofing the wall, and the house more generally, and great to work with. Would recommend to anyone for general house work and repairs. Reply: Thank you so much for the great review John. It's been a pleasure working for you guys and hopefully we can be of assistance again in the future.

I had 1st Class Construction build a new fence and gates, and carry out a number of repairs to rotten or damaged boards around my weatherboard house. I was particularly impressed with the speed and craftsmanship, as well as their ability and willingness to incorporate my ideas and adapt when I tweaked the designs. Top-notch for communication and responsiveness.

Philipp replaced some soffits which had come out of their grooves and added better fixings. He arranged the site inspection promptly and inspected the situation carefully, including testing other soffits and giving overall advice. He explained our options very clearly and gave us a good price. He communicated really well throughout the job and was friendly and very easy to deal with. The completed work is very neat and solid. The whole process was really easy and we're very satisfied with the result. We'd be happy to use 1st Class Construction again. Reply: Thank you so much for the great review. We're pleased that you're happy with our work and hope we can be of assistance in the future.

Would recommend First Class construction to anyone looking for a builder in Wellington. Phil delivers high quality, professional craftsmanship. I found the commitment to quality to be exceptional . We've had a few jobs done around the house, from replacing metal supports, re-cladding, and shelf building. Each time the communication and build process was straightforward and executed in a timely manner. Easy 5 stars.
