For us it was a no-brainer going with Hayden and his team. We had gone out for quotes with other companies and Sentinel were the only ones who came up to site and understood the challenges of our unique location. Their quote was considerably more detailed and price competitive when we saw what the other companies were omitting in theirs.
We wanted bespoke architects and builders rather than something already on a plan. Being the second time we built, we knew what we were looking for and Hayden and his team could deliver that. We had the most fantastic builders and project manager, who had a great relationship with us directly and their craftsmanship was meticulous.
We find building our home with them was one of the best decisions we made. Everyone who visits us comments on the finishing and workmanship. That says a lot. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
Having Sentinel owned by a husband / wife team also felt like you got that extra bit of care as a family owned business. The quality and finish of the home is great. We knew we'd get a quality build from Sentinel and they didn't disappoint!
I can't speak more highly of the time, effort and professionalism Steph put in throughout the process, and we were stoked with the final result. We love our home and would definitely recommend building through Sentinel! Very happy and proud homeowners.
We made a few changes, and it just was not a problem. We didn’t have to compromise.
Let’s get together for a free, no-pressure meeting with one of our team, at your place or ours.
We can't wait to hear your ideas!
