We love our first home and are grateful for the team at ZB for working with our budget and making it such an easy process. We ended up with a lovely new first home, the process was easy and there was always a friendly face from the first meeting to the move in day. Everyone was always there to help which was great, we loved the communication with staff throughout the build! The Co-Construct software was also a huge benefit from my point of view. Being busy it was great to keep track of the build and also be reminded when things needed to be completed at our end. We would definitely recommend ZB Homes, especially to busy individuals who are after a stress free enjoyable process!

For us, there was no reason to not choose ZB in the end! Being local and having offices handy was our initial reason for enquiring, but when we compared our building needs between them and another building company ZB's friendly service and agreement to our design features won us over. We experienced a quick and timely build, good progress communication, reminders via Co-construct app and post-build follow-up. The building process was nowhere near as scary as we had anticipated. We would turn around and build with them again easily!

Once the red-tape and paperwork was complete and the site prepared, dealing with one project manager was excellent! Using co-construct and having a clear building timeline was helpful and inclusive. Nothing seemed too difficult, each call to Hayden was answered with ease throughout the build and after moving in. We even had visitors looking through the house asking questions looking to build themselves! We would definitely recommend building with ZB as throughout the process the whole team kept us involved in discussing each step.

The process was a joy to behold from the first meeting right through until now! We appreciated the ongoing help, no question was ever seen as ‘stupid’ and the staff were candid in their advice. Loved the system where variation were costed out and not scheduled until approval by us. Staff could not be more helpful and the process was so smooth. We had discussions with other people who had major problems and stuff ups with other builders but we had none of these! We were smiling just as hard at the finish of the built as when we made our first approach. Trust the small company compared to the franchises. We certainly recommend ZB Homes and speak fondly of them to all who will listen!

My husband and I have currently built two homes with ZB Homes over the past three years. ZB Homes works closely with their clients and offer a top quality service. The workmanship of ZB Homes is exceptional - they deliver a high standard quality finish with all of their homes be it an entry level first home or a beautiful designer home. ZB Homes goes beyond the general call of duty for their clients.

My partner Romy and I have nothing but praise for the way in which the entire home-building task was undertaken, and the professionalism and warm personal involvement by all those in the ZB Homes company throughout the process. For us, the whole process, from the original meeting with Zane to discuss the purchase of the section to the visit from Angie and Rochelle with flowers and goodie-basket to formally hand over keys and ownership papers for our new home, could not have been more pleasant. We are most grateful to them all.

I just wanted to pass on my thanks to all of you at ZB. You have all been truly amazing to deal with, and my little house has turned out the most beautiful & perfect little thing. I truly couldn’t be happier, and if I had to do it all over again – it would be exactly the same. The finishing is lovely, and I really appreciate you all bending over backwards in that last few weeks to get us in there. I would definitely recommend ZB homes to anyone I get chatting to who might be looking to build a new home. From start to finish its been fantastic – I am truly so pleased. Here’s to a fabulous future & lots of love, laughs & happiness in our new little home Thank you all so much.

We would like to thank ZB Homes and all who were involved in the build of our new home. Everyone was so helpful from the initial stage through to completion. The challenge of a less than level section required a lot of planning but once the build got underway it was completed very quickly and came in on time and budget. The management of the process from start to finish was great. We could not have asked for a more experienced and friendly team. They are committed to getting the best result for their clients. We are very happy with the experience we have had with ZB Homes and have no hesitation in recommending them to others.
