Testimonials

"Thank you for making our dream at Port Levy come true, you did a fantastic job managing the project and kept the build within budget and ahead of time, we are absolutely delighted and would recommend Trent Building Solutions to everyone."

Ali & Mike - Hillside in Port Levy (Christchurch)

"Richard and his team at Trent Building Solutions were great to work with throughout the building process. Not only did they keep us informed as to time frames for the build and then stick to them, but they often went the extra mile and took the time to come up with some creative and cost effective solutions that now add the WOW! factor to our home. Their experienced team know what works and what doesn't, and it was great to be able to call on their experience in delivering to us a fantastic new family home. Thank you Trent Building Solutions!"

Anthony Inwood - Large family home on lifestyle block

"When we looked for a builder for our new home we placed our trust in personal recommendations because we wanted someone who had a good track record and had earned respect for quality. Quality of build, quality of sub contractors and quality of client/builder relationship. Richard and his team at Trent Building Solutions delivered on these points and many more.

We had exacting expectations which our foreman, Brad, took to enthusiastically and proactively resulting in a build that succeeded beyond our expectations.

Regular site meetings as well as honest and clear communications resulted in no surprises and an environment that was a pleasure to be part of.

Now we get to "pass it forward" and recommend Richard and his team to you to build your home. Enjoy the journey – we certainly look forward to taking it again soon."

Simon - Diamond Harbour

"We had a fantastic experience working with Trent Builders. Their team was professional, friendly, and courteous throughout the entire project. We especially appreciated how they consistently maintained a clean and tidy workspace at the end of each day.

One aspect that stood out was the supportive and educational approach one of the builders took with an apprentice. His patience and willingness to guide, while encouraging the apprentice to think through solutions, was truly impressive and speaks volumes about the company’s culture.

We would not hesitate to engage Trent Builders again for future projects and highly recommend them to others seeking quality workmanship and a professional team."

Christine - New Brighton

"We engaged this team to carry out some building work on our home, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. From the outset, they helped us scope the job clearly and gave us great advice on what actually needed to be done. Their communication throughout the project was absolutely spot on.

They coordinated the trades seamlessly around our access needs, and left the site in immaculate condition. We’re absolutely wrapped with how it all turned out.

Really practical, down-to-earth guys who were a pleasure to deal with. The workmanship exceeded our expectations. Thoroughly recommend. Thank you again!"

Hannah - St Albans
