"Very glad to have picked Brent and his team "

"Very glad to have picked Brent and his team to construct our new home.
From day one Brent kept us in the loop with regard to every aspect of the build, all with an easy going manner and common sense approach. He and his team worked with a punctuality and attention to detail to produce a result of outstanding quality which is rare to see these days. Best of all the project was completed on time and under the allocated budget.

Thank you Brent, I would not hesitate to work with Tuatara in the future as I know I will get the results I expect for my hard earned money."

Renovation
River Drive South Ballina

"I couldn't be happier with the renovation that Tuatara Construction completed for us. Loving our location, a renovation was the best outcome. Giving us the extra bedroom, ensuite and the second living space we desperately needed. We engaged Brent early in the design stage, his experience helped us formulate practical ideas and good design solutions on how best to use the space we had.  We are very happy with the finished product and would have no hesitation in recommending Tuatara Construction to anyone.
