I considered how we actually lived our lives before including rooms and spaces. I knew we would rarely use a formal lounge or dining room, that we liked to entertain informally and have the guests included in the food preparation.
I knew we liked to feel the outdoor and indoor spaces as blended areas, that our teenage daughters would probably be with me for some time, and so the house had to accommodate young adults.
In terms of the builder, we wanted people who were not churning out stock standard designs, a company that would see our house as a one off, just for us, and could be flexible and try new ideas, while also offering the advice that comes with experience. With Starr Constructions we achieved this.
We were totally satisfied with Starr Constructions, from quoting to completion. Having built with other companies in the past it was a pleasant change to get regular communication and not be heavily punished for making alterations along the way.
I have been dealing with Starr Constructions since the year 2000. Nino Sanzari, Jon Vithoulka and the team at Starr are true professionals. I found their expertise in the building industry is really second to none.
Their mission was to have us move in to our new home before Christmas. They promised and delivered. The final result that we were handed over with, was beyond our expectations. Projects of this magnitude occasionally do have minor setbacks however; the team at Starr tackled each and every issue with a true sense of urgency; a quality that is lacking in most companies today.
I can strongly recommend Starr Constructions as builders with true integrity and a team that is on your side. Building our dream home with Starr has been a truly pleasant experience!
Moving into a beach estate for the first time, meant we were looking for a builder who could capture our lifestyle as well as practicality and contemporary living.
Starr Constructions delivered all of the above and more. We selected Starr Constructions because of the instant passion and professionalism this company offered which immediately captured our interest.
Both Nino and Jon respectively helped us achieve our dream home. They enhanced what was already a beautiful design by advising and guiding us in all aspects of the building journey.
We are proud our home made front cover of Best Homes this year. We absolutely love living in our new home. Thankyou Starr Constructions for your commitment and dedication in building us a quality home.
We wanted plenty of natural light and warmth from the sun, but did not want the interiors to fade from sun exposure, or our home to overheat in the summer.
A creative use of glazing and eaves ensured their needs were met by Starr Constructions. The first level, which contains four bedrooms and the master suite, features a mezzanine that looks out over the pool. The ground floor of this home is designed with clean lines and wide, open spaces. Outdoor areas provide all year-round alfresco dining.
We appreciate that Starr Constructions helped us realise our dream home. We feel that they really bring new meaning to the words – bring the outside living in doors!
Nino and Jon were easy to work with from the beginning. Nino spent a great deal of time at the planning stage even though we had not chosen a builder. This included accompanying us to meetings with the architect in order to get the design right.
Once construction started, ohn and Nino were always available to discuss progress in order for us to save costs or get a better finished product. It gave us peace of mind knowing that if we had any questions/issues they would be answered and acted on quickly. That service continues to this day. In the end we got what was promised without any hidden costs. We found Starr Constructions to be honest, hardworking and friendly. The advice offered throughout the construction also saved us some money.
We would like to thank Starr Constructions for our new home.
Starr Constructions built our home at Pagewood in 2006. On the basis of our experience over that time we are more than happy to recommend Starr Constructions.
Nino Sanzari and John Vithoulka were a pleasure to work with from the outset. Even before we signed the contract Nino provided friendly, helpful advice on the plans and on our construction alternatives. He patiently waited while we sought competitive quotes and was always responsive to our calls.
During construction, Nino, and his team were always accessible and did their best to keep us up to date on progress. Nino continued to provide helpful and thoughtful advice that helped make our house a better place to live in. He was clearly interested in delivering a high quality product rather than in maximising his profit. His dealings were always straight and honest with us.
Following completion, Nino and John have provided ongoing support and advice – responding to a number of minor issues with courtesy and professionalism.
Based on our experience we can strongly recommend that you consider Starr Constructions.
We were very happy with the work conducted by Starr Constrictions. The Starr team were great not only during the building process, but even after completion! We had looked at other companies but decided to go with Starr after seeing the quality of work on other homes they constructed and hearing of the extensive industry experience they had. Nino is great with ideas but at the same time respects your own. Jon was great on site overseeing each step and assisting with our queries. Both men made themselves available on our request, despite having a project manager. The office staff were also lovely and attentative.
Two years on we love our home and we have continued our contact with Starr. We will continue to recommend Starr constructions.
Thank you Nino for always being patient and understanding during the selection process when we couldn’t make a decision. Thank you Jon for whenever we thought there was a problem you were already on top of it.
We were impressed by your commitment to a high standard of finish that was further attested to during the course of construction when other trades commented as to the high standard of finish.
We have no hesitation in recommending Starr Constructions to anyone wanting quality building work completed.
If you are in for a luxury home built as per your desire and plan, these are the guys who will do it for you. Bring your own plans or just come with an idea they will convert it to reality.
They have won quite a few industry awards too.
Highly recommend them.
Quality, professional
Great company to work with
