Searching for the right builder can be a daunting experience. Luckily, we were recommended to contact Simon from Formview Building.
From our initial introduction meeting to our frequent follow-up calls since moving in, Simon has provided a service second to none.
We presented to Simon a plan with some challenging aspects, in particular a sloping block which we intended to work with rather than flatten.
A bespoke design created by Karl Spargo had the concept work with the natural block elevations and contours to minimise retaining and earthworks cost. This was exactly what my wife and I were after having viewed numerous project built homes and walking away uninspired.
We found Simon to be very practical in his approach allowing us to work closely with him to evolve and adjust aspects of the design throughout the building process. Fortunately for us, Simon always brought to the table a positive attitude when it came to design change rather than an unwillingness to assist.
Having the access to speak to Simon as often as required reassured us of site progress and his intention to have the build completed within a practical yet achievable time frame.
It has been a pleasure not only dealing with Simon but also his team of key sub-contractors which in general, showed a willingness to ensure everything was done right.
We have now had some time to live and enjoy our new house and are very pleased with the outcome.
Our impressions of Formview Building were high and I have no reservations to recommend Simon and his team to anyone looking for an honest, down to earth builder to construct their next project.
I look forward to maintaining contact and friendship with Simon in the hope that he is still in the game to build my next home some time in the future.
