"On behalf of both Michele and myself we want to genuinely thank you for the work you have done and the professionalism that every single member of your staff displayed though the duration of this project. I'd specifically like to commend you for your achievements in the following areas:

• Budget - I am absolutely delighted that we were able to complete the project within 2% of the original contract price.
• Quality - The quality of workmanship, attention to detail and overall standard of the finishes your tradesman delivered exceeded both the specifications and our expectations in every area.
• Timeliness - your project management skills meant that we avoided any significant rain delays however the extra effort your staff devoted to deliver an "on-time" completion was greatly appreciated.
• Teamwork - this is potentially your strongest attribute. Your ability to work through issues with our architect and patiently "educate" my wife and I on many of the technical aspects of the construction process was superb.

Please do not hesitate to use us, or our home, as a reference for your company at any time. We would be more than happy to share our experience with any potential client that may be interested."

"The people that did the work on our house were, without exception, approachable, friendly and communicative. The quality of the work they undertook was excellent. We are extremely happy with the finished product and, in several areas, our expectations were exceeded.

When we wanted to make changes Jock's input was always pragmatic and creative.

Costs forecasts and quotes were always highly detailed and accurate and we came in very close to all budget expectations that were set.

Jock's perspective was that, when the job was complete, we should have as good a personal relationship as we had at the start. There is no doubt that we were successful in this objective and I am happy to provide Jock and his team an exemplary reference in all aspects of the project.

We are very satisfied customers."

"J Wallace Constructions has been known to this practice since 1996.

Since that time J. Wallace Constructions has built a substantial new residence in Queenscliff with a contract value of $1,212,000.

The project involved difficult site access, heritage controls, specialist nominated sub-contractors and complex staging requirements. All of these issues were managed with a high degree of professionalism through the process. A high level of organisational skill was also demonstrated during the construction of the project.

It is without hesitation that I provide this reference for J Wallace Constructions and I welcome any further enquiry by contacting me on the phone numbers above."

"I am pleased to be able to give Mr Jock Wallace a reference. Mr Wallace and his company performed creditably. The project was completed on time and the workmanship conformed to our expected high standard. Throughout Mr Wallace was understanding and cooperative."

"During the course of the work I was particularly pleased with the progress made and with the attention given to achieving a high standard of finish. The site was maintained din a very tidy state and care was exercised in all aspects of the work.

The persons employed on the works, including the subcontractors, were without exception highly skilled. The foreman in particular was dedicated to producing a top quality result. A very strong point of the contractor was communication. At all times the principal, Jock Wallace, was available for discussion about the works, was attentive to any matters raised and invariably followed through on commitments given. I have not met a builder with better communication skills (and follow-through) than Jock Wallace."

The project was completed on time and within budget, to my entire satisfaction. I am pleased to be included as a satisfied client of J Wallace Constructions.

"We have been very impressed by the way the construction work progressed in such a timely manner and the quality and dedication of your building team. We will remember the quality of their work, their many suggestions to improve the job and their cheerfulness as a team. You are to be congratulated also on your choices of sub-contractors, all of whom added to the overall quality of the job."

"The building took an efficient 19 weeks during which my son and I remained living in the house. All the tradesmen employed on the site worked to a very high standard and were always helpful in fine-tuning details. The entire building period went very smoothly and according to plan, and to the hugest standards of workmanship. Both Jock and the foreman were in all respects outstanding in their managing of the project. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jock Wallace Constructions to anyone."
