Rob Freeman – Birchgrove

Chris at Burmah leads a very professional outfit that achieved for us a quality family home that has vastly exceeded our expectations. Foreman Dan was also exemplary in attending to the different stakeholders on site including council, surveyors, certifiers, neighbours and of course their selected trades.

The project was challenging in that the front of the site is a 150 year old heritage listed timber weatherboard cottage with very limited side access. Burmah were very organised in handling the demolition of the former rear addition and also completing the excavation of a new pool and cellar. Dan did a great job organising formwork, concrete pours and structural bricks/steel but the Burmah carpentry talent came to the fore in the last half of the project. The team built a fantastic American Oak routed timber ceiling in the upstairs new addition which is a clear feature of the house. The team also restored the heritage cottage to its former glory and the attention to detail and restoration of period features is second to none.

I actually enjoyed the build process much more than the planning process which I don’t think many people can say. If you want a builder that is organised, diligent and will give you a cracking product pick Burmah.
