“Skookom delivered our home with the utmost professionalism and to a level of quality that is hard to find. They engaged with trades and contractors with excellent programming and project management, while keeping us informed throughout the process, from design through to occupancy. Our choices were clear from the outset and with a great understanding of our intent, they worked to exceed our expectations.”

“We have had a brilliant experience building with Skookom. From the first visit through to the hand over we felt like the team was as invested in the project success as we were. We moved into our new home within 18 months of our first enquiry. They were prompt, communicated clearly and kept us informed at every stage. There’s lots of things to recommend Skookom but for us two things stand out: sustainability and integrity. We continue to delight in finding little details that show the quality of the build and the diligence of the team.”

“We feel so lucky to have engaged Skookom as our builder. No build is stress-free, especially during COVID, with constantly rising pricing and unreliable supply chains but Skookon just made it work. Ian, Elise, the Skookom staff and the subcontractors they engaged were always a pleasure to work with, and nothing was too much trouble. Skookom got to know who we were and they quickly understood what we wanted to build and how we wanted to live in it. When a problem came along, the solutions they provided always had this in mind, often making the build even better. We are thrilled with the result.”

“Complex build carried out very expertly. Nothing was too much. Post build issues sorted expeditiously. Good solutions to problems and a delight to deal with. Would absolutely recommend to others.”

“We couldn’t be more impressed and pleased with the service and outcome Skookom provided. They supported us in achieving a design that was build-able for our sloping site and helped us get the important sustainability elements into our build within our budget. We always hear people say that the construction phase of building a house is highly stressful. That was not our experience with Skookom - they were attentive, reliable, honest and completed our house in a highly efficient timeframe. The house they built for us is such a high quality and has exceeded our expectations. We couldn’t recommend them more highly.”

“We chose Skookom to build our home because of their established reputation for quality and attention to detail.
They did not disappoint.
Ours was a challenging site that threw up its share of surprises. Ian's communication throughout the process was exceptional and hugely reassuring.
Foreman Jib and his team went above and beyond to deliver a project that not only matched our expectations, but exceeded them. They carefully selected trades that shared their ethos and commitment to creating something truly special.
Our new house has a warmth and character that comes in no small part from the care that was shown in its construction.
It was a pleasure to work with professionals who cared about the end result as much as we did.
Thank you Ian, Elise, Jib, and your entire crew for doing such a great job.”

“Skookom helped us navigate our renovation journey and ultimately achieve our vision. The process was smooth and organised. Despite an initially overwhelming number of decisions which needed to be made we enjoyed the process and always felt very supported. Ian and Elise worked closely with us from concept design to finished product. The timeline was clear and accurate from the beginning and we felt that two way communication occurred easily and regularly throughout the project. Our onsite team worked to a very high standard. The work site atmosphere was warm and friendly but efficient. We couldn’t be happier with the end results and would recommend the Skookom team without hesitation.”

“My family and I just moved back into our home, superbly renovated by the Skookom Team. My home was built in the 1920's and needed an extra bedroom and a bit of a revamp, with the end results far exceeding my expectations. The whole process was seamless - with no problems, only solutions!
The Skookom secret, I think, is in the quality of their team members. From initial discussions, costings and project management from Nick; quality tradie workmanship from Kai, Tasman, Thom, Tom & Zac; to Sea - foreman extraordinaire, always happy to explain and to keep me in the loop. All of this overseen by Ian and Elise to a very high standard. The whole team was always approachable and realistic with a fine attention to detail, quality and the client's need. The workmanship and professionalism was outstanding.
I would highly recommend Skookom for a professional and quality build. They are a great team who really care about your build.”
