Ross & Lisa

After falling in love with Agnes Water and buying a renovator's delight, we needed a builder to undertake a major renovation whilst we were living many hours away. Mike Murry Homes were highly recommended and after meeting Mike we knew it was going to be a perfect fit. Mike, Cheryl and their team ensured our renovation was seamless and stress free from start to finish. With only one onsite visit during the whole process, communication with Mike and Cheryl was fantastic. Nothing was ever too much trouble, his tradesmen were top notch and the attention to detail was very reassuring. We could not be happier with the quality of the finished renovation. If you are looking for honesty, integrity, and attention to detail then Mike Murry Homes are a must.

We love our house, thanks Mike Cheryl and the team.

 

Shane & Eliza

"Our build has been quite a journey. Not only was it our first time building, but it also happened during the pandemic, with us living interstate and at times one of us was working internationally. 

For us we really wanted a builder we could trust and rely on, this is exactly what we found with the team at Mike Murry Homes & we received nothing but support. 

As with any build there are always going to be changes along the way, things that we had missed or just don’t seem to work the way you thought it would on paper, part of the joys of being able to design our own home, I guess. Mike was always there to offer advice and solutions whilst still making sure our vision of what we wanted our home to look and feel like wasn’t lost along the way. Mike exceeded our expectations and delivered a quality build. 

We both believe that at the end of a build, if you can look back and agree that you would use your builder again in the future, you know you have had a good experience.

A big thank you to Mike, Cheryl, Matt, Rosco, Troy and Chad. Thank you for making our dream a reality. It is a quality home that we hope to enjoy for many years to come."

Mike, his team of builders and administration support are outstanding and the results speak for themselves.

 Drew & Karen

After visiting Agnes for many years we finally decided to make the move and build a house. We asked around town for builders in the area and Mike and Cheryl’s reputation and community spirit kept coming up and resonating with us. Our first meeting was very chilled and casual. He had some great ideas (we didn’t!) and we were happy to run with them. He has a good eye to design a house that fits in with the environment, with our living comfort at the forefront. Mike is so easy to consult with and every meeting was full of laughs. His attention to detail is amazing and we are very happy in our wonderful new home. We’re so happy to finally be living in this beautiful place that has always had a soft spot in our hearts. We highly recommend Mike Murry Homes!

 “During our recent renovations, Mike Murry certainly lived up to his reputation as an outstanding builder!  Nothing was too much trouble, no detail was overlooked, and Mike maintained his calm (and ours!) throughout the process.  We are both totally thrilled with the result, and cannot speak more highly of Mike and his team.  If you are looking for a quality build, by a quality builder, then Mike Murry is your man.”

 A big thank you to Mike Murry and his lovely wife Cheryl for making the process of building our home so seamless and enjoyable. Mike not only negotiated with regulatory bodies with great professionalism and humour but also undertook an amazingly meticulous approach to the entire project from start to finish.

Mike was always ready to listen to our ideas and offer suggestions when we got stuck.

His fine craftsmanship and aesthetic touches have made our home such a pleasure to live in.

 

 Allan & Linda Fletcher 

On moving to Agnes Water and purchasing a home that needed an addition, it was a great trepidation, we contacted Mike Murry Homes to enquire about the process. Our minds were immediately laid to rest on meeting Mike. He advised us on all aspects of the process. We had a 90 day settlement and continually changed our minds with the design. This was never too much trouble and Mike continued to reassure us. If we were asked 'would we do it again?' the answer would be an immediate YES! Mike Murry Homes gave us the opportunity to custom design our extension and we are thrilled with the end result. Mike's team were exceptional with nothing being too much trouble, taking pride in their craftsmanship. We highly recommend Mike Murry Homes to everyone.

 

Jane & Owen

'We had the pleasure of recently working with Mike and his support crew on a large extension to our house. Workmanship and communication were excellent; because of this all phases of construction on the whole went smoothly and sub-contractors were well co-ordinated. Mike developed a wonderful rapport with us, he listened and had an excellent understanding of what we wanted to achieve. When things got tricky he was outstanding at finding, explaining and implementing solutions with us.

We would highly recommend Mike and his team. They were reliable, ethical and provided a high level of service and I'd have to say we had fun. We are very pleased with the extension and thank Mike and his crew for a wonderful job'.

To Mike,

I just wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you so much for all your efforts in rebuilding my home after the Bundaberg floods. It is so good to be back home to a house that is so tasteful. I feel that you and the boys took extra effort and care to make everything just right for me and my girls.

Thank you for taking the extra steps and thank you to Paul and Bretto for being so easy to work with. Their workmanship and pride in their work is to be commended.

We love our home!!

We invited Mike Murry and his team to build our home, believing we had made a good choice. The actual process and experience exceeded our expectations. No effort was spared, we were "listened to" all the way, and the final product is a credit to Mike, Cheryl and all of their team.

We know we made the best choice.

Mike Murry has just completed our house in Agnes Water. Our block is in a quality location with surrounding homes to match, and we wanted a house that reflected this. The brief called for a contemporary but timeless, single level 3-4 bedroom open plan, low set, single level home for indoor/outdoor living. We also wanted the house to blend comfortably within the surrounds without being overly ostentatious.

As we are from Melbourne and were not able to supervise the project directly, we particularly wanted a builder whom we could trust and feel comfortable with. In a "long distance project" avoiding hassles was one of our prime concerns. Especially, we wanted to avoid the pitfalls so often heard from clients of large volume, project home builders. We achieved this working with Mike and Cheryl, where we established a one on one personal relationship.

Prior to selecting our builder we asked around and got a consistent reply that if Mike is available you should try to get him. It soon became obvious that Mike was respected and liked in the local community and this was reflected in the quality of tradesmen working for him. Mike's knowledge throughout the design process was invaluable and reassuring. Mike's wife Cheryl was also great with her suggestions for interior design, colour coordination, and the multitude of other selections we needed to make. Cheryl also went out of her way in helping us coordinate various other aspects of the project that we couldn't manage from a distant location. Some of these were above and beyond the call of duty and not really part of the builders brief- certainly this was invaluable from our point of view and was most appreciated.

Communication was very good and as such I only travelled up twice prior to completion of the project. On both occasions it was clear that my decision was vindicated.- Mike's pride in the work as project coordinator, his high standards, and attention to detail was terrific. As well, I felt that Mike and Cheryl were extremely accommodating and flexible with their time, and for this I was very grateful.

It was a joy to walk into the competed product. Everything was as expected and the house certainly has a lovely "feel" to it. I had no hesitation in "signing off", and am confident that should any maintenance issues arise in the future, Mike will be available to remedy these. The project was completed on time, within budget, and was as stress free as building can be, so that in the end we got what we wanted- a quality custom built home that will stand us in good stead for years to come and offer us a wonderful family living environment.

HIA AWARD WINNING HOME - 2006 WIDE BAY HOUSING AWARDS - SMALL LOT HOUSING OF THE YEAR

"Small Lot Housing of the Year'. Our first home was always going to be a very big step in our lives. Having a small business and a surf shop regularly dealing with major international surf companies, quality was always going to be important to myself and my family. I knew our house had to be built by a builder who had the same high standards. So off I went to ask people in the know of the building industry of Agnes Water and Wide Bay, “who would be your first choice of home builder”. Mike Murry's name kept coming up so. We met with Mike Murry to exchange our ideas and challenges of building on such a small block. Our first meeting was fantastic and Mike’s wife Cheryl was sensational with later input on our colours, interior and exterior and awesome feature ideas. All this combined with Mike’s enthusiasm and knowledge in the building industry just made it so much easier than I thought possible. Our house block is only small, 475 square meters, with a drop off exceeding almost half the block. It was always important to have a good quality home with the right finishes. We needed a builder who could think and perform ‘outside the square’. All of Mike’s suppliers and tradesmen are first class so we were never vulnerable to inferior workmanship. Our house was ready before time and just around our wedding, the perfect gift!

Teamed with Mike Murry's professional service was a willingness to make meaningful suggestions to build the home that best suited us. Winning the 'Small Lot Housing of the Year Award' was really the icing on the cake for us and only confirmed that we had made the very best choice. I am now looking forward to Mike fitting out my new surf shop next year."

 

Brian and Ellen Black

 "We contracted Mike Murry Homes to build our home twelve months ago. Mike helped design the plans for us, especially the kitchen and walk in pantry. He made minor changes as we progressed and it was no trouble for him to do so. We are very happy with our new home".

 

Peter and Sara Newbery

 "Our low-set three bedroom home was completed by Mike within three months as we were hoping. We found Mike ready to adapt to our ideas and his attention to detail amazing!

We are pleased with our new home."

 

Bob & Helen Hoban

 "Mike Murry of Mike Murry Homes Pty Ltd built our house at Waterfront Estate, Agnes Water in 2004. Mike was very professional from the time of quoting to the completion of the building. Mike's attention to detail, supervision of his trades people and quality control enabled the project to be completed on schedule. The craftsmanship throughout was to our total satisfaction. Mike's service is outstanding and for the others to aspire to".

"We have no hesitation in recommending Mike and his team to build any project."

 

Mick Thompson

 "Cheryl's assistance in decisions towards the design, tiles and colour schemes in the house was very helpful. Cheryl put aside her time and experience to offer suggestions and advise to help make the choices I have, which were much appreciated. The finished result is one that I am very pleased with."

 

Alex and Natalie Pollock

 "Mike Murry Homes were very professional during initial discussions, design phase, construction and on practical completion of our house in Woodrow Drive, Agnes Water. Being over 200 kilometres away from the building site we appreciated Mike and Cheryl's communication skills and discretion as the house was being built. With phone calls offering helpful ideas and emails containing photos of various stages of construction, Mike and Cheryl's personal touch exceeded our expections. We love the finish our new house and enjoyed our first time building experience."
