Thanks!
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.
John & Lesley Whyte
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."
Wayne (Grom) and Lindy Melleck
"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".
Brian and Ellen Black
"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."
Peter and Sara Newberry.
"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."
Bob & Helen Hoban.
"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."
Mick Thompson
"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."
