We live in Melbourne and bought land in Clifton Beach to build our dream retirement house. Our plans were drawn up, but we were concerned about building a home so far away. We had heard many stories about builders shutting down and leaving their clients stranded, as well as other builders who clearly could not be trusted. We did a lot of research and finally got down to a short list of four contractors in the Cairns area.

One of these was Unique Construction. When I called, Sharna answered straight away. We discussed our plans and expectations and I was impressed on how Sharna answered every question and explained the step-by-step process of building with Unique Constructions. After Sharna and Mark had looked over our design, they called me back and explained a few things were not technically correct, including the roof and several other factors which needed correction. I came away from those discussions confident we had found a builder who was open, approachable and available. Still, I sent our plans to three builders, including Unique Constructions, seeking quotations. Price was an important factor, but high quality of design and construction was essential. Out of three quotations, Unique Constructions were very competitive on both quality and price.

I travelled to Cairns to meet Sharna and soft-spoken Mark, who outlined all the details before we signed the contract and work started soon after. Throughout the building project, we found Mark to be very well organised and a great communicator. Unfortunately, heavy rain in January and February caused some delays, but Mark kept us completely up to date and, along with his army of tradespeople, still managed to finish our project on time. Even when I made some late changes, such as extending the pool size after the excavations had been done, Mark met our needs without any hesitation.

Now our dream home is complete and it is everything we wished for and I have no hesitation in recommending Unique Constructions to anyone who is planning to build. If anyone would like to see our house, it is in Sudbury Close, Clifton Beach, please feel free to contact me on my mobile and I would be happy to show you through.

My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of building with Unique Constructions. We already had our own set of plans and after our initial consultation with Mark and his wife Sharna we knew straight away we had chosen the perfect builder for our dream home in Cairns. Mark made the whole experience so pleasurable. We were living interstate at the time, visiting every four or five weeks. Mark and Sharna kept us fully informed throughout its progress and every visit we were so excited to see our dream home come to life. Mark is one very talented builder. We put our faith in him to deliver and we certainly got the result! We are still in awe of living in our little piece of paradise.

We really love living in our “Paradise”, it’s a great layout and we love the high ceilings. The home costs a lot less to run than our last place, where we had to have the aircons running most of the time. Here, we just open the stacker doors and let the breeze in. One thing we noticed were the things that came in the standard price, we really only had to purchase curtains because everything else was provided. A lot of display homes we looked at had a heap of features that all cost extra. Working directly with the builder made a big difference, we always knew what was going on and Mark had some really good ideas that saved us time and money. We are happy to recommend Unique Constructions.

Unique Constructions were engaged by myself in late December 2012 to completely renovate my recently purchased three bedroom unit overlooking the Cairns Esplanade. The unit required a complete renovation including bathrooms, full painting, kitchen renovation, security screens, major electrical work, pest inspection and purchase of designer furniture throughout the entire unit. Nothing was too much trouble and Unique Constructions expertly coordinated all aspects of the renovations to a very high degree of workmanship. The service was very quick and efficient and they were very competitive in obtaining the best quotation and what I really appreciated followed up on the quality of the workmanship rejecting work that was not to their high standard of delivery. I would recommend this company to anyone considering a renovation, I really appreciated their warm but business-like manner and the fact that they coordinated every aspect of the renovation enabling my wife and myself for me to walk into a beautiful home before Christmas.

After completing a build with Unique Constructions we wouldn’t hesitate to seek their services again. Mark and Sharna were always on call or on site and were more than happy to work with our customised requirements as the build progressed.

We had a rough plan of what type of house we were looking to build.  We did try others builders, but I found they were not open to my ideas or suggestions,  they wanted to build their designs and were not interested in what we wanted.  After meeting Mark, I felt completely confident that he was interested in what we wanted, he was open to our ideas and along the way suggested improvements. Mark was always available and happy to discuss our project, the service we received was excellent.  Unique Constructions provided us with a fantastic building experience, they were very timely and the quality of work excellent. So much so, we entered the house in the HIA Awards. I would highly recommend Unique Constructions to others, and have done.

Jasmine and I would like to thank Mark Price and Sharna Price from Unique Constructions for building our dream home. We can honestly give them the biggest wrap for being professional, on time, well organised and masters of the industry. The workmanship was amazing and nothing was a problem for this amazing team. We searched high and low for a builder and we could not make a decision for 12 months. We then met Mark and Sharna and after looking at their previous house builds and designs, we knew we had found the right people. I highly recommend this company and I am happy for anyone wanting to build a house to contact me for further information regarding Unique Constructions. We wish them all the best and will definitely use them again if we build again in the future.

I am writing you this letter to let you know how pleased we are with our new home and the experiences we had working with you. The house is wonderful, and its construction and finishing went very smoothly.  Mark is very focused on customer satisfaction. He was extremely responsive to our concerns and changes while the house was being built, and  worked diligently with us to get the house completed on time. He continued to resolve the few issues we have left after we moved in.  Working with your tradesmen was also a very pleasurable experience. Having built other homes previously, we expected the highest quality and customer service. This is exactly what we received. We look forward to many years of happiness in our new home. I don’t know if we’ll ever build another home, but if we do, you can be sure we will consider Unique Constructions first.
