Testimonials

After an initial lengthy, costly and stressful design phase of our new home, we met Jesse Bateman of 2B Building. From the outset, and retrospectively through the whole project, we felt very comfortable and secure placing our trust in Jesse to achieve our goals.

Throughout our build, Jesse's willingness and enthusiasm never faltered and his foresight enabled us to improve some areas of our design whilst keeping the costs affordable. He was always friendly and accessible and his trouble-shooting skills, supported by his wide knowledge of all aspects of a building project, were truly outstanding.

Our whole experience with 2B Building has been a pleasure from start to finish. We believe we could not have had a better result than what we have achieved through his company. Our house is amazing, we love it and it is a testament to Jesse's keen eye, excellent building skills and great project management.

Park Beach Owners

We couldn’t have been happier with the build of our first home by 2B Building company. While building our first home was a bit intimidating at first, it was quickly made a lot easier through Jesse’s constant support and professional advice when tough decisions were required.

Jesse’s exceptional communication and interpersonal skills combined with his ability to manage multiple trades and meet deadlines really impressed us. Jesse is an effective team leader who utilises exceptional negotiation skills to achieve results, streamlines the decision making process, as well as solves complex problems for the best interest of everyone involved. There were even times when his advice saved us substantial cost which we were very grateful for. Jesse is a quality captain who organises an efficient action plan to ensure his team meets their goals.

The finished product that Jesse and his team have built for us certainly exceeded our expectations. We have now settled into our new home and we are constantly reminding ourselves how lucky we are to raise our children in such a wonderful space. Not only were we happy with the craftsmanship of 2B Building but also the joinery and other trades that Jesse provided were consistent with the same level of quality workmanship. We hope to one day add another room to our initial build and we definitely intend to engage Jesse and the 2B Building team in any further construction.

Fern Tree House Owners

My daughter and I entered into a contract with 2B Building to construct an architect designed unit in the foothills of Mt. Wellington.

Being our first experience of contracting with a builder for a new construction we were a little nervous particularly in regard to aspects of budget and timeframe.

Jesse and his team commenced the job as soon as all necessary approvals were received. Despite some very challenging weather conditions the work was completed both on time and on budget. Jesse was particularly impressive with his coordination of sub-contractors and suppliers.

No time was lost at any stage of the building process. Consequently the construction proceeded to completion much more smoothly than we were expecting.

We appreciated Jesse's dedicated approach and his ability to maintain good humour in cold, wet and sometimes very windy conditions.

We are very pleased with the quality of the work and would not hesitate to recommend 2B Building to anyone seeking a builder able to deliver promptly and professionally.

Fern Tree Accommodation Unit Owners

We recently completed a renovation and extension of a 1950s house in Bellerive with 2B building. We absolutely stoked with the outcome.

Choosing a builder was an easy decision once we sat down with Jesse. We felt that he was professional, informative and knowledgeable, this remained the same throughout the 6 month build.

From the moment the build started until completion Jesse kept us up to date with everything. His organisational and co-ordination skills were exceptional meaning little if no delays. We felt that Jesse and his team were fully invested in the project and treated it as if it were their own.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Jesse and the 2B building team and look forward to one day working with them again.

Bellerive Owners

We were introduced to 2B Building and Jesse Bateman through the recommendation of our architect. What really cemented the relationship was Jesse's openness and frankness in our early discussions and the fact that he only took on one major project at a time. This gave us reassurance that our project would have his full attention.

As the project progressed we were very impressed by the way in which Jesse took on board all the little changes we made. Not only that, but he also came up with suggestions not to make his life easier but suggestions that would greatly improve the liveability of the house.

The build was completed on time and on budget and was an exciting and enjoyable time for us thanks to Jesse's quiet and assuming manner, helpful advice, and professional competence.

2B Building have built an amazing house for us, that all our family and friends will enjoy for years.

Connellys Marsh Owners

Our dream home was architecturally designed to suit our lifestyle and we specifically chose 2B Building with all confidence and trust that the build would not sacrifice in quality or detail, whilst sticking to our ideal budget.

The team at 2B guided us through the whole build and were great to give advice and support when needed with any hurdle we crossed along the way. We recognise the fine details in the house and all the extra effort Jesse and his team placed in to produce our new home.

More than a builder

I first engaged 2B building around 10 years ago for a relatively small project but was really impressed with their enthusiasm, ability to keep me in the loop and completing the job on budget and time.

When I decided to embark upon a major renovation I had no hesitation in contacting 2B building. Having Jesse as your builder eases stress considerably as not only is he a great builder he also is a fantastic project manager, arranging other tradies to perform various, electrical, plumbing, roofing and plastering to name a few. I feel Jesse's biggest strength aside from being a fantastic builder with a can do attitude is his ability to communicate, be there on time and constantly update you not just on the work he is performing but other trades as well.

Jesse has now been involved in 5 major renovation projects including, extending the lounge room, building a rumpus, gym, extending the balcony and enclosing the carport into a garage. All projects were performed to such a high degree that it is impossible to tell what the original house is and which bits were added. This is the litmus test of what constitutes a good builder as far as I'm concerned.

I highly recommend Jesse and 2B Building.

Tolman's Hill Owner

In 2011, my partner and I embarked on the process of significantly extending our residence.

Building a home can be a scary time for anyone, but in our experience it was choosing a builder that was the hardest of all.

We approached the market and gave several builders the opportunity to provide quotes and advice in relation to the project, and we chose for Jesse to undertake our project.

Jesse did not provide the cheapest quote, but he did provide a reasonable and competitive quote which thoroughly considered our requirements. It was a quote that we considered to be honest, and real, which could actually achieve our goal with a minimised risk of financial overruns.

Jesse approached my family and our build genuinely, and with respect. He listened to what we wanted and he took us seriously. His workmanship and attention to detail was incredible, and Jesse ensured that every element of our building was completed to perfection.

There was no situation too hard for Jesse, and he kept us involved and briefed on the entire build process. Jesse is a decent and respectful man, who we were able to rely on and trust.

We have since engaged Jesse for two further projects- the construction of a 5 bay garage, and the construction of a significant deck. Both which were completed to the same standard, and with the same honest and ethical conduct of our initial build.

We love our home, and we are very pleased with 2B's management and execution of the required construction.

I highly recommend Jesse, 2B Building, for the construction and management of building projects, and I will certainly engage him for all of our future building and construction needs, and without hesitation.

I would be happy to provide any further information about our experience, or answer any specific questions that you may have.

Carlton Beach Extension Owners

Jesse and his capable team of assistants and subcontractors took our one-off architects drawings and translated them into the comfortable and modern extension that we had wished for. We were particularly pleased with his client focus and the efficient way in which any problems with the finer details of the fit out were resolved. All this at a remote site with difficult access.

Based on our experience we have no hesitation in recommending the services of 2B Building.

Tessellated Pavement Owners

Our experience with 2B Building from the initial meeting with Jesse Bateman to discuss our visions and needs, to the signing of the contract and commencement of works, right through to completion of the job, at all times friendly communication, professionalism and commitment to the job was very much appreciated within our renovation project.

As for the workmanship, this could not be faulted and Jesse's eye for detail and skills within the building industry were second to none, in our opinion. Both he and his skilled subbies created the perfect result to our renovation dream and has left us with very happy memories and would recommend 2B Building to anyone who is seeking a switched on building contractor and a stress free building job.

Primrose Sands Owners

It is with great pleasure that we recommend Jesse Bateman and his company 2B Building.

We engaged 2B Building to complete the first stage of our extensive renovation following a recommendation of his company from our architect. The renovation to date included; new kitchen, bathroom, complete floor plan reconfiguration and the addition of a deck.

After previously building our own home as an owner builder, our experience with Jesse was one of great professionalism. The entire project was well managed and trouble free as Jesse was able to accurately accommodate all aspects of the renovation within budget, which resulted in the project finishing on time and avoiding any unexpected costs.

During the renovation it soon became apparent that Jesse takes great pride in his work as it felt like he was renovating our home as if it were his own. This was demonstrated not only by the finishes and the final result of the project but in the way Jesse communicated with us and his contractors. We were kept informed every step of the way as to the progress. Jesse was very approachable and more than happy to discuss aspects of the plan whilst providing his advice/opinion on alternative design and products to use.

We are very happy with the final result. We look forward to engaging his service for the second stage of our renovation and have already recommended him to family and friends.

Overall, we recommend 2B Building without reservation.
