Realising the potential of your home and the life you want to live in it.

ShawBuild’s expertise and advice in working with heritage properties was invaluable in turning our simple, 1920’s cottage into an inviting family home. Neil and his team designed a floorplan that seamlessly blended the original build with the new extension, creating a layout that perfectly suited modern-day living. ShawBuild’s trades were skilled and respectful, something we very much appreciated since we were living on site while the building works were undertaken.

We are extremely happy with the renovation to our property in Burradoo. It came in on budget and within the expected timelines. I would not hesitate to recommend Neil who proved to be both reliable and trustworthy. He is hands-on, always on-site to ensure things went as planned, and often went beyond expectations.

After a long period living overseas, we returned to the Southern Highlands to renovate a humble cottage in a garden with a lot of potential. It became quickly obvious that Neil was the right fit for our project. From the start, we connected with Neil. He was friendly, collaborative, and genuine and took the time to understand the feeling we wanted to create for our home. He gave us honest advice throughout and shared his opinions rather than telling us what to do.

On many occasions, we consulted with Neil about other projects around our property and he was invariably gracious and helpful. Neil’s expertise, particularly with traditional finishes was obvious and he gave us solid advice that we followed. Neil’s knowledge, experience and attention to detail has resulted in an absolutely beautiful space for our family – we love it. It was a pleasure to have Neil and his team working on our home.

Neil designed our beautiful addition. There was no architectural plan, no engineering plan, just our ideas about what we wanted. The finished product is everything we imagined and more, and we can’t thank him enough for turning our dream into a reality.

Neil and his team worked closely with us turning an ugly duckling into one of the most beautiful properties on the street. A project like this is all about the detail at every level, from manufacturing bespoke cornices and joinery to the rejuvenation of century’s old fireplaces and everything in between. Neil knew the ‘how to’ about it all and his team had the skills to make it happen.

Wow. The pictures tell the story. Rundown, plastic weatherboard-clad dump, transformed into what is now a landmark in town. It takes a builder of great expertise and vision to be able to transform the property in the way ShawBuild has. Thank you!
