We have now been in our new T-built home six months and we absolutely love it. From our first meeting to the handover, we felt in safe hands. The team listened carefully and made appropriate suggestions to our already drafted house plan, which was greatly appreciated. The design stages, design selections and construction process was well executed. The supervision of the build by Adam was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. The workmanship of all the different trades has been of an exceptionally high standard. Thankyou T- Built Team!
Elissa Lindegreen
We had a totally seamless build with Adam and couldn’t recommend him enough. The entire team at Turnbull Built were exceptional to deal with throughout and the end product of our build spoke for itself. His communication, professionalism and creativity were outstanding, no question too silly and if we every wanted to add/change something, it was no problem. We were able to build our dream high spec custom house with him and if we ever went to do it again, we would go Straight back to Turnbull Built!
Tom Davies
We couldn’t be happier with the outcome of our build with Adam and the Turnbull team. From conception to handover, the communication, professionalism and respect for us as clients was exceptional.
Adam’s ability to structure our renovation and extension around our family living situation meant we did not have to move out and all trades and staff were a pleasure to have in and around our home. The project stayed on budget and was delivered on time. We would build with Adam and his team again in a heartbeat.
Sally Fox
Thank you Adam for our renovation. Your professionalism, attention to detail and communication were first class. We have been trying for a couple of years to find a builder who would remove a complex external rust feature that encased our ensuite and no-one wanted to touch it. You were prepared to investigate and research the best way to tackle this problem with a solution that would be both aesthetically pleasing and deal with the rust issue for good. The end result has exceeded our expectations and looks amazing on our home, like it was always meant to be there.

I am very happy with my Turnbull Built home. I met with five builders (including Turnbull Built) before signing a contract, so a lot of thought went into this. Adam has very good back office support who contributed some valuable design and selection ideas and all the tradespersons he engaged did a professional job. Since I moved in I have been approached by a number of people inquiring about who built the home. I have no hesitation in recommending Turnbul Built to any prospective home owner. Greg

We had a perfect building experience with Turnbull Built . I can’t recommend them highly enough. We did a knock down rebuild. From knock down to moving in was less than 12 months. We moved in Nov 2025. All the staff involved with the business were amazing. Anytime I sent a email or text it was responded to extremely promptly and there was always open communication. Every business or contractor involved with the build always told us how excellent Turnbull Built are and that we have an excellent builder . We are so happy with our beautiful house . Adam is a genuinely nice person and perfectionist this shows with his perfect houses he builds . The handover of the house was such an amazing day . It was so professional every thing you’d expect when investing in a new house. Don’t look anywhere else go with Adam and his team.

Turnbull Built recently completed an extension at our Millswood home. We couldn’t speak more highly of the team. Everything was done to an impeccably high standard – from the initial design and selections process through to the completion of the build. We liked and trusted Adam as soon as we met him and that soon extended to the whole team. From the get go Adam worked closely with us, helping us balance our vision with cost and practicality. Zac was fantastic to work with day to day – he has exceptional attention to detail and nothing was too much trouble. Belinda made the selections process easy and enjoyable, giving us confidence in our choices and advice when we needed it. Every single member of the team is lovely, professional, and knowledgeable, which made the entire process genuinely enjoyable (not something we thought we’d say about a renovation!). They always prioritised communication and bent over backwards to make the renovation as seamless as possible, all while minimising the impact on our day to day lives. We are so happy with our new home and would highly recommend Turnbull to anyone looking to build or extend.

Our house design is a sloping block in the Blackwood area, Adam and his team successfully achieved a brilliant, liveable home. The split level challenging build, retaining walls to both boundaries and our pool area at house level is amazing overlooking the tree scape. We were very happy with the attention to detail, having built five homes over the years (in Qld), Turnbull Built has maintain a very high standard. During the build process we were well informed and able to view all stages on site at anytime this added to our satisfaction of their commitment to build us a quality home. Thank you for all trades people that Adam and Zac engage on the build, working together for a common goal, spectacular quality home we love.
