I would like to thank Terry Bowden and his team for a fantastic job on our renovation. Our renovation was totally stress free. It was completed on time and within budget. Terry and his team worked five days a week on the renovation until it was completed. The team was punctual, professional and also approachable. The quality of their workmanship was of a very high standard. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Terry Bowden for any building projects. We were very impressed and would certainly use Terry again for any future renovations.

Terry Bowden and his team recently undertook an extensive renovation for me. Terry was at all times professional and helpful, making practical suggestions that assisted me to get a “value for money” outcome. I am very pleased with the result of his efforts.

We are delighted to provide this reference for Terry and Justin Bowden for the renovation work they are currently conducting on our property at Woolloongabba. Given our lack of knowledge of the building trade, one of our greatest fears was becoming another “horror” renovation story. Thanks to Terry and Justin, our renovation experience has been the opposite. They have demonstrated an outstanding blend of professionalism, customer service and building practicality. Terry is (seemingly) always contactable – we are not sure when he sleeps. As Terry will no doubt tell you, there is an element of the unknown with any renovation. We are involved in the major decisions on the project and Terry takes particular care to explain any issues as they evolve and to recommend the best solutions. Thus far, every recommendation we have followed has proven to be the right one. Importantly, he is also willing to listen to what we want and has been quite amenable to following our wishes when we have an aspect of the project
that we want done in a particular way. Terry has provided us a reasonable period of time to consider changes and, to date, no significant budget overrun. In short, we entered the project with trepidation. We needn’t have. Terry communicates well, keeps us informed and generally works with us to provide an outcome that is sensible and practical.

Terry and his team recently completed renovations on our 1930’s Queenslander in Annerley. They restructured the kitchen and built a large deck out the back. All the work was completed to a beautiful quality finish. When we were getting the initial quotes, we were amazed at how many builders just didn’t seem to care, either not returning calls or being totally offhand about the job. Terry immediately made the opposite impression. He was interested in the job, talking knowledgably about building styles and some options. Terry suggested we go over to his place, which was pretty similar, and have a look at what we could do with the same sort of space. This sort of family vibe set the scene for the entire job. Terry, Justin and the team were always understanding of the impact of the work on the family and tried to minimise it without ever losing the quality approach. In fact, the whole job was done to a great quality standard, with value added all over the place with nice finishing touches on top of a smooth and
efficient job. They are true craftsmen who take pride in what they do very well. So, the job was done in a timely manner, it was done in an efficient manner and it was done on budget, even though the original quote was extremely competitive. I have absolutely not a moment’s hesitation in giving Terry and his guys an A1 recommendation to anyone; in fact, I already have! Thanks Terry!
