What Our Clients Say
EXCELLENT Based on 7 reviews Posted on Aaron SmithTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had the guys come in on Wednesday morning to start repairing a rotten bedroom floor. By Friday lunchtime they had finished the job and cleaned up. Ready for carpet to be laid. They did a great job and I was kept up to date with text messages as to how things were goingPosted on Ian JamesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Proud Homes provides outstanding end to end customer service. Our project was completed on time and on budget with the site thoroughly cleaned and all debris removed. Chris is very attentive and gives clear, relevant and honest advice. He is highly knowledgeable of building codes, regulations and what is compliant and practical, plus, importantly for me, which materials and construction methods are the most cost effective and reliable. As a qualified builder he also has a great eye for contemporary design and colour selection. I am very happy to recommend Chris and Proud Homes. I would certainly use them again.Posted on Bill JacksonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have used Chris for a number of maintainance jobs around my house, and he is exceptional at what he does!

The quality and attention to detail is great and they have always been very honest with their quotes. Can recommend. Very professional and helpful.Posted on Edmund TyminskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. "I can’t recommend Chris from Proud Homes highly enough. I had an accident that left a gate and fence damaged, and Chris stepped in to fix it quickly, professionally, and without any fuss. He’s got a great skill set for all sorts of interior and exterior jobs, and he’s the kind of bloke you’re glad to have in your contacts — reliable, honest, and just easy to work with. If you need someone who knows what they’re doing and will treat you right, Chris is your guy."Posted on Mark WiggTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've used Chris and his team for a couple of small jobs around home, and asked him to look after family and friends as well. Happy to recommend him. Fair price and skilled crew.Posted on Petros MargaritisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Chris from Proud Homes is the best in Melbourne. I used him for a few different jobs including my elderly mum and dad’s home for a front fence/gate and side fence. He has been there at all times from quoting to dealing with the whole job. His clear communication and process is easy and took all the stress away from the job. Even did the little jobs around the house I don’t have time for, like replaced a small section of my gutter on my roof. I have also recommended him to family and friends and they have been super happy with his service and pricing!
