  Our family had a very positive experience with Parry, Tom + the Pichelmann Custom Building team, they did an incredible partial knockdown and rebuild to our home. Parry + his team were incredibly helpful from the get go, helping us realise our dream working within a realistic budget, + collaboratively with the help of our architects Kristina + Ben - "two form architecture + design", + structural engineer Ross - TTW, + Petri - CBS Residential Certifier, ensuring we worked from the most current plans + spreadsheets + ticked off each stage as the build progressed. Tom + his team of tradies were excellent from start to completion of the rebuild. So much so that Pichelmann Custom Building were 2019 Building Excellence Award Winners at the MBA awards for our home in the category Renovation/Extension $450,000 - $1million as did the painter Simon from Simco for our Giraffe wall paper in our entrance. Our communication was clear, friendly + respectful throughout the process. I would highly recommend them if they are available to help realise your dream home or investment property.

  Parry Pichelmann was recommended to my husband Ian Clarke and I by a colleague, after Pichelmann Custom building delighted them with a major renovation to their home. She was impressed with his professionalism, project management skills, and his ability and willingness to solve unexpected problems. We needed that kind of company as we needed to have a large area under our home dug out and foundations replaced and supported throughout, but had been unsuccessful finding any builder that gave us confidence they could do it. The job was non-trivial and out of the ordinary, but Parry took time to understand our non-standard needs. From the start, Parry inspired us with his professionalism, his guidance and advice, and his open cost-plus-management-service approach, all of which gave us confidence to proceed with Pichelmann Custom Building. When, as he had warned us we might, we did strike rock, he came up with options including a contractor with specialist machinery to grind the rock out without harming our home. From the start and throughout the project, Parry was open with costs and risks, which he updated with any change we made. The invoices the company supplied each billing period reassured us with their level of detail and accuracy. From our experience, Parry is a thorough professional, who is genuinely interested in what his clients want and need, is highly ethical, fair, flexible and innovative. He is an excellent project manager, with access to very high-quality resources which he is able to deploy in a timely manner. We would not hesitate to recommend Pichelmann Custom Building and its approach for any job.

  My husband and I selected Parry as our builder for his engaging personality and the thoroughness of his planning. During the construction we were looking forward to our weekly meetings with him to discuss the progress of the project, during which he presented us with many improvements to our initial plan that we were happy to agree with. Every step was clearly explained, completed and documented. His team was brilliant and finished the process on time. Parry has stayed one of our best friends ever since. Our dream house also allowed Pichelmann Custom Building to win the Master Builders and Boral Awards for Residential Green Living Project. Later on, we asked Parry and his team to do some renovations and additions to our place with the same satisfying results.

  We had a limited budget to refurbish an older Canberra home on the North side. Parry, Eugene and Tom were expert in providing alternative solutions and high quality finishes. Parry was always available to discuss the stages of works and the outcomes and costs we could expect. We had a great journey and we could not thank them or recommend them highly enough for a great job and a happy home.

  Parry and his team are a highly trustworthy and professional outfit (unlike many of the cowboys in the industry!) who will go above and beyond to deliver an excellent result. Our build broke the mould in a number of aspects and Parry was always willing to work with us to find clever and creative solutions. Throughout the process Parry encouraged us to be involved which meant that we ‘tweaked’ the designs and plans on several occasions which was never a problem. Parry is very transparent with his billing arrangements which gave us great confidence. A number of times he dipped into his own pocket when things didn’t go as he anticipated rather than lumping us with additional costs (I’m sure some other builders would have tried this). Our home won two MBA and one HIA awards which speaks to the quality of the build. We can’t speak highly enough about Parry’s excellent work.

  We’ve had an excellent experience building our new home with Parry, Eugene and the broader Pichelmann crew. Thank you! Their genuine desire to go above and beyond to meet/exceed our expectations is completely ingrained in the company’s culture. The professionalism, dependability and commitment of the team is second-to-none; something we’ve rarely experienced with a tradesperson before, let alone an entire building company. Nothing has ever been too hard - they have always been proactive in finding options and solutions. We can highly recommend the Pichelmann team for your building, renovation or maintenance project.
