Read moreWe are almost 1 month down being in our new house and we are very happy! We recently finished building with distinctive homes in the Adelaide hills with a custom plan single storey. I was extremely cautious with them from the get go as there reviews weren’t great and I didn’t know anyone who had build with them perviously so I questioned absolutely everything that didn’t seem right as there was no trust there yet. Once our slab went down and it got handed over to our supervisor Peter Hahn it was smooth sailing. Awesome communication and always called me back if I left a message. Our slab went down 20/3/25 and we had keys almost exactly 7 months later. 7 months for a 310m2 home was quick in my books! (Flooring done after hand over) For a volume builder I’m happy enough with the end result! Cheers peter

Read moreThis is our 2nd Build with Distinctive Homes and we couldn’t be more happy with the end product. The first build was 8 years ago close to the beach and this one was our dream family home in the Hills. We found the whole process great … from the first stages of sitting with the team and bringing our ideas to life on our plans. Selections at each organisation was easy and well mapped out step by step. Our site supervisor was great at taking our calls and keeping us in the loop on each step. Our slab went down in Feb and we moved in early October. We had council delays, but worked through them. Final product - AMAZING!! We couldn’t be happier in our brand new home. I would definitely recommend Distinctive Homes to build your home. There will always be hiccups along the way when you’re building a home, but when you have a team like Distinctive Homes behind you … navigating these challenges is made so much easier!

Read moreUpdated review after handover Hunaina was our consultant ( recommended by someone to us) and I highly recommend her. She listens to all your ideas and responds promptly and also comes up with apt designs for your needs. I am very happy with the plan that we were able to work out together. Peter Hahn was our site supervisor. It was an absolute pleasure to work along with Peter. He has updated us with each process, provided valuable guidance and is very approachable. He has abundance knowledge in what he is doing and a very pleasant personality. We also conducted external building inspections as we read some bad reviews about Distinctive homes online. The inspector commented in most of the inspections that the building quality is above the current standards we see around. Overall we are very happy in building with Distinctive homes. I have to mention about an issue we faced as well.We had some delays in council approval. It was neither our fault not Distinctive homes. In the contract a price increase fee is mentioned if there are delays in commencing building works. Since our process was getting delayed , we kept on asking about the fee. More that one officials from the office re-assured that it wont be charged since the delay is not purposeful. But as soon as the council approved the plan ,we had to pay a negotiated price increase fee . We would like to thank Distinctive homes especially Hunaina and Peter in helping us build our beautiful home.
