Christine and I want to express our thanks and gratitude to the team that makes up Ascension Homes for the excellent outcome for our new house project in Whitianga. The project was fun and enjoyable for us and we appreciated your friendly helpful service and manner.
I was very pleased the job was completed both within the agreed price and within the time schedule agreed. I think the time spent prior to commencement, with the plan and specifications was time well spent. It has been a pleasure to work with company that is efficient and was able to achieve this excellent outcome. Thank you.
The guidance with choosing the exterior “look” was appreciated. The outcome was excellent for us, as we wanted a crisp, light and durable good looking finish. The interior of course was completely yours and identical in standard, colour and finish to your show home. This matches our taste and needs perfectly. Thank you.
The outside work you completed, being the brick piers, concrete work and rock work was top class and suits the property perfectly. We really appreciated your flexibility in getting this last part of the job just right. Thank you .
.
Christine & I would have no hesitation in recommending your company.
Yours faithfully

"Thanks for making a fantastic job on our spec home in Parsot Place. We were highly impressed with the quality of workmanship that Allan and his team put into the house. The Real Estate agents who sold the house had many positive comments from their open homes on its workmanship and attention to detail that is testamony to Ascension Homes high standards. Costs were well contolled, timeframes ran like clockwork and communication was excellent.
I would recommend anyone to get their project taken care of by Allan and Lee... they are true professionals."

It is with pleasure that I am able to furnish this reference for Ascension Homes Ltd.
Ascension Homes Ltd undertook the building of our beach house situated at Cooks Beach Coromandel in 2007, building to the plans we had designed and had drawn up.
We cannot fault the service we got from them from first meeting to end result, it was of the highest standards. Even when we had a glitch in the plans which was our fault, and posed to delay the building consent application, we asked Alan for his help and he had it fixed within the week with absolutely no stress involved for us. On random visits to the building site we were greeted by the Ascension team who were only too happy to answer any questions.
Our dwelling was finished to every last detail and was better than we had ever imagined.
Alan and Lee of Ascension Homes Ltd are fantastic people and made the whole experience a pleasurable one.
Yours sincerely

Re Te Kauwhata House
I am writing to express my very sincere appreciation for having built the lovely home at Te Kauwhata for me.
What I am particularly grateful for is the very efficient and speedy manner in which you completed the house, notwithstanding the rain problems you encountered from time to time.
I have built other houses of late and the buildings seem to go on for ever and ever with one problem after another. Here I must say, what an absolute pleasure to have a house completed without any problems or come backs. The two very minor issues caused by the electrical contractor and landscaper were sorted out in a matter of days.
I just want you to know that I am extremely grateful and satisfied with the excellent workmanship and ethical manner in which this whole construction was completed.
My very best wishes to both Lee and yourself.
Warm regards

"As a layman, I had no idea about Allan's building abilities, but I am happy to relate some experiences, which are as follows:
- The next-door neighbour, whose home had just been completed, kept commenting about how thorough our builders were compared to his.
- Some independent tradesmen I engaged separately commented on the quality of the work.
- My home handyman friend, try as he might, could find no flaws.
- Since the house was built nothing has sagged, fallen off or leaked, so until this reference I have not had to see Allan. Considering what's happened to other new houses round about, this is some achievement on Allan's part.
Based on the above experiences, if I build again, I would certainly use Allan"
Dear Allan & Lee,
"Thank you so much for all the work you did on building our new home. Planning and building a house can be stressful, and it takes so much time and patience, but you made it so much easier on us! We absolutely love it!!
When we were considering who would construct our home we complied a list of what we required from our builder. After all, building a home is a serious investment, and relationships can get strained and volatile. Therefore we needed to be able to work with someone who wouldn't get over excited or stress us out. They also needed to be a thorough professional, have a great track record, and obviously be cost competitive.
We were pleased with your use of quality construction materials, your use of current technology, and your up front pricing format. Your willingness to work with is during the whole building process was extraordinary. Utmost respect was given to our ideas, and problems were handled in a timely fashion.
We count ourselves lucky to have worked with you. We tell everyone and anyone how great you treated us from beginning to end. You got us off on the right foot by working and reworking and reworking the figures to help us squeeze everything we really wanted.
Many times people like to complain about bad service, bad products or bad workmanship, but they fail to let companies / people know when they are treated well. Varsha and I believe in doing both when it is warranted. We cannot tell you enough about how satisfied we are with you and your staff, not only in the office but the quality house built by your crew and subcontractors.
Honesty and integrity are vital to long term success and you have managed to mix this in with your other ethics of plain hard work and accountability. Once again, many thanks for building us our dream home."
Yours truly
Hadley Family
Dear Allan,

With the repair work you not only have repaired and rebuilt our home, but also our confidence and peace of mind.
You also relieved us from great concern and anxiety."
