“Thanks Phil, It all looks really good, you and your team have done a great job and can be justifiably proud of the project.”

– Russ Hounslow – SA Manager Gilbarco Australia

“Active Building Developments succeeded far beyond my expectations in what was a difficult and unusual challenge. Philip's work seems to me to be an extension of his character, exemplified by a quiet, personal commitment to produce a high quality result, taking personal pride in his work being of exceptional standard.”

“We engaged Phil and his team to build our new Endota Spa in Norwood. We gave him four weeks to fitout which was extremely tight. Phil and his team went over and above to meet this timeframe – starting at 3am to avoid noise disruption and working weekends to get it over the line. Phil’s easy-going and genuine nature made this project a dream. Nothing was ever too hard and he adapted to changes in plans very well. I could not recommend Phil, Andrew and his team highly enough. They came in on time and on budget and were always calm, friendly and helpful. Amazing! ”

“I wanted to thank you so much for the wonderful job you and your firm did with my stair handrails. I was so impressed by your promptness and efficiency regarding this task.

"Your staff were so polite and it’s hard to find young workers who go out of their way to finish the job to their expectations. Very refreshing. I loved the way your staff vacuumed all of the stairs for me. Thanking you for a job well done.”

– Victoria Butterworth

"Over the last 3 years I have engaged Phil and his team to do some renovations at my office and at my home. Last year we did a complete new fit out at my office. I had a vague idea of what I wanted however I don't have the knack of putting things together or visualising what I want. I need to see it so knowing the chic look I was after, Phil referred me to an interior designer that he has worked with before. I didn't even bother consulting with anyone else because I trust Phil. This referral was one of the best decisions I made in conjunction with engaging Phil to carry out the building works. I cannot speak highly enough of Phil and his team of guys Taraz, Harry and Blake. They are seriously the best and I won't ever use anyone else for building works I need . Their communication and punctuality is excellent. The end result of everything ABD does is nothing short of first class and fantastic."

"Andrew, just wanted to let you know what a great job you do. You're exceptional at co-ordination and you have a great understanding of the details. So nice that you are always happy to check in and ask the questions."

- Belinda from Sofiaa

"We are extremely delighted with the renovations that you have completed on our forever home. The whole process was new to us, and we relied on your knowledge and expertise which shone through the difficult Covid environment. We found that nothing was too difficult for you and every challenge was met with an outcome and treated as a mere obstacle. The level of quality on the build was exceptional and the trades from the excavator, tiler, pool builder, electrician and all the trades produced an outstanding quality of work with pride and passion! The attention to detail and the tidiness of the project was impeccable. We could not of been happier in your hands. All our friends and family love the new entertaining space that you have created for us."
