I have worked with Richard and Lisa recently in my role supporting families with safety needs at home for their children. Richard and Lisa took exceptional care of my client during a fence build. Their communication was excellent. They liaised with neighbours to ensure there were no challenges with the project, and the fence build was of a very high standard and fully met the brief that was required. Would highly recommend Bay Building Solutions and would love to work with them again in the future.

We got Rich and his team from Bay Building Solutions to do a deck repair on our second storey home. its was a tricky fix after we found some moisture inside the plaster. Rich was fantastic to work with. Gave us an honest up front quote on what it would take to make it water tight, then followed up with fantastic work with his team to get it all fixed and complaint for us to then sell the property. Rich and the team were fantastic to work with, that we got them to carry out some alterations at our new house. Again, awesome to work with. We would highly recommend Richard and Lisa if you have any building requirements. You won’t find a better company to work with.

I got Bay Building Solutions to renovate my rental to be ready for sale. Richard was great to work with. He coordinated all the subbies and was very helpful with suggestions. On time and no issues. The final product was really great. The house sold quickly and was down to the great presentation Richards team did for me. I would recommend Bay Building Solutions for any home renovation work.

We have utilised Richie, Lisa and their team at Bay Building Solutions, twice in the last 18 months. Once for a major alteration to our house and the second time for a separate minor maintenance project. Both times have resulted in excellent quality workmanship from all of the Tradies involved, with comprehensive care and communication giving us peace of mind throughout the whole process. We would always recommend Bay Building Solutions

We had Bay Building Solutions advise us and quote for what we thought to be a large renovation of our home. Nothing was a problem and I immediately felt Richard had our project under control. We highly recommend BBS and his team for any construction/renovation project. Thank you, Richard and Lisa!
