What our clients say
“In a personal capacity, with Astute Build's work on my beautiful large renovated villa, I cannot speak highly enough of Jesse and the team. Not only are they extremely professional and have exceptional expertise in their industry, they are a company of great people. The type of trades people that will never let you down, that you can place all your trust in. Astute Build goes above & beyond on every level.”
— Dow Goodfolk (August, 2025)“Astute Build did a major renovation of our Freeman's Bay villa including, but not limited to, a new kitchen, scullery and powder room. These guys are true professionals, very tidy, safety conscious and fun to be around. We trusted them explicitly with the project, much of what was done while we were overseas. They didn't disappoint. We would highly recommend Astute Build to anyone considering building or renovating their house.”
— Dona White (June, 2025)“This was a major renovation and once again Astute Build has done a great job for me (the second time I have used them). A very tired 50+ year old house, with several problems, has been transformed into an attractive, warm, safe and comfortable home by Astute's competent, thoughtful and pleasant builders. I would not hesitate to recommend them.”
