Testimonials
What Our Clients Say
If you're looking for a custom designed dream home with cutting edge tech and layout to suit the environment, then look no further than Tailored Homes. We are extremely grateful for the workmanship that went into arguably one of Far North Queensland's best homes.
From the beginning of the process, Tim made us feel at ease. We were definitely nervous about building, having never built or renovated before. Tim met us at our block of land before purchase and helped us conceptualise the possibilities of the design and budget. We purchased the block immediately after that meeting with Tim.
One of the most outstanding characteristics of the Tailored Home team is attention to detail. From plans to completion, we were impressed by Tim’s dedication to ensuring the build was of the highest quality possible.
The house that we built with Tailored Homes has exceeded our dreams and is a home where we are proud to welcome our friends and family. The result is a personal, functional, and beautiful house where we keep waking up and saying to each other, “This is our house!” back on our experience, we would build with Tailored Homes again in a heartbeat.
Over the past few years, we've toured numerous display homes and consistently found ourselves drawn to Tailored Homes Cairns. It's not just the homes themselves that captivate us, but also the exceptional team behind them. Our experience with the team has been nothing short of fantastic.
