“After completing plans for major renovations, our architect personally recommended three builders. We obtained quotes from each of the builders and chose John Condon for the job. After several meetings, we were very pleased with our decision and most impressed with his ‘down to earth’ approach and easy-going manner. Since I travel frequently with work, I needed a builder who would be flexible enough to time the work to coincide with the days I was at home. John was more than willing to do this and the work proceeded very smoothly. We requested that the new work blend in a particular way with the original fabric of the house. This required the use of both traditional and modern techniques and was successfully achieved on John’s part. He was also able to contribute many valuable suggestions, especially when dealing with the inevitable problems as they arose. The tradesmen who were employed by John were of a very high standard. We are very pleased with the end result and do not hesitate in recommending John Condon to anyone looking for a truly professional and reliable builder.”

Tony and Meulyn Bird, Mosman, NSW

“We are extremely happy with your work and were happy with the quality of your employees, particularly the onsite team leader, who was clearly committed to achieving a quality result and was also extremely respectful of our issues. The work, as you well know, was completed in the time frame expected, and the price was as agreed with the exception of variations that we initiated and subsequently agreed to along the way. I wish you well for the future, and successes for you and your team that you richly deserve.”

Greg and Penny, Hunters Hill

“We were extremely pleased with the work done for us. The work was of extremely high quality, done within the time we specified and within our budget. The work was complex, as being an old house, the extent of the work needed was not clear until it began. John gave accurate quotes where possible and outlined the various possibilities of dealing with certain problems. We always felt that we were well informed of the various options available, both in regard the quality and cost. The site was cleaned up promptly and the intrusion was minimal. We are delighted with the completed job and have no hesitation in recommending John Condon.”

Helen and Steve, Drummoyne

“I have known John Condon of Harbour City Homes P/L since 1998 in his role as builder on projects, which were constructed and inspected within the Parramatta and Gosford Council areas that were under my direct control as a Director and an Accredited Building Surveyor. I have found John to be a conscientious person who has a sound knowledge of building industry and the construction standards applicable to domestic and commercial construction works. A project at Great Western Highway, Parramatta that had a value of $550,000 is an excellent example of his workmanship for a commercial project and was completed to a good and workmanlike manner. A project at West St, Umina that had a value of $1,500,000 is an excellent example of his workmanship in a multi-residential project and was completed to a good and workmanlike manner. I have always found John to be a person of the highest integrity.”

Bernie Cohen, MAIBS, Director, Essential Certifiers Liverpool

“John Condon undertook and completed a significant renovation/extension of my property, a 2 storey terrace house. I awarded the job to John on the basis of price and his excellent references. As an architect, I am well aware that alterations and additions work of the type I was undertaking invariably will involve unforeseen items. It was important to me to have a contractor I felt I could trust to be reasonable in pricing variations, and in dealing with the unexpected. I have been extremely satisfied with the completed product, and visitors including professional colleagues have commented on the apparent quality of the building work.”

Con, Chartered Architect, Camperdown

“John and his team from Harbour City Homes completed an extensive renovation & addition to our home. We were very impressed with his commitment especially when it came to making sure things were completed on time, within our tight budget and to a high standard. We would have no hesitation in recommending John and his team to anyone wanting a quality job done on budget and on time.”

John & Sue, Boronia Park

“We have been professionally involved with John Condon or Harbour City Homes P/L for approximately three years. During all projects with Harbour City Homes P/L we have been constantly involved during design and construction stages and have found them to be careful, diligent and methodical in their approach to all aspects of construction.”

Stephen, CP Eng, CSG Engineers P/L

“I have had dealings with John in a professional capacity over the past 8 years and in this time John has been the builder for a number of my projects. All were alterations and additions to existing houses and it is noteworthy that all have had heritage significance, consequently requiring an above average standard of detailing and finishing. I consider John to be a competent, cooperative and capable builder whom I continue to recommend to my clients.”
