Very good experience. Great communications from confirming the design and handing over the house. No hassle during construction as my agent helped me to handle all the matters. I am quite happy about building my house through Luxton. They are reliable.

Luxton Homes were a dream to deal with. We had a great site manager in Nick and couldn't fault them from start to finish. The construction process was quick with minimal delays and no compromises on quality. Prompt responses from their customer service team for enquiries also made it easy to deal with compared to Tier 1 builders. We would definitely build with them again !
Shaun .FVictoria
Build was completed in a timely manner, and the workmanship was commendable. Shout-out to the site supervisor Rob, from the reports he clearly was experienced on matters on how to schedule and complete a build. Thankyou to the Kathryn the on-site coordinator. Kept us well informed throughout the process and liased well with the independant building inspector we appointed. Would use Luxton Homes again, if my travels brought me to build in VIC.

I built with Luxton Homes for my house at Rye and the Site Manager David was exceptional. The quality of the home produced was beyond my expectations. The build was done in good time frames and couldn't be happier

We had a fantastic experience with Luxton Homes. We were genuinely impressed by how quickly the house was completed without compromising on quality. A special thank you to Athula for managing the project so efficiently and with such great attention to detail. We truly appreciate the extra care taken throughout the process. The house looks absolutely beautiful and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend Luxton Homes to anyone looking to build!
Haman.GVictoria
From the moment we signed the contract to have a house built in Beveridge Vic, the communication from Luxton Homes has been outstanding. Every stage of the build we were informed. On final inspection, the Luxton gentleman who showed us through was helpful, courteous and very professional. The house was immaculate and we are very pleased with the end result. If in the future we were to build another property, would definitely look at Luxton first. Thank you to everyone at Luxton for such an easy build.
Kat.SVictoria
Building our first home with Luxton Homes is the best decision we have ever made. Our experience from the first stage of the build down to settlement has been smooth with no issues and no major delays. We were informed every step of the way of what to expect. We visited the site every week and with awe we can see improvements after improvements until the whole house erected! Thanks Luxton Homes for building our first home efficiently and professionally!
Elizabeth.QVictoria
I am very much satisfied with overall project work. My house was build before expected time and as per the agreed plan. Excellent work done by Luxton team. I was informed at every stage and for any change during the construction. Me and my wife are very happy with overall work.
Rajiv.SVictoria
The experience of dealing with Luxton Homes was a very positive and rewarding one. Luxton Homes exhibit a very high level of professionalism and punctuality. The build quality of the finished house was excellent and the cost fair. Communication throughout my build was consistent and frequent. I dealt directly with a staff member in the head office and a site manager, both of whom were friendly, easy to deal with and addressed all my requests. Highly recommended building company!
