We had the pleasure of working with Matt Dowdy who transformed our home building a great first-floor extension. From the outset, his professionalism and dedication were evident. His pricing was fair and reasonable, and he was transparent throughout the entire process, ensuring there were no surprises along the way.


What truly sets Matt apart was his impeccable attention to detail. Every aspect of the renovation was handled with precision and care, resulting in a flawless outcome that exceeded our expectations reflecting his commitment to delivering a great finished product.


Throughout the project, his communication was always prompt and clear. He kept us informed about the progress and any necessary adjustments, fostering a sense of trust and ease during the renovation journey.


Moreover, we were thrilled that he completed the project on time. His efficiency allowed us to maximise the value of our home without any unnecessary delays. Thanks to his expertise, we now have a beautifully expanded living space.

Over the years our family has undertaken many renovations, both small and large. We have worked with many quality builders and building industry professionals, however there is one building company that stands out as the absolute best. Dowdy Constructions sets the highest bar in quality, craftsmanship and professionalism.


Matt Dowdy’s team demonstrate exceptional attention to detail, genuine care of the work and an honest, transparent approach to scoping and pricing.


On our project, Matt led the team and engaged with us in a way that was thoughtful and intelligent. He helped interpret the architects plans, suggesting several adaptations that gave us a better outcome. Matt took accountability for every aspect of the build, clearly taking pride in both the work and the reputation of his team. Matt and the team are proactive, hard workers and strong communicators. We always felt up to date with how the project was progressing.


We are delighted with the end result. It is an award worthy build.


- Tristan

I highly recommend Matt Dowdy and his team for any building work around the home. We recently had a deck renovation (July 2023). Matt was friendly and professional in the way he helped us formulate our ideas into a plan of action. He provided a timely quote, was quick to set a time to begin work and completed without delays.

Matt and his team were careful and skilful in all aspects of their work. They arrived on time, worked conscientiously and were at all times respectful in our space. I was very impressed with the care Matt took with his work. He and his team delivered a quality product.
