Testimonials

I would like to thank you again for the hard work you and your team have put into the successful completion of our Brookvale Centre. Your strong attention to keeping and improving the schedule is the major reason for the timeliness of completion. You have brought a great deal of experience that has been invaluable in a project of this size and is a key reason for its success. I am extremely proud of the centre and have enjoyed working with you to get it built. Total Construction has been working closely with Kennards Self Storage since 1994 and has successfully delivered over self-storage facilities. Given the absolute need to complete these projects on time and on budget, they have played a key role in the successful growth of our company."

To any prospective clients contemplating a partnership with TOTAL for their construction needs, I endorse them. TOTAL stands out for its industry acumen, ingrained culture of collaboration, and adaptability - qualities that are invaluable in today's ever evolving construction landscape. Our experience working with TOTAL spans multiple states, and throughout these engagements, we have consistently encountered teams characterised by integrity, professionalism, and a commitment to excellence. Our collaboration with TOTAL transcends the bounds of individual projects and we view it as a long-lasting strategic alliance. I can confidently assert that our business has derived significant benefits from this partnership, and I have every reason to believe that other clients will share in these rewarding experiences."

Together with Steve Taylor and the Construction Manager from TOTAL and Simon Thorne from Integrated Design Group, we have been able to deliver a state of the art home.

The TOTAL team have efficiently addressed all design and construction challenges in each of our projects and have a proven track record in effective communication. TOTAL’s commitment to quality outcomes along with post-completion attention have greatly assisted our team to commission these new facilities to become operational in as short a time as possible after project handover."

I have been acquainted with Bill Franks and Steve Taylor of Total Construction for the last 15 years and in each setting, I’ve worked with the TOTAL team I have found them professional, responsive, proactive, and helpful. They have tremendous experience in Self Storage construction which is obvious, however it is their pre-construction advice and consulting where I have found them extremely helpful to me in my roles over the last 15 years and especially now with our developments with StorHub. Value engineering and creative construction methods are a particular strength of the team. Their knowledge and professionalism are second to none."

I choose to work with TOTAL for their standout knowledge of the Self Storage Industry, they have the background and the experience, and I have dealt with them for a number of years in other businesses and as an owner for several builds and projects that are currently in the pipeline. TOTAL are great in the way they collaborate. They are open and talk about solutions. A deal is a deal with them, they get through problems faster and we get through builds quicker. With our North Lakes Coomera and Pimpama projects, TOTAL exceeded our expectations, great quality projects, delivered on time and to budget. I have recommended Total Construction in the past and will continue to do so."

At our first tender meeting, TOTAL arrived well prepared and demonstrated a thorough understanding of the project concept and brief. TOTAL took the time to explain their processes and point out key features of their design and building. TOTAL always collaborate, are willing to cost, engineer and present alternative options to address unexpected challenges that present themselves through the building process. StoreLocal provide the builder scope to fill in the design gaps. TOTAL's ability to interpret, design and build exceeds our expectations. TOTAL’s site teams take great pride in their work, something that stands out when our StoreLocal team and partners visit sites. Their estimating team are knowledgeable and inexhaustible. Total Construction bring the benefit of many years of experience building self-storage facilities to StoreLocal builds. They complete the builds on budget and ahead of programme. StoreLocal regularly recommend TOTAL as facility development partners ... without hesitation."

The recent facility fit out works Total Construction carried out for European Catering was conducted with utmost professionalism. From the first initial contact, working with Total Construction’s, Food and Beverage Division has been a pleasure. TOTAL’s approach to being along for the journey with their clients was both true and beneficial. Numerous meetings were conducted regularly and professionally to ensure that every party was on the same page and up to date on details. Throughout the process Total supplied our organisation and myself with comprehensive designs, advice, quotes, scope of works, and the rest works conducted was to the highest standard. In closing, European Catering is delighted to have the opportunity to work with Total Construction and hope we have the pleasure to work together again at some stage in the future."

"TOTAL have delivered us a building which has exceeded our expectations, is of high standard of finish and most importantly, have paid strong attention to making sure minor defects are attended to, we have been trained in its operation and are currently preparing a maintenance regime for ongoing care of the building... Honesty was promised all the way, and when time was tight toward the end of delivery of the project, TOTAL were honest, open and transparent which helped alleviate any fears we had. I would recommend Total Construction to any prospective client."

TOTAL’s co-operation in minimising disturbance to residents was appreciated. Positive and regular communication between TOTAL, the Architect and TTHA ensured an excellent project outcome with the project on budget and our residents and staff all enjoying the new facility. TOTAL's co-operation in observing strict site Covid-19 rules was very much appreciated."

TOTAL successfully completed the design completion and construction of stage 1 of Central Park's Central Thermal Plant (CTP) and Tri-generation facility. Being the first of its kind in Australia for a mixed precinct, this project was highly complex and had many challenging aspects from commencement to completion. TOTAL 'stepped up to the plate' and produced a high quality, reliable plant, which now serves over 1,400 apartments and 13,500m2 of retail space. TOTAL's attitude, commitment and willingness to provide a quality outcome for all stakeholders is one of the reasons why we awarded the second and final stage of the CTP to Total Construction. We look forward to a long and rewarding relationship."

TOTAL have now successfully completed a number of aged care projects with our firm. We have found TOTAL's team to be refreshingly co-operative and attentive. Under the hands-on direction of its owners-in particular Steve Taylor, TOTAL brings a level of client side understanding that sets them apart from others and makes them a contractor of choice when considering the next aged care project. We have no hesitation in recommending TOTAL."
