The last thing we want is a phone call asking “where the hell are you?!”
So we don’t operate like a lot of tradies.
We only take on what we can handle comfortably,
usually with a week or two between jobs so we don’t let people down.
It’s far more important that we turn one client into a fan, than three clients into ex-clients.
We learned that lesson almost 30 years ago and it’s a big part of the reason people trust us today.
Coy Building is a Hobart based family business that'd been providing quality, reliable building and earthmoving services
in Southern Tasmania for almost 30 years.. We're in this business to make a living… not to make a killing.
Our three decades of experience
means you can worry less.
We’ll be doing everything we can
to turn this into an exciting
experience.
Extensions are a particular kind
of challenge.
That’s why it’s so important
to choose the most experienced,
most reliable builder you can find.
We’ve renovated homes for some very happy people... and we’ve renovated homes for ourselves...
to sell...and to live in.
We know what the pitfalls are.
A lot of people can build you a deck.
But a builder will build you a better deck… and a better builder will build you the best deck.
Don’t compromise.
We can fit two more homes in this year, but we don’t want you to choose us
just because we’re available.
We want you to choose us because we’re the best builder you can find.
What makes a builder a better builder? They do their time… not just a course to get a certificate. We’ve
collectively been building homes for more than three decades. We didn’t finish a course, then set up a
website and buy a $100,000 ute on day one and then go looking for clients to help us pay it off.
We’ve been building the very best homes since the early 1990s. Regardless of whether it’s a two million
dollar showpiece or a modest granny flat. The process is the same. The joinery must be spot on. If one
of our guys say, “but it’s just a little gap’… he’s looking for a new job with a builder that doesn’t care.
Everything must be spot-on. The best plumber, the best electrician, the best painters. No weak links.
We’re not in the building business to see how many houses we can finish in a year… or how quickly we
can pay off that hundred thousand dollar ute, and an AirBnb with the million dollar views of the east coast.
We take pride in our work. If we’re going to build it, we want to be sure that our part of the job is never
in question. It doesn’t matter if it’s a modest place using budget materials… or a mansion with a hand
cut marble staircase shipped in from Israel, our job is our job. How well we do the job is how we get
judged. We want people to remember who did the job and how well they did the job.
Our reputation is worth more to us than a showhome, a dozen jet skis and a rolex.
We’d trade all of that to be known as the most experienced, most reliable, friendliest builder
around Hobart.
"All I want is a truck and an excavator… and maybe a decent trailer…
because having those things makes me a better builder" JAMES COY
James is a good bloke.
And good people do whatever they must to support, understand and accommodate the people they work for... and with.
Couple that kind of attitude with 30 years experience and you can be pretty confident your build
will be relatively stress free... and maybe even fun.
Ben is a chippie off the old block.
He's good at what he does. Very good, but he's also great to work with.
"And he has a great teacher" says James with a massive grin on his face!
We haven’t won any awards. Not one. We don’t enter awards.
What clients think of us will always be more important than awards!
"Big thanks to James and the team for their building services, high quality work and an eye for detail. Highly recommend"
Eddie Szkup
"Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value.
We chose Coy Builders as they were very responsive to our request for a quote and provided us with a competitive price.
They worked with us throughout the build to ensure we were satisfied with the end result. The job was completed to an exceptional standard, they were super efficient and met our timeframe. We can highly recommend them and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again for our next project."
