Testimonials

“In my dealings and time working with Richard I have always found him extremely organised, disciplined and professional. He’s always the gentleman, willing, an experienced collaborator, delivering on time and on budget. I initially engaged Richard for The Albert Park Hotel construction, I had no hesitation commissioning Richard as the builder for my following projects, Nagambie Lakes Leisure Park, The Middle Park Hotel and The Newmarket Hotel and he is commencing a refurbishment of Mitchelton winery.”

Gerry Ryan – Jayco/Melbourne Pub Group

“Richard’s ability to control and co-ordinate a large team of sub-contactors on a complex project made the experience of building The Boatbuilders Yard a delight. Richard can think on his feet when it counts, possessing an innate design sense with the ability to translate our architect’s vision effectively. His genuine enthusiasm for the job was an addictive quality we all enjoyed.”

Dave Sharry & Richie Ludbrook – Riverland

“Tate Construction have been responsible for delivering some extremely challenging projects for me over the years, and I could not recommend them more highly. Director Richard Tate is the type of Builder who sees only solutions, not problems. Whether you are negotiating hundreds of dollars or millions, Richard always keeps his focus on the best outcome for the project. The number of repeat clients who request Tate Construction is due to not only the very high standard of construction delivered, but also the fact that Richard is such a pleasure to work with, no matter how tough a situation becomes.”

Mark Healy – Director Six Degrees Architects

“I have used Richard Tate and his team to rebuild and renovate two Inner city Victorian homes, and have been extremely pleased with the results. Tight sites and tricky pre-existing conditions in these old homes are handled with care and a solutions-based approach – nothing is too much trouble. Importantly Richard’s team has consistency and is able to achieve project delivery on time. I would certainly use Tate Constructions again for my next renovation project.”

John Byrne – Residential

“Richard through his Tate Construction company has undertaken four projects for me over the last 12 years, including a complete renovation of my Middle Park address as well as our newly constructed Point Lonsdale beach house. On each occasion we have been impressed with Richard’s professionalism and dedication to quality build and timeliness. Our projects have required particular skill as each have been architect delivered including a more difficult angular configuration at Point Lonsdale. His crew and subcontractors are always well drilled and pleasant to deal with. We have no hesitation whatsoever in promoting Tate Constructions as a builder of choice.”

“Building our home with Richard and his team was a delight. Their craftsmanship and detail was immaculate. They were instrumental in many features and elements that we did not anticipate or believe possible. They are a hardworking, honest team that created a home that we never dreamt we could ever have.”
