We would like to thank you and greatly appreciate the work you both did for us in getting our holiday home shack up and running.

I cannot thank you enough for the fantastic extension and other jobs you have done for me around my home. Over the last 5yrs I have stressed about do I stay and renovate or should I leave. Yes, I have been totally overwhelmed! Since Having Trevor here and step me through the process in the beginning really eased my mind and set me up to take the chance. Throughout the build, Trevor's support, guidance and ability to talk to me in non-builders terms has been invaluable. I never believed the build would not only look as good as it does but enable my home to feel totally finished. The standard is so much better than I ever anticipated. Thankyou again so much, I'm finally realizing I now have a new master suite with my own loo and a Taj-mahal of a dressing room.

Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value. I used Morton Construction to do the preparation for a large kitchen restoration. I needed a wall removed and involved having structural work in the roof. Trevor organized the engineering report, sourced the replacement beam and installed it. A new window was installed and gyprock to new framework. During this time Trevor kept me informed of costs involved and the time-frame to complete the work. He always turned up on time. Both he and his son Daniel were extremely courteous at all times. I have no hesitation in recommending them for any general building work.

Your work is amazing and the best bit is how you talk me thru whats going to happen and communicate queries etc with me. Thanks again. Cheers.

We can’t thank you,Trevor, and Daniel enough for what you have done for our house. The extension, renovation and now pergola that you and Daniel have built have blown us away. You have made what could’ve been a difficult process, such an enjoyable one. Your excellent craftsmanship, skill for your trade, efficient work ethic and attention-to-detail have successfully completed this build. I have enjoyed working with you and your sub-contractors throughout the entire process with your excellent communication skills, hard-work and dedication. I would (and already have) highly recommended your business to anyone looking for a builder. We are so grateful for what you and Daniel have done for our family – you’ve made our house into our home, thank you so much!! You will be missed around our place and I thank you for your friendship. This is certainly not goodbye.

We grabbed a couple of nights at Walker Flat and we're delighted to see your finished product. You have undertaken it very well and I did not expect the level of finish and flashing which you have achieved. So neat and clean and hopefully water proof. Thank you very much again. Thanks for making it relatively painless and being a pleasure to deal with.

Still enjoying the bathroom and laundry! - Thanks again for a great job! - Thankyou very much for a job, as always, very well done!!

Thanks for all your great work in making this happen in such a hassle-free manner with the tidiest work site we’ve ever experienced. My wife is very pleased with the outcome and we’re more than happy to show the stables to anyone contemplating a similar project

We are very pleased with the excellent work that Morton Construction did for us at Walker Flat holiday home. Our board walk and jetty looking fantastic. Great work in a very professional and timely manner. We can highly recommend Trevor and his team for there workman ship.

We admire Trevor for his honesty, caring and humorous nature & consider Trevor more than just a builder but a friend that we have made. We already miss his presence around our home but look forward to him returning for future projects. I think that in itself says enough in recommendation that we want him back & would not consider looking anywhere else for another builder!

Throughout our build I never heard any raised voices, arguments or animosity amongst anyone. On the contrary it was just one big happy worksite filled with good vibes, chatter, music & laughter. It was actually a joy having everyone around & we were so surprised that the extension seemed to go quickly and smoothly something we never expected in a million years to happen but it did! This was largely due to Trevor who wears his heart on his sleeve & relishes the chance to build & converse with his clients & complete a job that he & they can be proud of. We certainly are proud of what Trevor & his son & trades have achieved. They have given us a new master bedroom, ensuite, WIR/storage & bedroom conversion to a childrens’ living room; keeping with the original 1980’s style of the home. (A mean feat when many bricks, windows, lights, architraves were no longer available in the style from that era.) We have proudly & excitedly shown our extensions to others and absolutely love the extra space and functionality the rooms provide.

I never once was concerned leaving anyone in the house unattended/or leaving a key when we were not present in our house. The integrity of those on the build was second to none.

Trevor & his son Daniel worked hard when they were here & were extremely (& I mean extremely) meticulous in their tidiness which rubbed off on his recommended trades. Trevor set the “bar high” and all his contracted trades (draftsman, excavator, concreter, bricklayer, roofer, gyprocker, tilers, electrician, painter, cabinet maker) working on our extensions knew this and we would often hear them say “I just want to go over this one more time so it will pass Trevor’s inspection!”

During the preliminaries of our planning & during our build Trevor’s communication was really exceptional. He frequently would ring us in the evening to discuss our building requirements (ie our building wish list) & challenges re council approval (particularly with septic tank requirements/alterations). He always documented them thoroughly via email to keep us & him aware of what was discussed & said. We were always kept informed & in the loop by phone, email or SMS as to what was going on & what was the next step we/he needed to proceed with. No question was too little or too big for him to answer, often taking the extra time to explain the building process to novices like ourselves. He thrived on building abnormalities, (e.g. access to our property was extremely steep for access & delivery of materials) looking at these as not hindrances but as always solvable challenges which I think he rather enjoyed! He was always, & I mean always one step ahead of the building process always looking towards the next completion stage of the build, informing us when, who, why & how long it would take. He said our build would take 3½ to 4 months to complete – it took 4 months to the day to finish.

Trevor’s costing for our project was fair & honest but what we appreciated more was very accurate. In his projections of cost he quoted, displayed & allowed for variables & where able we were refunded money for materials/contingencies not used – when does this ever happen? We knew exactly what we were required to pay for & when & what outlays we were required to fund ourselves

- Dear Trevor, What can we say? Thank you truly for being such an awesome, amazing, friendly, thorough, clean, tidy, super, terrific, wonderful, ....(this list could easily go on) builder. We have warmly appreciated you, Daniel & all your trades efforts.

Many thanks Trevor. Eldercare appreciates your communication with residents and cooperative approach.

Trevor & Daniel, many thanks again for your excellent work.

15/8/2012

Once again your excellent workmanship has been appreciated in our recent home renovations.

1/7/2012

Trev, as I said to you when we inspected the vacant block, I would not consider building a home if i did not know you. After 10yrs of doing all my projects, you have again proven to be professional and a perfectionist. Thanks also to Daniel and the great tradesmen you organized for me.

26/3/2012

Thanks Trevor & Daniel. I'm so pleased with everything. Also thankyou for moving the furniture back.

25/2/2011

Thanks for all your help Trev it's been a pleasure working with you.

23/2/2011

29/12/10 - As far as we are concerned the job was really well done (we have had quite a few people comment over the course of the build on the quality of the work) and we are very happy with the final outcome/quality

29/12/2010

Thankyou. Trevor and Daniel. Always meant to be and looks great.

As you are aware, I am very pleased with the renovations to back of my home, in particular, the kitchen. They are far better than anything I had envisaged.

Hi, the roof is WONDERFULL! I can't stress that enough. We're very happy with it. Many, many thanks!

We really appreciate the personal attention we have received from you during the past year. I don't know that I'm actually 'looking forward' to our forthcoming building project, but at least I'm confident we'll get a good outcome!

Thanks very much Trevor & Daniel! I'm very happy with the work done and looking forward to it being painted and getting my furniture into it. Kindest regards.

To Trevor and the team at Morton Constructions. We thank you for your professional advice and service in the building of our dream home at Walker Flat. We would recommend Morton Constructions whether it be an addition or a completely new building. Trev walks the talk, gives great service and is genuinely a trustworthy person who understands the building industry. Once again, thanks Trevor, your mate Ian.

A great renovation job to convert a shed/garage into a entertainment room for the kids. Very professional, tidy and understanding. Highly recommended. Thanks Trevor.

Thanks Morton Constructions, we couldn't be happier with our renovations! You have changed our lifestyle. Great Service, friendly and trustworthy. We highly recommend you to others.

I am over the moon with the success of the enclosure. Thankyou very much.

The stables are a great success and have been admired by all.

Thankyou, Trevor, for my wonderful bathroom

We have conducted business with your business for the past four yrs. We find you have, at all times, maintained an excellent standard of workmanship. And your costings were accurate as per your quotation.

Sorry we missed you on your last day here. We thankyou for doing a terrific job on the stables.

Thankyou for such a neat, tidy and professional job.

Thankyou for another job well done. You have done exactly what we asked even though some projects were unusual, your work has been meticulous.

Thankyou. I admire your workmanship and I am thrilled with my shed.

Thank you very much for the excellent job you did on our carport. We are extremely pleased with the finished result and the way you performed the work. We will be pleased to recommend you to our friends.

Aldgate. Just got home, the pergola looks amazing. So pleased with it. I'm blown away. Such a sad day that our build has come to an end. Definitely not goodbye tho.

Thanks Trev and Daniel for transforming our space. You have exceeded our expectations!

24/1/2021

Thanks Trev, for making our house a home. We greatly appreciate your hardwork and effort. We couldnt have asked for a better builder!! Enjoy your holidays, you deserve a break.

Our association with Trevor began when he first visited us for a site visit to determine whether we would use him for our house renovations in the Adelaide Hills. It became quickly apparent after his 1½ hour “chat” that he was the builder we would use due to his infinite knowledge of building codes & Adelaide Hills Council requirements & regulations. After further consultation we were very happy he agreed to not only be our builder but to also project manage our extension & assist us with council approval & their associated difficulties.

Many thanks to you and Daniel for turning my ugly duckling into a swan and my dream into reality. I enjoyed the experience greatly and now I look fwd to enjoying living in it. The kids and I just love it. A special thanks to Jr for turning my old windows into the best 'Bling on the Block'. Cheers.

As a home owner for more than 35 years, I have had various experiences with builders, many of whom have not put a smile on my face. Then along came Trevor…. he was like a breath of fresh air. He did what he said he was going to, in the time frame he set at a cost that was fair…..and with a smile on his face, making the whole exercise a very pleasant one. I wish that we had met sooner!

31/7/14

Hi, What a stunning surprise when I came home! I was completely unprepared for the impact that the change to space would have on me. I was blown away by the sense of space, openness and connection to the outside. The change that occurred as a result of your work was just stunning. Even though it is what I had been planning for in the many small decisions we had made along the way, to actually experience the space was beyond my expectations. We greatly appreciate the work you and the team you lead are doing, from the quality of building craft, to your consideration of our living in the building site, the tolerance of the dynamic nature of the design process and thoughtful and very considerate approach to the reality of building costs.

Trevor has carried out residential and commercial construction building work throughout the Mt barker Council District. During this time my colleague and I have inspected Trevor’s work at various stages in our capacity as Authorised Building Officers. We both found that his work was thorough, neat and structurally sound. His performance clearly reflects his wide understanding of building practices , Australian Standards and BCA. He has the capacity to resolve difficulties that arise during the construction stages. Trevor’s documentation in presenting Development Act applications to Council is always clear and concise.

Our association with Trevor began when he first visited us for a site visit to determine whether we would use him for our house renovations in the Adelaide Hills. It became quickly apparent after his 1½ hour “chat” that he was the builder we would use due to his infinite knowledge of building codes & Adelaide Hills Council requirements & regulations. After further consultation we were very happy he agreed to not only be our builder but to also project manage our extension & assist us with council approval & their associated difficulties.

I have consulted with Trevor on many occasions over many aspects of structural design in relation to the building projects he has undertaken. I find he has a sound understanding of the principles of structural design and I have been impressed with his ability to apply the principles to a variety of projects. Trevor is well versed in the use of span tables and building codes and have no hesitation in recommending him for other jobs.
