ONE OF OUR MANY SATISFIED CUSTOMERS.

Working with the estimator at HBXL was a really worthwhile piece of work. The estimator was knowledgeable and took time to alter specifics and listen to queries. Overall the final result was a detailed document which is proving really valuable to our self build experience.

Michelle Hyatt

Tania Thandi

Am I happy with the service?

Absolutely 100%. Ian my account manager, the estimators, first class. You couldn’t ask for more.

Sheldan Camden, Lunnon & Tilbury

The information that you provided is proving invaluable as it gave me the comfort that the project was affordable and I am able to use it as a cross-check on where the actual costs are going. So, a win, win situation so far and nine working days in with good weather and a ready supply of materials, things are on budget and on time.
