Satisfied Customers

The Scholten Brothers and their team worked tirelessly and passionately on our home renovation for over a year.

Their craft is faultless, their passion for sustainability tireless and they were an absolute pleasure to have around.

They brought to life our wildest dreams which at times would probably have been their nightmares.

Scholten group are without a doubt, the best builders my husband and I have worked with. We have full trust in Stewart and Cameron who carried out our renovations while we were both working away from home. Knowing the work completed was authentic and of high quality. No cover-ups. No short-cuts.

Together Stewart and Cameron are approachable, organised and meticulous in their work. They are open-minded to customer requests, happy to provide the best advice for quality and cost and are adaptable to the necessary changes.

Stewart and Cameron utilise their Passive House design skills to ensure the best building techniques are always used. They provide a healthy holistic approach to renovations and building elements.

Seeing Stewart in action on his building sites is something to be admired, with his attention to detail, and the level of thought and care that goes into building not only to a high standard, but also reducing mould risk, cleanliness, and minimising his client’s exposure to toxic chemicals.

Stewart is a wealth of knowledge thanks to his commitment to ongoing learning, in his efforts to master his craft. He is a valuable go-to source of information for myself and both my residential clients (many of whom wished he lived in their region so he could build their homes), as well as those in the building industry.

What I really admire about Stewart is that there is no ego, he is always open to new information, which I think is such an important trait for a builder, and keen and willing to collaborate with his industry peers to get the best outcomes for his clients.

If more homes in Australia were built to the standard that Stewart builds to, I believe we’d see a significant reduction in many of the illnesses we see today.

Cameron and Stewart Scholten did a major reno on my house in Byron Bay in late 2022. They were professional, reliable, innovative, good communicators, tidy, always delivered on schedule, and operated with precise attention to detail. Their team was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone requiring building works in Byron Shire.
