Our Story

"If anyone is after a quality builder who delivers excellent results with attention to detail look no further than P.A. Dance Builders. This fantastic family business has built our wonderful home and now are adding a concrete deck to both levels to take in those awesome views. Mick & Mel "

"Just the thought of a renovation is often enough to give rise to second thoughts by a homeowner. Our recent renovation was the second undertaken by the team at PA Dance Builders, and we couldn’t be more pleased with their professionalism, tradesmanship, knowledge, training, and overall desire to make sure the process ran smoothly. We acknowledge that the success of the project was due to a well thought out plan and project costings, in addition to a huge team effort by Phil, Cherie and their amazing team of tradies who pulled it all together. We were kept informed every step of the way, and our expectations were exceeded at every turn. We are delighted with the finished work and would highly recommend PA Dance Builders to take the stress out of what can often be an extremely anxious exercise. If you make the decision to engage PA Dance Builders, you will be very pleased you did, we certainly are! Michele "

"Having met you both at the Home Show 2012, we immediately thought you were two very down to earth people who are very passionate about bringing the personal touch to building homes for your clients. After speaking with you at the show, we were really inspired to get our piece of land and start planning and designing our new home; indeed, our first home in Tasmania. We were very impressed with the way you went about meeting us and finding out our needs. When the work commenced, your workmen really seemed to take pride in their work and just got on with the job. The fact that we lived in a caravan on site for a while helped both us and your workmen to resolve any issues quickly. We would be very happy to recommend you to family and friends. Indeed, we have recommended you to our son who is planning and designing his own home for him and his family. John & Anne"

"I am very pleased that Keith and I met up with you at the Home Show as I don't think we could have found more accommodating builders with whom to work! Having your input, especially with regard to the pantry design, was extremely helpful at our initial meeting. We were impressed with the way in which you organized the other tradespeople and that everyone turned up when they were expected. The quality of the joinery work and the effort taken to match and insert the new pieces of slate in the floor has meant that the new additions blend seamlessly with the existing parts of the kitchen. Now that I have had a few days to use the kitchen I couldn't be happier with the ease in which I can operate, with materials being more accessible. We will certainly consider your company for any future work we may plan and will be happy to recommend you to family and friends. "

"We are extremely happy with the work completed on the renovations. There was a consistent high standard of workmanship and any issues that came up were dealt with quickly and resolved with the best outcomes in mind. Phil was involved in overseeing the progress and behind the scenes his experience and expertise was evident. We appreciate the project was a team effort, so acknowledging individuals is difficult. Phil and Cherie; great team. Above all the kindness and compassion the team had for my daughter was beyond thoughtful. She looked forward to you being on site and this will be one of many wonderful memories taken from this time. This type of undertaking is always open to going off track, yet the opposite was our experience. Issues were dealt with quickly, and it was a great experience – keeping in mind having the house where you live worked on will inevitably be disruptive, and we expected this. We were pleased that this was minimal, and we were able to work around the work you were doing. We were briefed regarding any out of the ordinary events that might be taking place over the coming week (e.g., power outage, or loud noises) that had potential for disruption. Michele "

"After several trips to the Home Show and talking with a number of builders we always found ourselves feeling very comfortable with Phill and Cherie and found our greatest trust was in PA Dance Builders. Phill and Cherie were great to deal with and were always ready to listen and were very transparent in their approach. We were very grateful for the balance they struck in being flexible, assisting us with any requests and in providing us guidance through the process. Phill is very experienced and great at finding pragmatic solutions. It was impressive to see the amount of material that went into the construction of our home and seeing the quality to which Phill builds to. Phill and Cherie were very fair about any variations, resolution of issues, doing what was agreed and overall, it was a really positive experience on quite a complex build. We are very grateful to Phil & Cherie for giving us an amazing home and enabling our dream. Sincere thanks. Allan and Nina "

"It was at the Home Show in Hobart where we first met the delightful Cherie and Phil Dance, we were drawn by their genuine friendly and helpful manner. With their professional guidance and their ability to firstly understand then visualize our visions we have now completed 3 major renovations to an excellent standard. Throughout all the renovations Phil, Cherie and all the team were always aware and accommodating of our family needs and ready to assist in any way possible to make our lives easier whilst living in a home under renovation. Nothing was ever a problem for either Phil or Cherie and they made themselves readily available to us at any time. We would like to compliment P A Dance Builders for their high standard of workmanship and brilliant organizational skills. We are delighted with how PA Dance has transformed our 1950’s property into a stunning modern home and we would highly recommend them. Paul & Sue "
