"Highly professional and his work of the highest quality."

I have had the pleasure of employing Richard and Griffin Concepts on three occasions over a four year period, and on each occasion, found him highly professional and his work of the highest quality. He is also an excellent communicator, and always carefully documents changes to any quote or brief, so that the customer does not experience any unexpected surprises. I would have no hesitation in employing him again in the future, and cannot recommend his services highly enough.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Richard from Griffin Concepts on a range of projects at the Australian National University in Canberra. These projects have included everything from smaller jobs to more complex ones, all completed successfully in the busy and challenging environment of a working university campus. Throughout our collaborations, Richard has always shown great flexibility and a positive, problem-solving attitude. He has a real talent for handling the unique challenges and needs that come with working in a university setting. At Downer Group, both our team and our clients have been consistently impressed by the high-quality work and professionalism of the Griffin Concepts team. Whether the project is big or small, their dedication to doing an excellent job is clear in everything they do. I highly recommend Griffin Concepts for any construction project. Their clear communication, careful planning, and smooth delivery from start to finish make them stand out as one of the best in the business.

I have been very pleased with the final product that Griffin Concepts has continually delivered.

I have known Richard Ali of Griffin Concepts since 2009. I was at the time a maintenance electrician with the hotel maintenance team. I have since progressed from there to Supervisor in 2011 and then Maintenance Manager in 2016.

The first project at the hotel for Griffin Concepts was the Serani Health Spa in 2009 which involved converting an existing kitchen area to a health spa, this was quite a sizable and challenging project.

The next project that Griffin Concepts did at the hotel was the conversion of the Park Room meeting room into a guest accommodation room in 2012. The most recent project was the conversion of room 601 from a suite with kitchenette to two separate rooms one a guest accommodation room and the other a staff lounge for Singapore Airlines crew. There have also been many other smaller works performed here by Griffin Concepts.

During the time I have known Richard and his company I have always been satisfied with the standard of workmanship and customer service that he and his team have delivered.

"Griffin Concepts completed the refurbishment ahead of schedule and to a very high standard."

My name is Andrew Corkery and I am the Assistant Director of Building Fabric Services at Parliament House Canberra. I am responsible for the management of building fabric related works including minor building works, carpet laying, carpentry, painting, locksmith, glazing, and stonework, building membranes and signage.

We recently utilised the services of Griffin Concepts on an office refurbishment for Senate Services. The works were required to be completed in a very condensed timeframe between Parliamentary sitting periods. Despite the restricted program and never having undertaken works in Parliament House previously, Griffin Concepts completed the refurbishment ahead of schedule and to a very high standard.

The building specifications in Parliament House are very detailed with the walls, skirting details and doorways all unique to the building. Griffin Concepts undertook the challenge and displayed a very high level of experience, professionalism and commitment to detail in their work. I would highly recommend Griffin Concepts for any building minor works.

"Richard and his team were exceptional to deal with and completed the works in a timely, professional and safe manner"

Griffin Concepts were engaged to undertaken several construction style tasks at the Australian Parliament House. Richard and his team were exceptional to deal with and completed the works in a timely, professional and safe manner in a difficult environment.

One of unusual activities was to carry out carpentry work on some of the most iconic doors in Parliament House. Richard and his team worked efficiently and their attention to detail is second to none. It has been a pleasure dealing with such a professional outfit.

"Griffin Concepts sets a high standard of quality for all sub-contracted trades on Griffin Concepts projects and will not hand over a project until that quality standard is achieved."

Mr Ali, the Director of Griffin Concepts sets a high standard of quality for all sub-contracted trades on Griffin Concepts projects and will not hand over a project until that quality standard is achieved.

"Griffin Concepts were able to deliver the project on time and budget without any safety or security concerns"

 — MAT PERKINS ( Head Project Manager (GEW), Spotless )

Griffin Concepts recently completed a project for Spotless and the Department of Defence at the Australian Defence Force Academy. The works involved refurbishment of some office, classroom, kitchenette and wet area alterations.

Given the location of the work a high emphasis is not only required for assuring the quality of the work, but also that it is carried out safely and in a secure manner. During the works Griffin Concepts were required to liaise with stakeholders, carry out works out of normal hours and respond to changes at short notice all while the building was occupied by staff members. They were able to offer alternate solutions to some of the proposals that were of mutual benefit to both Griffin Concepts and the client by way of cost saving and better quality products.

Griffin Concepts were able to deliver the project on time and budget without any safety or security concerns, this all contributed to the client being extremely happy with the way that the project was carried out and the finished product.
