We wanted someone we could trust and Hayden from Sentinel Homes, Wellington was very open and transparent right from the start.

Having Sentinel owned by a husband / wife team also felt like you got that extra bit of care as a family owned business. The quality and finish of the home is great. We knew we'd get a quality build from Sentinel and they didn't disappoint!

Sentinel homeowner
We find building our home with them was one of the best decisions we made. Everyone who visits us comments on the finishing and workmanship. That says a lot. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

We knocked down and rebuilt with Sentinel — best decision we ever made. The new home fits our family perfectly.
