"The prototype panel construction system could have proved problematic for Kane, but the project was completed within deadline because of their attention to detail, quality control measures and a commitment to motivate all subcontractors to the end."
Cameron Lyon, Partner, Lyons Architects
Online Training Centre at the St Albans Campus of Victoria University

"Kane Constructions build projects on time and on budget, with great flair and professionalism, and I would have no hesitation in recommending them."
Ronald J Walker AO CBE, Chairman, Australian Grand Prix Corporation

"Taking a proactive role in a "project collective" of key project stakeholders, Kanes involvement and innovative problem solving methods were instrumental in the resolution of problems associated with vague archival documentation for the original building."
Steve Curnow, Project Director, Sinclair Knight Mertz
Commonwealth Building 4 Treasury Place Melbourne

"Kane, in partnership with the Irwin Alsop Group, delivered a design and construct solution for the Australian Head of Mission in Islamablad, Pakistan. The project presented major logistical complexities, a harsh climate, communication and distance problems and a quite different business and political environment. Unusual contingencies required equally unusual solutions. Despite 45C heat, rockets overhead and rudimentary construction methods the standard of workmanship was outstanding."
John Alsop, Managing Partner, Irwin Alsop Group

"We worked with a large group of consultants, international façade engineering and timber technology specialists and advisors to develop a new method of construction that incorporates an environmentally responsive timber façade system. Kanes people proved to be valuable and knowledgeable team members providing technical and logistical problem solving solutions throughout construction."

"The job went particularly well and full credit must go to the Kane Project and Site Manager and their support team. I could not take away from the way it was handled."

"The sheer size of the concept of the hostel and nursing home operating under one roof presented a challenge. From the beginning the programme was critical and the way Kane tackled the job, maintaining schedule in spite of bad weather was excellent."
Brett Somerville, Architect, Thomson Adsett & Partners
95 bed hostel/nursing home Waverley Council, Melbourne

"I have nothing but praise for the care Kane put into this job; the quality of their work was excellent and everything one required of the project manager was handled well. There were never any problems whatsoever. The repair to the Oregon ring beam on which the dome sits was a real challenge; it was worn away to 75% of its size in places. Where this erosion had occurred, it was replaced by steel and concrete and another steel beam placed on top; it was quite an engineering feat to get it up and in place. I cannot speak highly enough of the way Kane operated throughout this project."

"We enjoy a good relationship with Kane and there have not been any problems. In particular, communications have been good, something we have not always had with other builders. Projects have proceeded with minimum disruption to our activities and I would be happy to use their services again."
John Trembath, Director, Building and Development Branch, Monash University

"Kane are good builders. We are delighted with their professional approach and meeting their stated objectives of completing projects on time and on budget."
Bill Henning, Director, Irwin Alsop Group

"Given the nature of this unique project and many unforeseen conditions, restraints and problems, the Kane team managed these challenges successfully through a high level of flexibility and adaptability."
