Background and testimonials

Background

I have a Masters in Civil Engineering, a Carpenters License and Builders License for both Queensland and NSW and more than 12 years of construction industry experience.

Originally from France, I spent several years as a Project Engineer working on large building projects before immigrating to Australia in 2006. Upon arrival in Australia I worked for Freyssinet Australia for four years before joining John Holland, one of Australia’s largest and most diverse construction contractors. During this time I also worked on a number of Private housing projects of which you can find further detail on our Projects Page.

I have gained extensive experience on complex civil infrastructure projects, including the West Gate Bridge Strengthening in Melbourne, Airport Link in Brisbane and most recently the New Farm Riverwalk Replacement Project in Brisbane.

My civil engineering experience, combined with my building construction delivery background, enables me to better understand constructability issues, ensuring a design that will achieve ease of construction, without adding cost or time through temporary works or complex detailing.


Testimonials

We could not recommend Aurelien Berson highly enough for the job he did as the builder of our new house build in Bulimba, Queensland in 2011. We personally sought out his services after viewing a property he had already completed in the area.

Throughout the project, Aurelien’s cost estimate remained accurate. In fact, on more than one item, the cost decreased due to his tireless negotiation with suppliers, displaying the utmost loyalty to his client. His excellent record keeping and constant communication left us with a complete sense of ease.

His keen attention to detail was an invaluable asset in terms of design ideas both internal and external to the house.

His appointed team of tradesmen were professional and completed the project on time and within budget.
We wish Aurelien all the best in future projects and would not hesitate to use his services again.

Thanks to Aurelien Berson Construction. We have just finished a rather difficult build in Bulimba and before we started I had heard of all the horror stories about building a new house.

Well, the whole process from planning to construction and finally moving in was programmed and run very professionally from Aurelien.

Obviously there were hiccups along the way, but Aurelien was a very good organiser and everything was taking care of immediately.

I would recommend Aurelien to everybody that is looking to build. He was a pleasure to work with and we are very happy with the end result. Thanks Aurelien Berson Construction
