Home Renovating Services in Auckland

“Renovating was such a fun project working with Natalie. It was very stressful and I couldn't (and wouldn't) have done it without her. Nothing seemed to faze her (although it was probably quite different in her reality) she never made me feel like I was asking too much of her) and was always exceptionally approachable. We are really and truly thrilled with the result.... My husband (who was a bit reluctant to use a designer initially) has acknowledged repeatedly what a wonderful job Natalie has done and he admits he underestimated how complex it was. IF I were ever to do something like this again I would book her again in a heartbeat!”

“Kate's used her professional's knowledge and experience in renovating small spaces to create a kitchen plan that makes the best use of space, is functional and looks great. The Concept design plan was innovative, beautiful and created elements that I hadn't previously considered. I'm looking forward to working with Kate to compete the renovation.”

“Over the last few years Joel and his team have assisted us with renovations on multiple rental properties including a major addition of a very large deck and bedroom to a holiday home. He handled all Council work from start through to consents. Joel also has a great ability to manage spaces and make the best of an area. We highly recommend this team.”

“Alpha 1 built our beautiful home 3 years ago and we will be leaving in a box, we absolutely love it! The architect's plan was very complex but the actual build was carried out so professionally that stress was kept to a minimum. Paul met us weekly with updates so any issues arising were resolved immediately. We would recommend Alpha 1 to anyone planning a major renovation or new build.”

“A reclad project is a job that few home-owners really want to undertake. Steve and his team were a delight to work with and transformed our house into a home we are really proud of. We get regular comments on how well the finished job looks. Steve saw the tricky issues long before we did and was able to give us appropriate recommendations for those unforeseen problems. Steve's recommendations on sub-trades, material selection and his ability to talk to us at our level made us feel that our input was always welcome. We are looking forward to working with Steve on our next project soon! Anyone that needs an honest, reliable master craftsman in charge of their project need look no further.”

“Richard designed a wonderful, stylish ,home for us. We trusted him implicitly and he delivered !!. Not only is he talented, but he is an excellent communicator and helped us with our choices down to the finest detail. Building a house is stressful, but Richard was always there to reassure us . Thanks for a wonderful process. Carole and Neil Wright Hora Hora Road Waikato”

“Four Walls Architecture designed a large contemporary home for us on a site situated in Westmere, Auckland. They carried out the conceptual design work, assisted with the resource consent application and completed the detailed design and building consent application. Our brief was quite specific in regards to the general look we were trying to achieve, the size and layout of the home, the use of low maintenance materials and a high degree of energy efficiency. The design process was a very pleasant experience and Four Walls was always open to discussing any ideas or opinions we had and incorporating them into the design accordingly. The home is currently being built and it is great seeing how the ideas are being transformed from plans and computer models to a physical form. The way it is turning out has exceeded our expectations in a number of ways and it is truly turning out to be our dream home! Four Walls has continued to be very helpful and provide assistance to both us and the builder in a timely manner during the building process. I have already recommended them to another family member who is using them for an extensive renovation in Herne Bay and would certainly not hesitate recommending them to anyone else, or to use them again.”

“We engaged Dave Georgetti and his team from Refresh Remuera to undertake a total house renovation. They were professional and personable. We are very pleased with the result and enjoying our new home. The essential value-add that Refresh provide is to guide you through the myriad of tradespeople, suppliers and decision making. All whilst keeping up the relentless momentum against a detailed project plan and budget. We challenged Dave many times with decision changes mid-project and he handled it with flexible good cheer all the way through to completion. Do not underestimate how tough it is to do by yourself. Highly recommend you reach out to Dave.”

“We were looking to renovate and extend a granny flat addition in our 1960’s home. A family member referred us to Mike Bowman as she had found him to be honest, hard working and he had done a great job on their home renovation. After our first meeting with Mike we came away with absolute confidence that he understood what we were looking to create. Mike worked with us to develop the initial design over a couple of sessions and met with us again to walk us through his detailed design. Mike managed to recreate the architectural style and features of our existing home in the new extension. Mike also helped us with the council submission and associated paperwork. The project hit a snag early on when the excavation work discovered that our foundations would need to be redesigned. Mike patiently waited in order to redraft the drawings to support our amendment to council for approval. Mike was able to provide advice when we ran into issues with Watercare and he went beyond the call of duty on a number of occasions. We would recommend Mike (and have done so) to anyone who is looking for a reliable designer with great people skills. Andy and Jo Worrall”

“Refresh were given the job of dragging a kicking and screaming 1970's brick and tile home into the 21st century. They did this, and the house now looks amazing! The renovation essentially meant a complete makeover and this was accomplished over a 3 month period. Slightly over budget, principally electrical work, but as a percentage of the total spend, only 2%. Dominic and Rebecca were ever the professionals, keeping everything on track with tradesmen and the council. Rebecca's background as a designer certainly helped and Dominic's control of the stress alleviated a lot of headaches. To Dan the builder man and his guys, well done! Nothing was ever a problem with his crew.”
