Which Of These Design Decisions Would You Like Some Extra Clarity Around?

Like many people who are thinking of building or renovating in Mandurah and it’s surrounds…

custom home design
  • Do you have some design ideas for your custom timber home or renovation and want advice from an experienced builder to make sure they are possible (or if there are better alternatives you should consider)?
  • Do you wonder if your preliminary design complements your existing home (or will look like an awkward ‘add on’), or if your new home design will make the most of your block of land?
  • Would you like clarity around how much it may cost to build your design (and if there are more efficient ways to achieve the same result)?
  • Have you been told you can’t have a design inclusion you want (and would like a second opinion from a experienced builder)?
  • Do you wonder if your home is worth renovating or if you should build new (and want unbiased advice from a builder who does both new builds and extensions)?
  • Are you concerned your architect’s design may not be practical to build (and you’d like a builder to offer suggestions while respecting the design concept)?
  • Would you like expert help to clarify your design ideas and bring them to life in a custom timber home, extension, or alteration you’ll absolutely love?

Many people in the design phase have similar thoughts and concerns. That’s why we developed a Free Creative Call – to answer your questions and help you refine your design ideas so you can feel more confident building or renovating your dream home.

How We Help You Clarify & Bring Your Custom Home Design Ideas To Life

Over the past 25 years, we’ve helped dozens of clients refine their new home, extension and alteration designs. Sometimes even small suggestions can have a big impact, like the size and positioning of windows to maximise light, or the angle of walls and height of ceilings to create a sense of space and flow (without adding significantly to the cost). 

Other times we’ve managed to catch mistakes that could be costly to fix, like the cladding clearance from the slab (which may lead to waterproofing issues and breaches of building standards).

And we can almost always help clients find ways to get better results, because…

  • We don’t force you to compromise by using pre-set designs. We like to start with a blank page and really understand the outcome you want before drawing on our 25 years of traditional “on the tools” experience to create a design that gives you everything you imagined and more.
  • We design with practicality, longevity and budget in mind, unfortunately not all designers know timber frame let alone the real world cost to construct in it. This is where our knowledge and expertise helps you get the home design you want at the most cost-effective price possible, built right and built to last.

This is how we help you to refine your ideas and bring them to life with a custom new home, extension or alteration, that you’ll absolutely love.

7 Ways We Help You Clarify And Breathe Life Into Your New Home, Extension or Alteration Design

Choosing the right design and building team to help you clarify and breathe life into your new home and renovation design. While the right team can help you get the exact home you’re dreaming of, the wrong team could…

  • Needlessly cost you thousands in inefficient building, causing construction to take weeks or even months longer
  • Miss important details that drive the price up in unnecessary variations
  • And deliver a result that leaves you disappointed and frustrated every time you notice faults that could have been avoided with a better design

Here are some of the things we do differently to help you avoid these frustrations and get a design that leads to a custom timber home, extension, or alteration you’ll absolutely love.

The Little Things That Are Important To You

This is your home. So your design needs to cater for the things you want – even if they seem small or unimportant to others. Like a little extra height to the benches so your back is comfortable. Or a slightly smaller laundry to allow for a powder room. Or extra height in the living area or more shelves in your wardrobe. These are the things you’ll be glad we helped you get right in your design.

From Concept To Completion

It’s one thing to see a design on paper. But it’s important to understand how it will look (and function) when it’s built. We’ve taken many of houses from design to delivery over the past 25 years. We’ll make sure you don’t regret a decision because you didn’t realise how different it would be in person from the plan.

Deal Directly With The Owners

From the first phone call through to final delivery, you’ll deal directly with the owners who will always answer your questions honestly, return your calls promptly, and keep you informed at every stage.

Honest, Transparent Pricing

Too many builders quote a low price to win a job but are vague on the actual inclusions. This means you don’t know what you are actually getting for the price quoted. We take the time to design carefully, quote accurately and specify in full so there are no nasty surprises.

A Design Expert Who Is Also A Master On The Tools

Many builders are really just project managers with no broad experience in design or trades. Villy was trained the old-school way to build a house from start to finish. He understands every aspect of the build and will help you optimise and implement your design in the most effective, efficient way.

Focus on Detail

Too many designs have features that are unnecessarily complicated or not detailed enough. We take the time to understand what you really want in a new home so we know what can be simplified and what needs more thought invested. We get this balance right to minimise misunderstandings and ensure we focus on what’s really important to you.
