Home Renovating Services in Manly West, Queensland

“We used Luke's services for an extensive renovation of our family home. Of all the industry specialists we spoke with, Luke was the only one who managed to help us clarify what the end picture could look like based on utilising available spaces and creating new flowing spaces neither we nor any other "professional" could see. Lukes capacity to share his vision didn't end at the design stage and he was exceptional at engaging the Tradesmen during construction to ensure the end result (our Family home) met our expectations and requirements. We have remained in contact with Luke ever since. He is the consummate professional and is highly recommended.”

“Just wanted to share my experience with Aman at Rogue Architects. From the initial meeting to the final design, the experience was great. Everything was smooth and easy, and the communication and professionalism was so refreshing. I had a lot of questions, and am quite particular with details. Looking back at the numerous emails, any questions I had were answered promptly and with no hesitation. Time frame was good as well, and I'm so happy with the final design for my house. Can't wait for it to be finished!”

“The Little House For 30 years I had ideas of building a small, sustainable house for my retirement and had various architects sketch conceptional plans. Atelier Chung was able to take these early ideas and transform them by reincarnating them in contemporary form and then marrying them with the environment on my plot overlooking Kedron Brook in Brisbane. The result was beyond my expectations: high functionality, energy efficiency, sound but unobtrusive security and a very contemporary award-winning look in concrete, glass and timber. Its residents feel it to be spacious and open but its footprint - a mere 45 sqm.”

“Rachel listened carefully to my needs for a custom designed house & came up with an achievable plan . She also sourced builder's who were happy to quote & build which relieved me of a lot of stress. I would highly recommend her professional & empathetic manner & would definitely work with her again if the need arose.”

“After coming to the conclusion that we needed an outdoor entertainment area, we contacted Dion and others to discuss our options. All the other people offered to come to our house to provide a free quote and consultation. Dion was the only one that charged for this service. After initially baulking at the price, we reluctantly decided to proceed with his consultation fee. We were quite nervous in paying this amount because we did not know what value Dion would provide. Even on the day that Dion was to arrive, we still had doubts whether this was the right thing to do - but we decided to have an open mind. Dion not only arrived on time but he actually talked to us and wanted to get a feel for what we did in the different parts of the house. Yes his brief was that we needed an outdoor entertainment area, but within 20 minutes of Dion's consultation, he was challenging us on that notion. His challenging questions and realistic answers shed new light on what we thought we wanted. The easy path that Dion could have taken was to agree with what we wanted. If we went down that path, Dion would have been happy but after living with the outdoor entertainment area, we would not have been. Dion instead really listened to our needs and presented ideas that went to the heart of what we wanted. His ideas were fantastic and the consultation fee was, in our eyes, a small price compared to the value that he provided. If you have any doubts on the value of this fee for service, don't. You will be amazed on what he delivers. By the way, the other people who supplied the free quotes spent as little time as they could with us and did not provide any ideas on the solution that we actually wanted.”

“Andrew was fantastic to work with, he listened deeply to our needs and really sought to find how we want to live not just focussing on an aesthetic. The flexible design of our home caters to our growing family, offering intimate sanctuaries and generous gathering spaces. Sustainability is a driving force, influencing every design element and material choice. From sun control to effective ventilation, the journey from computer thermal modelling to real-life outcomes was enlightening. Our house remains consistently comfortable. Bright, open spaces connect seamlessly to the lush courtyard, forming a beautiful dwelling immersed in nature. These elements shape our home into an oasis of calm, providing respite from the city's hustle and bustle, just moments from our doorstep.”

Refresh have been very informative and there fee's are very fair. I am happy to recommend refresh on any style of project.”

“This was an ambitious project for our family to completely raise, renovate and extend a grand old Queenslander. Kelder Architects were an excellent team to work with from the outset. We were able to work closely and collaboratively throughout the project from first design to final completion. Very happy with our new home and our collaboration with Kelder Architects. We would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone who wants a seamless design process from concept through to completion.”

“Anna is an absolute joy to work with. Not only has she held our hand in the architectural process , Anna has played a pivotal role in bringing to life our dream home. Anna expanded upon our vision to create spaces we had not considered, and carefully selected materials to suit our personality and surrounding environment. The one thing we noticed about Anna, is her careful consideration and thought processes at every stage of the project. Nothing is executed hastily. This alone proved to us, Anna is invested just as much as we are with a high quality, beautiful outcome.”

“Nicole Weston Is a pleasure to work with and is very professional in everything that she does. From concept to the completion of the design and then the completion of the project Nicole works hard with the builder / project manager to deliver the clients vision.”
