Home Additions Services in Burleigh Waters, 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.”

“It was a delight working with Brett. Beyond his fabulous architectural skills, he helped us develop a clear vision of the renovation and how to achieve it. And because Brett is so down to earth and relaxed, the process was an absolute pleasure. We love what we've achieved and are super- happy that we chose Burleigh Beach Designs.”

“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.”

“Today, and every day, when you approach from a distance you can feel the welcome of your home’s familiar, warm glow. Everything about it reflects your personality. Your love, life, eccentricities and interests accompany you on your journey through the front door and meanderings around the rooms. The colours, ambience, sounds and familiar aromas are yours and each day your loved ones rejoice in the charm and beauty of their most intimate environment. When you are away, you long to return and, when you leave it is with considerable regret. In ten or twenty years the perfection of its design will remain as part of your spirit, enhancing the person that is you. You will be forever grateful that you chose the architect whose long hours of consultation guided you through the emergence of your most important, lifelong investment. Award winning architect Mark Walsh, principal of Lightwave, created a design that was specifically for me. Thank you, Mark”

“We hired Sam at the beginning of 2009 to do a partial renovation of an old farm house in northern New South Wales. He was very professional and when any problems arose always had a solution which was helpful when we had not renovated before. There were complexities with moving walls and re-jigging ceiling roses etc but nothing was too much trouble. We all worked with an excellent building team and together made our renovation work both inside and outside with inground tanks and a swimming pool. A very positive experience.”

“Designed a beautiful home that is in an urban environment, which has privacy and a wow factor. The design incorporates water tanks that harmonise into the environment this house has been designed not to need air-conditioning. Rob is very easy to deal with and some very insightful environmental ideas”

“From our very first contact with Wayne it was clear we had found the right person to help us achieve our goal of taking a property that many thought should have been knocked down to something that is not only beautiful but has maintained the original character of the Burleigh Heads area. Wayne was able to help us achieve all of the projects requirements which included renovating the existing apartments to a high standard and adding more space in the form of a 3 bedroom apartment to the existing building while still maintaining the beach house characteristics of the original building but in a modern form. Wayne was involved with all aspects of our project including initial design, selection, documentation, planning, building supervision and interior fit out. As with all projects challenges present along the way and none so much as when both a renovation and new build are tackled at once. At all times we were particularly impressed with Wayne's sensitivity to the current building and its location as well as his problem solving abilities and time taken to work through these with both ourselves and the builder. Nothing was ever too much trouble. A year on we are still impressed by what has been achieved as are many more who are now enjoying the property through Holiday rental. Thanks Wayne this could not have been achieved without your involvement and we hope it inspires others.”

“We hired Paul Uhlmann Architects to design our new home based in the Scenic Rim. We wanted a house that would make the most of the stunning views from our property and one that also incorporated passive solar design principles to reduce our energy consumption. We found Paul and his team easy to deal with and we are very happy with the overall design.”

“We have utilised Allison and the team at Studio 15b on more than one occasion for their interior design services. On each occasion, their designs resulted in an excellent outcome both in terms of visual amenity and value. To add to this, the design documentation was always delivered on the pre-agreed timeframe.”

“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.”
