Energy-Efficient Homes Services in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

“Jigsaw is the reason we have such a liveable home. Having lived in many houses, we had clear ideas of what we wanted - to build an energy efficient, light-filled home that would work with us as a family. We wanted clever use of space and storage, responsible use of materials and a beautiful nurturing environment to live in. Jigsaw had the expertise to maintain a creative approach while problem-solving the many limitations of a modern build on a Heritage listed block. The combined skills of the team provided us with a very positive building experience. We continue to recommended Jigsaw, and the novelty of our new home is likely to never wear off! We are very content and proud of our home that adapts to our needs and enables us to live a comfortable family life.”

“We had the pleasure of working with Hugh Gordon Architect for a new house we are building. In the brief we told Hugh everything and anything we wanted to include, expecting Hugh to tell us that some of what we wanted wasn't possible. In fact, Hugh responded with "anything is possible!" He and his team were great to work with.”

“We chose Laggner Constructions to re-build our old deck and to construct a new metal pergola over it. Steve was easy to work with, communication was seamless, the work was of a high quality, and we appreciated his attention to detail. We are very happy with the result and would recommend Steve and his team to others.”

“Dealing wit Studio56 was an absolute breeze. I must admit that I was the customer from hell who was always changing things. However Cristian and his team was extremely patient with me. They are always available to see me to discuss things about my plan and always did it with a smile. It took me a long time to finalise my plan and Cirstian never rushed me. He allowed me time to think about things and suggested great things to improve the house. I would definitely use Studio 56 again and will 100% recommend them to people.”

“Prior to engaging the services of Plan It Green, our outdoor deck/entertaining area was looking tired and dated. We wanted to resolve this problem and have a deck that was more spacious, functional, aesthetically pleasing and utilised energy efficient building products. It was also important that it flowed from the existing home thus creating a seamless and incorporative feel.There were no real concerns before commencing the project aside from relocating a few established plants. The outcome from the completed project has exceeded our expectations. The new deck has enhanced greatly our outdoor living no matter what season it may be. It has contributed to our lifestyle as it offers another functional space that can be enjoyed on a daily basis. Angela Knock of Plan It Green understood completely all aspects of the brief and our collaboration with her was nothing short of perfect. Her engagement was professional and thorough, she met time frames and sourced appropriate building products and offered sound reasoning and knowledge throughout. We would highly recommend her to anyone wishing to undertake a building project. The end result is that we have a beautiful, functional extension to our everyday living that has undoubtedly added value to our home but, more importantly, to our lives.”

“Allan Spira Architects designed us a beautiful airy eco-friendly four bedroom contemporary cottage in Canberra and helped us manage construction over a 12 month period with a limited budget. We also utilised the company's interior design expertise. We were grateful for the warm and flexible approach to design and in depth local knowledge - it helped produce the bespoke responsible home we dreamed about.”

“We found Michael to be excellent. He was easy to work with and challenged us on our design. He was able to draw out why we had chosen certain elements and then proposed alternatives that enhanced many components of our build. We found him very generous with his outstanding knowledge, down to earth and very obliging. What a nice guy. Thank you Michael.”

“Keir designed our ensuite turning it from a turquoise and gold plastic 1980s horror into a soothing spa-like and beautiful room. The whole process was painless and enjoyable.”

“As the owner of Chapman Built Luke was very much on deck and in-tune every step of the way for our major renovation which included a small extension. His attention to detail is extraordinary and we are very happy with the finish. Nothing was too much trouble and our ideas and concerns were always listened to. Luke proposed some cost saving and design changes from the architects drawings which was much appreciated. Carpenters Adam and Dave were outstanding, very respectful and fun. They were excellent problem solvers and totally reliable. Ours was a 5 month build which finished on time. Even now our home is finished Luke has assisted us with a few minor issues. Our satisfaction with the work is obviously important to him. This was the first time we had done anything like this and we would recommend Luke and his team to anyone else contemplating either building a new home or doing a renovation.”

“I have worked with Tony Pike and his team on countless projects in my capacity as sales manager for a building company. I can't speak highly enough of the level of service and quality of work produced over the years.”
