Design & Construction Firms in Manly Vale, New South Wales

“I hired Crearter Constructions for a major renovation project in late 2016. From the first point of contact the service has been exceptional. Braden, the owner, spent a great deal of time and effort compiling a quote, to the point that a number of his tradespeople viewed the house in advance of the quote to ensure that the costings were accurate. The quotes we received from other builders were made after a short visit to the house and were ball-park figures of that the build might cost.. Braden's quote was extremely detailed and it was easy to see exactly what we were paying for. The build started on time (the job before ours finished exactly when it was supposed to) and moved at an amazing speed. All trades on site were expertly managed and the quality of work at all times was above and beyond what we had expected. Braden is a perfectionist and he is perpetually assessing the work of the tradespeople and insists on a very high standard of work from his whole team. The build has moved ahead without any problems and we are due to finish ahead of schedule and on budget with a finished project that we are delighted with. Braden is a hard working, honest, inspiring, problem solving, committed builder who would do justice to any project he is in charge of. We were fearful before the start of our build, as we had heard many nightmare stories from friends of building projects that had gone wrong. But we didn't need to worry. Braden has exceeded all our expectations. From start to finish our build has been a dream, executed with brilliant precision and managed with good humour and hard work in a truly collaborative way. As far as I am aware I am the only person I know who is sad to see the build coming to an end. It has been an amazing experience for us as first time builders and we have loved every minute of it. If anyone reading this would like to see the quality of the work that Braden has achieved and to witness first hand the end product of our build we would be happy to contacted by anyone to give a personal reference. Braden is exceptional and I don't think anyone could find a better builder.”

“I hired Neil Turrell and the fabulous Brad Trethowan for a significant personal renovation project that I needed done in an eye-wateringly tight timeframe. Not only did they do it on time, they were unfailingly professional and careful, and cheerful. We all know how important it is to be cheerful when the pressure's on during a reno! I have also worked with them on a professional basis on a number of occasions, and you couldn't find a better bunch of hard-working, big hearted people.”

“Joumana Moore receives a five star review from us and it is thoroughly deserved. Joumana has provided us with a total service including planning, design, building expertise, contact to suppliers, project management and has also covered off all of the little painful jobs that go with a renovation. Joumana has always kept our budget requirements in the front of her mind and has given us every opportunity to make decisions based around our budget while also making sure we get the design we have always wanted with a high standard finish. Joumana has been very flexible where we have made changes and provided excellent advice about how to proceed and the relative cost of things. Joumana is assisted by an excellent team of professionals that help co-ordinate the renovation. Our build is on schedule and on budget and we are very grateful that Joumana has lead the project and made life so much easier for us. We still have our sanity, the build and finish we wanted and its on budget – we are very very happy with Joumana’s service and would highly recommend her to others taking on a renovation journey.”

“We have been working with Simon & Peter from Additional Concepts for almost a decade now and they have certainly mastered reliability, consistency and top notch workmanship! We frequently deal with their customers and the common denominator among all their clients is the satisfaction and peace of mind they share. If you're doing extensions, new builds or renovations, then we can not recommend Additional Concepts enough, they are professional, honest, have excellent work ethic and importantly, are extremely friendly and fun to work with.”

“We have sought our Cherel's opinion and designs on a number of occasions not only for our residential home in Sydney but also a property overseas. She has always been interested in our thoughts and takes time to know our taste. To this she adds her colours, designs and realism to create our vision and unique and practical result. She ensures that the result is distinctive, practical and stands the test of time as all our projects have proven. She also allows for discussion and is always happy to amend her work to fit in with our expectations. In other words approachable and enthusiastic. Her team is exemplary and co-operative. She handles the project efficiently and is good at communication. We would always seek her advice before embarking on a major development.”

“The team at Blue Frog Studio were fantastic. We had a small bathroom and laundry area that hadn’t been touched since the 80s and were in urgent need of an overhaul. Blue Frog Studio was able to come up with a clever design that made smart use of the space and transformed them into modern looking masterpieces. They also helped us with colour and tile selections, custom cabinetry, bench tops and fittings. It’s hard to believe that it’s the same place!! Job was completed on time and in budget Thanks team - amazing!”
