Joinery & Cabinet Makers in Tumbi Vmbi, New South Wales

“We have now used Collaroy Kitchens for three kitchens in three different houses - two in Darling Point and one in Newport. In each case they did a really excellent job. When there was a problem with the Newport kitchen design they fixed it up by rebuilding one of the cabinets. No attempt was made to argue their way out of the problem. They saw their responsibility as giving maximum customer satisfaction. This they certainly did.”

“The team did a fantastic job installing a TV unit in our lounge. They asked us lots of sensible questions up front so that they were really clear exactly what we wanted and also provided their expert opinion in a few areas, which was very helpful given our lack of knowledge when it came to joinery!”

“I, Paul Ghosn - owner of PMCG Bathrooms and Kitchens have been asked to provide a recent 'trade reference ' for the services of Gillian Pembroke, "Style by Gillian ". I have had numerous dealings with Gillian. She is often having me visit some of her clients for a quotation or advice. She seems to understand her clients wishes and respects them. If I get the job - I always offer a gratuity - for the fact the designer, or agent has referred me. Every time Gillian says "thanks Paul - no need I get paid for my design/co-ordination by the client just do your best " . We just completed a job - a pretty demanding one in a house that needed – 3 bathrooms and a laundry rebuilt in 3 weeks, plus other improvements. She found all the trades, had a calender for each of us - so we knew who we had to share the house with. Gillian was overseeing the whole thing. She chose clever ways to make my job quicker - hired a big tipster so no trips to the tip every day. I had wanted to put in frameless shower screens - but that would have added a good week - but she said no - find a good stylish rimmed one, etc. sourced the mosaic tiles for the features - beautiful but very affordable as well . The client was away a lot so Gillian was the one I had to run things by - she was on site most days. All my men had nothing but praise for how she dealt with all the headaches that come up - renovating especially when the job is squashed into 3 weeks, and kept her cool too. Each day she had a work sheet up - giving us all the ideas of what needed to be done as a priority - it helped seeing there were many other trades in the house. All this plus she was always making drinks and ensuring the boys had food. What I really noticed is how much knowledge she has on many different levels - one minute she is in the kitchen figuring out an electrical issue, or adapting the design of a cabinet that doesn't fit - next helping me decide how to make a drain work in a bathroom which had all the old plumbing in the concrete slab. I have worked with designers before - but Gillian seems to be much more than just pretty ideas. She brought in excellent painters, the construction team, electricians, plumbers, cabinetry - and as she has history with us all - we all try to do our best work. It's a win win. I really enjoy working with her on a project - she seems to be the perfect link between the client and us the trades/ builders.
