Custom Home Services in Lonsdale, South Australia

“Hello I bought a lovely little 3 bedroom home from Peter and his family just over ago year now. I love the house and the design and believe the quality of the build was really well done. I have been renting the house for the past year and my tenant has made no complaints about anything and tells me he really enjoys living there so I can not wait to move in myself next year. I did not build with Peter therefore can not comment on the process of building a house with him but I have had lots of contact with him since buying the house and he is very easy to communicate with and responds promptly to queries or questions that I have had. He was also very passionate about the cottage and I can only imagine that he would be the very same with building any home.”

“We were very happy with the design that Michael provided. He has a particularly good knowledge of how to use existing space and we were thrilled with his ideas of how to incorporate several existing rooms into the new design. The sketches and documentation that Michael provided were very detailed and of high quality. His attention to detail was noticed by a number of builders who used the drawings to create their quotes. Michael made the early stages of our renovation process easy, by explaining each step clearly and in terms that were easy for us to understand. The costs for each stage were explained thoroughly, so that we knew which fees needed to be paid and when. He answered our endless questions with patience as well as a high level of expertise, which made us realise we had made an excellent choice. The job ended up being successful for us, because Michael listened to our responses and suggested minor changes along the way. This resulted in a refined set of drawings and we were able to choose a builder to suit our needs and within our budget. Michael’s prices are reasonable, and not as high as several designers that we considered. He put in a lot of effort to make sure we were happy with everything, and continued to check on progress as we moved forward with our selections through the builder. We would recommend Michael to anyone who needs expert design work from start to finish.”

“We hired Samalex to build a major house renovation. The renovation took 9 months, which we lived in the house while these renovations were taking place. The builder was very comprehensive, a good communicator, engaged us at every step, and gave us advice when we were unsure. He did everything we asked him too. He built a beautiful renovation, using quality materials and paying very close attention to detail. His business partner was extremely helpful with design concepts, colour selection and quick to respond to emails and phone calls. Both are nice people who are passionate about what they do and conduct themselves in a professional manner at all times. The builder put in very long a hours at times to ensure the job got done in as little time as possible.”

“Excellent translation of my concept/vision to paper. Thorough, dedicated and reliable. Also has a great understanding of layout and functionality. I would highly recommend.”

“I have highly recommended Bohdan Dorniak architects to anyone considering a new build, renovation or an addition. Bohdan and his team are very knowledgable, professional and friendly. I first met Bohdan Dorniak in 2010, when my wife and I attended an open day at the Food Forest in Gawler, South Australia. Bohdan gave a presentation on energy efficient homes and passive solar design. Then he led a tour of the many straw bale buildings and structures on the property, providing lots of useful information and answering questions. We were impressed with Bohdan and his team and in 2011 engaged Bohdan Dorniak Architects to design an extension for us. We found Bohdan very easy to work with. He listened to our wants and needs and was able to incorporate these, along with site specific and budget restraints, council requirements and many green and eco design considerations, into a chohesive design. He contributed many of his own ideas and solutions along the way, such as a compact three way bathroom design that feels spacious and has a great flow, despite a very small footprint. Bohdan and his team liaised which council, got us planning and building approval and was happy to assist with any issues as they arose throughout the building process. To summarise, we had a very positive experience building with Bohdan Dorniak architects and can highly recommend. Oscar, Adelaide Hills, SA”

“Bruce, Mark and Georgina and the team at Master Constructions Australia come highly recommended. Their customer service is first class and their workmanship is second to none. Between 2016-18 they constructed an indoor pool house, upgraded both of our bathrooms and upgraded our laundry. They resolved any issues that arose without any inconvenience to us and provided great advice on fittings and finishes. All subcontractors that they recommended were excellent and we were completely satisfied with all three jobs. We have recommended MCA to a number of other people and they have also been very pleased with the services provided.”

“Graff Design helped plan our renovations and complete building works to have a new kitchen installed and install new windows throughout the house. From initial concepts and design of the room through to organising trades to complete work we found them extremely helpful, professional, prompt and thorough. They surpassed our expectations with the quality of workmanship and made the daunting project an enjoyable and relaxed experience. We would certainly recommend them to others and will be calling them for any future projects we have. Craig & Amy Loechel”
