“I was recommended to contract Cameron Bell of Belcro Group for all elements of my project- an extensive house renovation , and extension with landscaping ,in the coastal location of Lorne. Right from the very first meeting I was impressed by Cam’s easy going nature ‘can do’ approach and extremely positive attitude. The range of professional services provided by Belcro Group was perfect for my project- due to neatly encompassing all realms of the planning, designing, renovation and building process. Starting with a features survey - followed by renovation advice, then planning and building applications to, and meetings with council ,a detailed extension and landscaping design including impressive fly through 3D video link simulating walking through the house and garden. There was nothing that Cam couldn’t do! Literally all elements of the sometimes confusing and tricky business of building and renovating are very professionally and efficiently managed by Belcro Group, and in a price competitive manner. The very high standard of plans , drawings and design innovations delivered time efficiently make Belcro an outstanding choice for any prospective client seeking assistance for a small or large scale residential and even commercial project. I highly recommend Cam from Belcro to support your building project, as he is extremely personable, a great listener, and a very possibilities oriented person-Cam ensures the sometimes challenging process of project managing is made easy and fun.”

“I am currently working with Matthew Duignan at Mesh Design and find them to be highly professional and very attentive to detail. His team is always there to help and be of assistance with all the details. I highly recommend Matthew and his team at Mesh design.”

“I have had the privilege of working alongside Emily Nair of i.Balter Design on a number of construction projects. Emily’s most valuable qualities are her attention to detail, her meticulousness with her drawings and her calm and efficient approach. She has a warm and respectful manner with clients and is highly approachable. Emily’s ability to cater for the specific needs of her clients is outstanding. She is a great listener and is able to individualise her designs to suit the lifestyles of the people she designs for. She is highly organised and takes the stress away from the challenging and somewhat tedious tasks of obtaining permits and liaising with Council. I have received terrific feedback from many happy clients about Emily’s professionalism. From a builder’s perspective, Emily’s plans are highly detailed and accurate. She is very knowledgeable with her understanding of construction, therefore making required changes to plans easily and quickly. Emily has planned extremely complex designs to difficult existing structures, such as her new extension to a severely dilapidated 1850’s homestead in Ivanhoe East. Her design resulted in a seamless addition to a historical Melbourne home; flawlessly unifying the beauty of yesteryear with the practicalities of today. I have recommended i.Balter Design to many of my clients and I will continue to do so. Emily is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working alongside her on many other future projects.”

“In a time of great distress following a destructive bushfire at Wye River it was of enormous comfort to have Guy on my side . He has been supportive personally and professionally producing an excellent design for my replacement home keeping me informed and addressing the frequent difficulties arising from a difficult site and restrictive new regulations”

“We were so thrilled with Sam from SawMill Designs and the work he did on our renovation design. We had a very small cottage and he designed a beautiful family home with everything we could’ve hoped for plus things we didn’t even realise we wanted. Sam’s attention detail, dedication and integrity was admirable and most appreciated. He is very knowledgeable and highly skilled within the building design space, so we knew we were in good hands. We loved working with him and highly recommend SawMill Designs.”

“Positive Footprints have done an outstanding job from the design stage right through to the building process. The house is on a small inner city block, with heritage and overlooking restrictions. My brief was for a sustainable house, with flexible spaces, outdoor vistas; which was light filled and capitalized on its northern sunny orientation. Extending only two meters kept the garden as large as possible. Three upstairs decks increase outdoor living, cross ventilation and the vistas of sky. Positive Footprints were professional, open and helpful; and provided impeccable craftsmanship. They enabled me to incorporate my mosaic tile designs, the use of unusual materials and other personal interior design choices. A melding of their inspired, sustainable design and my creative input, has resulted in a beautiful and comfortable house which is a pleasure to live in.”

“Steven Colakidis is the best and I would highly recommend him. Steven was able to take our design and give us everything we wanted and more. he was always available to discus changes and always made my husband and I feel confident that we were getting what we wonted. he has designed our dream home!! Thank you Steven :)”
