Energy-Efficient Homes Services in Margaret River, Western Australia

“While the owner and general manager at Gransden Construction we had the experience of working with many top flight architects based in both WA and interstate. In my view Suzie and her team are right up there with the best of them. Suzie has the good sense to understand that a project works beat when everyone works collaboratively to achieve the best results. She loves to use high quality products and produces a design that endures, one that cannot be pigeonholed into a particular era or category. We worked on two large projects over these last few years one in Bedfordale and one in Dalkeith. Both homes are stunners but not in a conventional way. It was obvious to me as a builder that our trades and suppliers "lifted their game" when working on these houses, we all enjoyed and relished using the materials and of course the design. We all realized very quickly that we were working on something special. The result? A raft of awards for both architect and builder including HIA WA Home of the Year 2014, Australian Home of the Year 2015 as well as the HIA National People's Choice Award. Suzie went on to win several architectural awards including a finalist in a international award.”

“Extremely happy with the outcome of a brick extension and outdoor pergola added onto my fibreboard home. Bathroom n kitchen gutted and redone. Being an older home there were unforeseen issues that were dealt with professionally.”

“We appointed Lurie Concepts to design a new home in Brabham that meets the three critical elements we think are successful to building residential homes that appeal to everyday Australians - family functionality, accessible pricing and inspirational design. Lurie Concepts understood the brief clearly but also pushed us to ensure we delivered a project that stood out from the crowd. The end result was exactly what we wanted, with the home commended for it's street appeal, space and light. Since completion we have worked closely with Lurie Concepts to extend the thinking that went into the Brabham project to design a range of 6 further homes - all of which challenge the status quo with project building in WA. They've met our brief by thinking outside the square - a rare find.”

“Highly recommended. Stuart has been absolutely fantastic with his ideas, drive and attention to detail. His extreme professionalism and commitment to work in our favour is a credit to him.”

“Teresa Bam started in one room and we were so impressed we asked her redecorated our entire home. Each space is an individual masterpiece of function, beauty and comfort. Teresa listened, interpreted our style, reused, recycled, was budget minded & able to do many practical installations herself. Her attention to detail and management of a project were exceptional. Teresa sourced quality tradespeople and co-ordinated multiple jobs/workman on site. If there was a problem with work Teresa would take care of it involving little stress on our part. Our home is now the sanctuary dreams are made of. We cannot recommend Creativity Lane enough.”

“It was a pleasure to work with Michael. He is an excellent listener, a clear communicator and very approachable. His first sketch/design met our first brief. He designed a house that we totally loved, it was interesting and exciting and a lot more than what we expected. The building site he chose on the property mean't that we could have a sustainable house that also captured the views. He has extensive knowledge of a wide range of interesting materials and products as well as samples to show. His relationships with tradesman, professionals (eg engineers, surveyors, planners etc ) and industry bodies ensured a smooth process without major delays or setbacks.”

“We are thrilled with the design TCR came up with for our renovated kitchen/scullery and outdoor area. The design has given us so much more room, it's modern, sleek and very user friendly. Dealing with Aaron was an absolute pleasure, he was happy to incorporate our ideas and Aaron was constantly on site ensuring works were being carried out as per plan. We have no hesitation in recommending TCR to anyone who is looking for young, fresh, vibrant and innovative ideas whether it be a renovation or a new home.”

“On purchasing our block of land Bluewater Building were recommended to us as possible builders. We met with them and enjoyed their professional attitudes their ideas and also their personalities... If you have to work with someone for nearly 2 years you need to get on with them. The design process was equally relaxed and they never minded changing tack if the final product was to be successful and more liveable. Once the building started the site was always clean and tidy and their subcontractors were very professional and easy to get on with. They finished the building on time and on budget the only alterations were of our own making. Building a home 200 + kilometres away is not always easy and yet we would receive regular contact and photos to keep us up to speed with progress plus photos on Facebook. We would definitely recommend Bluewater Building and, have already done so. The house itself has turned out brilliantly and we look forward to living here for many years to come.”

“We first used Dunsborough Design for an extension to an old and outdated residence, part of Yallingup Forest Resort. Ingrid did an excellent job, taking our brief and adding her ideas and considerable expertise, taking it from concept through to completion. So impressed were we that we insisted on using Dunsborough Design for our architect when building our custom home with MSky Homes - which is a large rural new build on a difficult block in Yallingup. It is Ingrid's design flare and those little gems of ideas that make all the difference. Like any good professional, her fees are well justified by the results achieved!”

“I'm a professionaI property photographer and I've had the pleasure of photographing many of Gavin's stunning homes over the years. The quality of his building is always of the highest standard and I can see the pride he takes in his work as he points out the special little extras he adds to his homes where he's clearly gone above and beyond. A couple of times I've had reason to chat with his clients and they have always had nothing but praise for the way he goes about his business. My personal dealings with him have always been throughly professional and he's quick to respond and most importantly quick to pay his invoices :-)”
