Our Design & Build Process

1. Initial Consultation

We start by understanding what you want to achieve - the style, function, scope and investment. This helps us shape a plan that suits your goals.

2. Concept & Feasibility

Our designers explore layout options, materials, and aesthetics while assessing what’s structurally possible in your home.

3. Detailed Design & Costing

Once you’re confident with the concept, we move into detailed drawings and transparent cost breakdowns so you know exactly what to expect.

4. Construction & Build

Our project management team coordinates all trades, schedules, quality checks and communication. You stay informed while we handle the hard work.

5. Completion & Handover

We walk through the finished space with you to ensure every detail meets the Refresh standard.
