Our renovation process

Bathroom

Don’t stress – our structured process has been designed to complete projects on time and budget.

Refresh’s process supports a bespoke design and build: a renovation tailored to your lifestyle requirements and taste. Your local renovation consultant will manage every aspect for you - working to keep everything on track.

Step 1

Initial Consultation

The first thing your renovation consultant will want to know is what it is that you want to achieve through your home renovation. In this initial consultation, you can throw all of your ideas on the table - your consultant will then tailor them to your property and budget.

Step 2

Scoping and Feasibility

With a clear understanding of your renovation goals, your consultant can arrange for an architectural concept to be drawn up. This allows your consultant to assess whether or not your ideas are feasible, and allows you to point out any changes you would like in the design - before any work begins.

Step 3

Detailed Planning and Costing

Next, working drawings will be developed. These will take into account the engineering, structural, design and aesthetic decisions you have made. If you would like to make any further changes, now is the time to do so. From there, your consultant will present you with a fixed-quote as well as a contract.

Step 4

Build Stage

Finally, you get to witness your project transition from the page to your property! Every aspect of the build will be managed for you, allowing you to carry on with your everyday life. Your consultant will do everything in their power to keep your project on schedule so that it can be completed within a set timeframe and budget.

Step 5

Project Completion

The final stage is for your local consultant to ensure that all County and/or City documentation is completed with the local building department and you have the necessary code of compliance documentation. Congratulations – your renovation is complete!

Hotel thinking, home scale

Hotel thinking, home scale

A decade leading hotel refurbishments taught Maree to read a space the way a guest will live in it, and to treat finish quality as non-negotiable. You get that design judgement from the first conversation, without paying for a separate designer on top of the build.
Nothing left to chance

Nothing left to chance

A kitchen renovation is eight or nine trades working in sequence. We plan that sequence before anyone arrives on site, and our project app shows you each week who's on site and what's next. When something changes, you hear it from us first, along with what it means and what happens next.
A partner through every decision

A partner through every decision

Knowing which decisions can be changed later, and which ones can't, is our job. We bring you the choices that matter along with our honest view on each, and take care of the rest.

Who we work with

Short on time.

Short on time.

You know what a good outcome looks like and have no spare hours to manage one. Hand us the whole project and we'll check in with you on the decisions that matter to you.
Outgrowing your home.

Outgrowing your home.

Maybe a teenager needs their own space, or there's a baby on the way. We plan the build around the household that's still living in it, including which rooms are out of action and for how long.
Planning for the next twenty years.

Planning for the next twenty years.

A home set up for the decades ahead, with single-level living and a bathroom that stays safe as needs change without looking clinical. Our reviews and case studies show the work we've done for people making the same move.

How it works

1

Initial consultation

We meet at your home to hear how you want to live there, then give you an honest view on what's possible.

2

Scoping and feasibility

Concept designs and a realistic budget range, so you know early whether the project stacks up.

Detailed planning and costing

Working drawings, engineering and a fixed quote. We walk you through what the quote covers and what sits outside it, because that's where budgets usually creep.

4

Build

You deal with one person throughout, and the project app shows you each week who's on site. If something turns up behind a wall, we tell you straight away and agree the next step with you.

5
