Griffith, ACT
Our 1960s weatherboard home had seen a few renovations/extensions in its time and was in desperate need of an experienced builder to realise its potential. We contacted Drewaire for a quote based on professional recommendations.
From our initial meeting we knew Andrew ran a slick operation, providing information when promised and understanding and predicting our needs at every step. Given this was our first renovation, we were apprehensive of being taken for a ride. Our decision to choose Drewaire proved easy. Andrew’s personable and hands-on approach along with his knack for explaining the process in simple terms quickly instilled confidence and built a strong professional relationship.
Being a small operator, and specialist in niche builds and traditional homes, we knew he could deliver the quality and personal touch we were after. We’ve never once regretted our decision. Andrew was comfortable with us continuing to live in the house during the renovation. The work schedule was surprisingly accommodating with the bonus of observing firsthand the quality of his work. Andrew’s consultative approach meant there were no nasty surprises and the project was delivered ahead of time and on budget.
Everything was project-managed effortlessly and with precision. We were impressed that our work site was, unlike other sites on our street, always tidy and never held up by lengthy delays. Meanwhile, Anna worked efficiently behind the scenes keeping the administration in tip-top shape. We could rely on her to quickly respond to any email and phone call, again making the process seamless.
The result is absolutely stunning and it has certainly achieved the ‘wow factor’ we’d hoped for. We could not be happier and more proud of our amazing master bedroom, ensuite and boudoir. We have thoroughly enjoyed working with Andrew, Anna and the team and plan to continue with Drewaire when we progress to the next stage of our renovation.
