Modernising an award-winning 1930’s mansion

The challenge for Spacemaker here was to renovate this 1930s mansion, while retaining its original features and character. This was a complex project on many levels. But Spacemaker rose to the occasion with an inviting design and custom-made solutions that met the family’s unique needs.

The clients’ vision was for bold, daring design that not only reflected their personalities and creativity, but also acknowledged the home’s rich history. Spacemaker listened by ensuring original design features carried through to new elements, while adding modern touches.

CLEAN SLATE

This three-storey house had never been renovated. Spacemaker came up with a design plan that altered each of the levels, most dramatically the basement, which more than tripled in size. The result is a home (Middle Eastern themed to reflect the owners’ heritage) that’s not only striking, but practical and welcoming.

ENTERTAINMENT

As entertaining is important to the owners, Spacemaker allowed for a large, well-equipped all-weather outdoor zone, which would easily flow into the inside.

We were warned by many friends that undertaking a major renovation would be one of the most stressful times in our lives. As it happened, our experience with Spacemaker turned out to be one of the best experiences we have had. The team was superb. They were attentive, flexible and took pride in each step of the process. Renovating a house is one of the major things anyone will do, so making it a positive experience is paramount. Spacemaker was on time and on budget. Our house has exceeded expectations, winning major awards around the country. We recommend them to anyone.

5* experience from my very first meeting to discuss my family's needs for the renovation. Excellent design, clear and thorough pricing and superb trades to finish the job. No surprises that they have so many repeat customers and multiple house renovations in a single street.

Spacemaker designed and built a double storey extension to our single storey Victorian terrace home. Given the small size of the block the design and planning process was complicated, but they worked extremely hard to make sure it was appropriate and approved. Exceptional communication was demonstrated by Tim, Fiona and the team. Throughout the build Rob and then Sean worked closely with us and established a friendly, professional relationship which again made it easy to communicate. We are extremely pleased with the quality of the build and our whole family is loving living here. We highly recommend Spacemaker for your renovation, we honestly found the whole process less stressful than we expected and it was definitely worth it. We would use Spacemaker again if we were to renovate in future.

We are extremely happy with our Spacemaker Renovation several years later. This is largely due to the positive experience we had with all trades on site, their attention to detail and their communication. Spacemaker delivered a quality build on budget and in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Rob and the team at Spacemaker if you are thinking of renovating your home.

Spacemaker were an absolute pleasure to deal with. Helping our young family through an extension while we lived in it! From the design, to the project management and build we felt we were in safe hands and with genuine people who had our interest at heart first. Would recommend Shaun & team to anyone. A big shout to Shaun Chapman (our project manager) in particular who was always there to answer our questions, give us guidance/updates and always ensured we were on the right path. Couldn’t have done it better! Christmas was at our house this year :-)

Spacemaker are a great team to work with through a renovation. The whole process from planning, design, building and finishes was so much easier to navigate with their expert knowledge and experience. Issues or concerns were addressed promptly and with respectful communication. The completed work was of a very high standard. Would definitely employ this talented group again.

It is my pleasure to review Spacemaker Home Extensions as builders of high quality and integrity. From the initial quote through to the finished product, the team were approachable, willing to explore options for me, happy to give advice, and came up with alternatives for me when budget dictated. Living on the same property as the build, the builders were always unintrusive and sensitive to our needs. The quality of the finished product is outstanding, and I would thoroughly recommend Spacemaker to anyone wanting to build or renovate. Many thanks to Tim, Rob, Will, Ben and Shaun.

We are repeat Spacemaker customers for a reason - we cannot fault the integrity, capability, communication and care for their projects shown by them and their tradespeople. Travis Byrne is an exceptional project manager who not only executes and problem solves incredibly well, he looks after your project as if it's his own.

Living through a COVID renovation provided many challenges to all of us. Spacemaker, Rob and the fantastic team worked tirelessly towards the end result- Our beautifully renovated home. Thank you for the professionalism, craftsmanship, respect and incredible friendly nature of all who came into our home

Great team to work with from the designer to the project manager and all the wonderful tradespeople. We still love our “new” house nearly five years from completion. We have had almost no issues but recently some light fittings in the kitchen cabinets came adrift and the response was immediate.
