The Council Approval Experts and their design team have been of great assistance, they have provided very timely and professional advice and responses. And their quality of work is outstanding.
DA for Demolition of the Existing Dwelling and a new Boarding House
A truly genuine design team. Easy to work with. You have the expertise and humbleness to tackle tough tasks with ease. Definitely recommended
Alterations and Additions to Existing Building
Thank you so much for all your hard work. My family and I are just so excited to see all the plans. I really don’t know how to express my sincere gratitude enough! I’m so impressed with it all and just love your idea for the kitchen layout upstairs. It’s funny how you envision things differently then see an alternate and wonder how you couldn’t see that way before.

Thanks for sending those drawings through – it looks great. Appreciate the quality.
