Our Services

The Process

After our initial engagement, we would need the Site Investigation Documents and Photos mentioned below. We would be happy to meet on-site in North-West Auckland and Northland areas. If you are out of town we can set up a Zoom meeting and you can take photos and videos of your site.

After discussions around your section including any issues like Environment, Tanks, Septic’s, Slope, Trees, or Obstructions. We would then plan the positioning of your home to include any views or outlooks important to you.

We would then have a detailed Design Brief Meeting. This would entail discussions on Style, Layout, Size, Products, Exterior Cladding and of course your approximate Budget.

The first draft of plans would be presented to you or your client and discussions around likes and dislikes would create the next set of plans with those changes. Once everyone is happy we will supply the full 8-page layout plan set as per the example below.

If you like we can also recommend or work alongside your Builder/Draughtsperson to complete a specification document or discuss any features or issues surrounding the design.
