When we were contacted about a renovation and additions to our clients 1990's home in Papamoa we knew exactly what was needed. Jamie and our team have undertaken a large number of renovations this size. Using Jamie's 25 years building experience we were able to help our clients with the design process along side our designer and make sure all of the clients requirements are allowed for in the plans and pricing. This home was in need of some serious updating inside and out, so ideas were talked over and a solid plan was set moving forward to concur the design and consenting process.

Below we have listed an over view of what is going to transform this into a modern family home that is larger, warmer and dryer. This home will not show any signs of any renovation when finished, it will look brand new. 

1.  Remove the old concrete tile and replace with colour steel roofing. 

2. Addition to the rear of the garage to form a nice big media room with bar area and small bathroom for overflow of guests at Christmas.

3. Additions to the dinning, lounge and entry to make a bit more room for dinning tables, seating at the entry and coat hook area and a change to the look of the entrance to the home. 

4. Add 2 alfresco areas off the lounge, this will create new outdoor living areas as they have large decks and will also help with the homes aesthetics from the road. The alfrescos have veluxs in them to help with natural light. 

5. Replace the old single glazed joinery with new double glazed joinery and address each item and upgrade them to work better for the living areas, adding more sliders, different glass tint etc.

6. New insulation to all roof areas and walls including interior walls to also help reduce sound reverberation between rooms.

7. New wiring to switches and lights and new plumbing to all areas. This enabled our clients to position switches and lights where they want them and with 3 new bathrooms and a new Kitchen the plumbing all needed moving. 

8. New gib wall boards, plastering and painting to all areas. This also means new full height doors and new skirting and architrave, High end Fortee flooring and new carpet throughout. 

9. Adding of a brand new large kitchen from FD Kitchens. This involves removing the old entry down the left side of the home and placing a new a scullery off the kitchen in this area to create a lot more room off the kitchen and relocate the old entry to the front of the home. 

10. Remove the trusses to the front half of the house to create a 2.7m stud in the living areas as the house was 2.4m stud. 

11. New STO plaster system to the exterior at the front of the home, this has created a much superior road presence accompanied with the high roof and new alfrescos in this area. 

12. Render over some of the existing brick to create a flat finish and paint the rest of the existing brick to modernize it.

13. The media room addition will have timber weather board cladding, this room will flow out onto the large decked area and tie in with the new alfresco dinning areas at the front of the home. 

14. New tiles in the bathroom, ensuite and powder room, some full height with tiled showers in these areas. 

15. Brand new exposed aggregate drive way.
