Quality and Value


Support The Quality of Lifestyle You Want

 Are you harbouring the thought of extending or renovating your home?


Taking the decision to design and then deliver a sizeable change to your home can be a big financial, emotional and time consuming prospect.


Make sure you have done your research before you start on your journey. I have gone through this process with clients many times and have found that there are seven very common mistakes that people make that can prove costly to correct.


We can help you eliminate these at the best time; before you begin!



7 Quality and Value - Support the Quality of Lifestyle You Want


Only an elite few can simply ask for what they want regardless of cost but even still we find that even the wealthiest of client still wants to see value achieved.


By spending time with your architect you can determine what level of quality and finishing is right for you.


Be as detailed as possible with your demands as this process will minimise any disappointments later.


Prices can vary massively on relatively minor details so prioritising your spend is equally important. Decide on just what aspects of the build are most important to you, where you want only the best materials and where function is more valuable than form. Don’t forget plenty of storage?


Most would invest additional funds in elements they can see and touch readily eg bathrooms and kitchens? Are there alternative materials which can provide the same look and feel for a fraction of the cost? Is something that seems expensive now actually cost effective in the long run?


“It is very important that you know exactly the right level of specification so that it support the quality of lifestyle you value in all areas of your ecoluxe home.”
