Renovating your home is a major undertaking, so it’s important to know what to expect. We are committed to turning your vision into reality, and we believe the key to this is maintaining a transparent process. Our approach ensures that property owners have a clear understanding of every stage when working with our team of home renovation specialists. 

Step 1

Initial consultation and site visit  

Darrel will meet with you to discuss your renovation ideas, offer expert advice and answer any questions you may have about renovating your home. He will provide a realistic completion timeframe, suggest start dates, and step you through the process. 

Step 2

Detailed quote within 48hrs

Within two days, you’ll receive a competitive, itemised quote outlining all project costs. If you need assistance sourcing fittings and finishes, we’ll provide options for your selection. Please note: for larger projects, planning and consent may be required – which we can happily manage for you – which could extend timelines depending on the project’s size and complexity.

Step 3

Confirmation and pre-construction planning

When you’re ready to move forward with your renovation, Darrel will provide a start date and request the agreed-upon deposit. At this stage, we’ll also work with you to finalise decisions on fixtures, fittings, colours, and materials. Additionally, we’ll help you plan for any disruptions during the renovation, such as arranging portable cookers for kitchen upgrades or temporary toilet facilities for bathroom renovations.

Step 4

Project logistics

After receiving your deposit, Darrel will confirm the start date and go over the logistics, including property access, health and safety measures, and the arrival of necessary equipment like skip bins. You’ll also have the opportunity to meet our friendly team of home renovation experts. 

Step 5

Regular communication

Throughout the renovation, you can expect weekly updates from Darrel via phone and site visits. If you have any questions or concerns at any stage of the project, contact Darrel. The specialist team at NZ Renovation Company is flexible and open to making changes throughout the project, and will revise the original quote if necessary.  

Step 6

Final inspection and completion

Once your home renovation is complete, it’s time for the all-important final inspection and quality check. This is your opportunity to walk through the renovation or extension with Darrel, discuss any concerns, and request any touch-ups. Only when you are 100% satisfied will you receive the final invoice.

Additional considerations for your home renovation project 

  • For bathroom and kitchen renovations, your facilities will be unavailable for a period of time. You may need to arrange alternative solutions, such as hiring a portable toilet, shower, or temporary kitchen setup. Darrel will discuss these options with you to ensure minimal disruption to your daily routine. 
  • To allow our team to work efficiently and safely, the work area will need to be cleared before the project begins. Consider where you can move your furniture and possessions in advance to ensure a smooth start. 
  • Renovation work can be noisy and disruptive, especially if you’re working from home or have young children or pets. Planning alternative workspaces or making arrangements for pets during particularly loud phases of the project may help minimize inconvenience. 
  • For more extensive renovations, progress payments may be an option. Darrel can discuss the best approach for your budget and project scope.

In undertaking kitchen, bathroom and laundry renovations Darrel, at all times was punctual, very open in his communication and refreshingly - always stuck to his word. The quality of workmanship was 1st class, and Darrel's project management skills ensured excellent management of other trade/crafts people such that their work done in our home was also of a high standard. Darrel showed great patience even when plans changed more than once on the same day - and met the time frames agreed to and he and his team always finished the day leaving our home very tidy and safe.

Darrel and his team recently renovated the bathroom/toilet area in my '1970's' home. I found him great to work with, patient and understanding, and interpreted my vision into a reality. The work was done to a high standard and I am delighted with the finished product. I would recommend him to any of his future clients.

We have had two projects completed by NZ Renovations. Both were completed on price and on time. We were delighted with the workmanship and the transformation of our home. A great team to work that listen and produce what they say they will. We have no hesitation in recommending them.
