Martin and Jasmine Armstrong
We initially used another building design firm to prepare plans and documentation for council submission to obtain a DA/CC for the construction of our home. Due to a change in circumstances we needed to re-work the design and submit an amended DA/CC prior to commencing construction.
At this stage we were introduced to Jamie Harris Building Design and we literally went “back to the drawing board”. At the time it felt like we would be wasting a lot of time and money to start the design process again, but we are so glad that we did. From the first meeting with Jamie Harris we knew that we were going to get a quality outcome. Even though we already had a firm design concept, Jamie was able to provide fresh ideas that would help us to meet our budget constraints without compromising the overall ‘feel’ that we were trying to achieve.
From the initial preliminary design drawings to the final set of working plans, the things that made Harris Building Design Services compare favourably to our previous experience were; the level of communication and service, the responsiveness in turnaround times, the quality and detail of drawings, and the competitiveness of their fee structure. Jamie also liaised with council on our behalf in order to get the amended DA/CC approved.
Our home is now under construction and we can clearly see the benefit of Jamie’s knowledge and experience being reflected in our design. We can’t wait for construction to be finished and to see photos of the final product displayed in the Jamie Harris Building Design gallery.
