Renovation Design Sydney

Renovations in Sydney are simple with Sorensen Design & Planning. The renovation process looks like this:

• Pre-design consultation & fee proposal — We’ll prioritise understanding your vision and requirements right from the start. Our pre-design consultation allows us to delve into your aspirations, exploring your desired style, functionality, and budget. Based on this comprehensive understanding, we provide a detailed fee proposal outlining the scope and associated costs, ensuring complete clarity and alignment before proceeding.
• Site inspection & measure-up — To ensure accuracy and precision in our designs, we offer thorough site inspections and measurements (when necessary). Our team conducts meticulous assessments of your property, taking into account existing structures, dimensions, and spatial considerations. This diligent approach enables us to create renovation designs that seamlessly integrate with the existing space, optimising functionality and aesthetics.
• Concept, draft & final design — With a blend of creativity and technical expertise, our team will develop a series of conceptual designs tailored to your needs. We work closely with you, presenting design options that showcase various layouts, materials, and finishes, allowing you to visualise the transformation of your space. Once a concept is selected, we proceed to create detailed drafts, refining every aspect of the design to align with your preferences.
• Development Application — Navigating the regulatory aspects of a renovation project can be daunting. We handle the Development Application (DA) process on your behalf, preparing all necessary documentation, including architectural plans, environmental impact assessments, and compliance reports. We work closely with local authorities, ensuring the DA submission meets all requirements and guidelines, facilitating a smooth approval process.
• Construction Certificate & documentation — Upon successful DA approval, we move forward with the next phase, which includes acquiring the construction certificate and preparing comprehensive documentation. Our team collaborates with structural engineers and other relevant professionals to ensure that all technical aspects of the design are addressed. This process guarantees that your renovation project meets safety regulations, building codes, and industry standards.
• Recommendations & referral of local builders or carpenters — We have established connections with a network of reputable builders and carpenters in the local area. Leveraging our industry relationships, we provide recommendations and referrals based on the specific requirements of your project.
• An open line of communication — We value open communication and believe it is crucial for a successful partnership. We maintain a consistent flow of information throughout the design process, keeping you informed and engaged. Our team readily addresses your questions, provides regular progress updates, and welcomes your input and feedback.

What elements should I prioritise in my renovation design?
