To Whom It May Concern

Fix It Building Services recently redid my bathroom.  I own a house which is approximately 90 or so years old and the bathroom, twice renovated since construction, needed a major improvement.

The time frame reasonably matched the original plan. The service was very good and the unexpected repairs I discussed with the builders were well attended to.   Matt Kerrigan was very efficient and communicated to me quickly and efficiently.

I recommend, without hesitation, Fix It Building Services.

• Moving is expensive. The real estate agent's commission and moving expenses can cost more than $20,000. And most buyers want to make changes to their new home anyway.
• Get the home you really want. If you’re happy with your home’s location, neighbours and section, it may only take a   makeover here and a tweak there, to transform a good home into a great one. Consider adding extra rooms to gain additional space, or installing French doors and a deck to open up the house to the great outdoors and create ideal indoor/outdoor flow.
• Renovating is one of the best investments there is. Apart from capturing your home’s full potential in terms of resale value, a makeover or renovation can really improve your family's lifestyle and sense of space, especially if it’s a two-bedroom house and you add another bedroom, or if you open up one side or build up to take advantage of views.

	The pros / cons of supplying your own fixtures and fittings At Fix It we’re happy to supply fixtures and fittings, or to install those supplied by you. Providing your own can save money by enabling you to take advantage of one-off specials or discounts. But it sometimes proves to be a costly option because supplying the wrong product (such as an ‘s-trap’ toilet instead of a ‘p-trap’ toilet) can hold up the job and add extra cost. We’ve also seen cases where customers buy very cheap products and end up quickly having to replace them. At Fix It we guarantee all products and materials that we supply. What’s more, our bulk-buying ability means we can often source products at excellent rates and pass on the savings to you. Feel free to contact us for objective advice and a no-obligations price if you're considering supplying your own fittings. Contact Matt or Sally on (09) 631 7106 for a no-obligations consultation.

Client testimonials

 

I have recently completed my second project with Fix It. Matt and the team listen to what you want, take all the stress away and simply deliver you the agreed outcome.

Reliability and doing what you say you will do is not so common these days so it is refreshing to work with a professional team who are. In the past I have co-ordinated trades people personally which brings complications and a lack of overall accountability.

I am happy to recommend Fix It and am taking my own advice and commissioning Fix It for my next
project very soon!

Have a fear of visitors

Tony Stowell’s bathroom used to be in such a poor state that he discouraged visitors from using it.

It was damp, mouldy, had peeling paint and, laughed Tony, “looked like a public toilet”.

Matt and the team removed the wall between the toilet and bathroom, tiled the walls and floor, and installed a new hot water system. They also built a false wall to install a new in-wall toilet system and wall-hung basin, and installed an Atlantis style shower. With millimetres to spare, it was a tight fit.

Tony was impressed with the Fix It team’s professionalism: “I learned a lot about the value of planning as much as possible before embarking on a project like this but, thanks to everyone’s patience, we got there in the end,” he says.

Tony commented that it can be risky to use previously untried tradespeople but in this case the punt paid off.

“Matt and the guys were very straight up and easy to deal with.

“They did a great job despite some challenges along the way and I’d recommend them to anyone.”

Matt and the guys were very straight up and easy to deal with.

Matt's Top Tip: How to give a good brief – and save money

Providing a clear brief at the beginning of a job will save you time, money and hassle.

Be sure your brief specifies:

• exactly what you want to achieve from the project (e.g. more space, better flow, etc.)
• budget
• timing
• what qualities you want from your builder or tradesperson (e.g. pro-active, reliable, etc.).

Think about who will project manage the job and co-ordinate tradespeople, materials, council inspections, etc. This can take a lot of time and, if poorly done, can result in unforeseen problems and budget over-runs.

Even though a good quality tradesperson will consult closely with you, a clear brief is important because it removes ambiguity.

It’s worth taking the time to think every aspect through because variations can be costly once the project begins.
