Renovations

Found a great home but needs a great deal of work?

We do amazing architectural renovations that stand the test of time. Hayden and the team have worked tirelessly to develop an amazing reputation and portfolio of work.

There is lots to consider on larger renovations

We spend a lot of time planning before starting a renovation, including accounting for the things we can not see. You get to borrow our experience for that.

Things can change quickly when renovating. Surprises often appear whether we like them or not. Resolute Construction will work with you to overcome any unexpected challenges. We pride ourselves in having strong communication, and will keep you informed throughout the process.

If you are looking for a serious renovation done seriously well – we need to talk.

We always recommend having a chat earlier rather than later to save you time & money. Fill in this form to lock in an appointment with Hayden.

"Outstanding Communication!"

- Peter

Hayden and the team at Resolute Construction were awesome.

They were professional at all times, their workmanship was of high quality and they communicated extremely well.

During the job the Covid lock down was announced but they worked hard to finish the job in time before the lock down was enforced.

Outstanding Communication!

"The end result has exceeded expectations!"

- Nellie & John

Dear Hayden,

We would like to thank you and your team for the fantastic effort and very fine result of the renovation.

Resolute Construction carried out an extensive renovation of our beach house. It ended up quite complicated due to a very poor alteration by a previous owner. Hayden did a wonderful job of project managing. Communication throughout was excellent, consulting with us every step of the way. Despite the building problems the project was completed within the deadline and to a very high standard. The sub trades Hayden engaged were excellent as well.

The end result has exceeded expectations. We are ‘over the moon’. Hayden is extremely up front and honest, all costs totally transparent. We highly recommend Hayden and his team."

Our Process

Step 1

Initial Contact

Once the online form has been filled out, someone from the Resolute Construction team will be in touch to discuss your ideas, budget, and timeline and try to get a clear picture of your requirements. If we both agree we are a good fit, we will send an email questionnaire for you to complete containing some questions that will give us some background and help us get on the same page with your vision. This will help our first meeting run smoothly. We will then book a date for our first meeting.

Step 2

Site Meeting

Our Managing Director Hayden Nation will meet you in person to discuss your lifestyle and unique vision for your home. This will also allow us to go through the questionnaire in more detail.

This meeting is a chance to bring ideas, photos, plans and any other information you might have. We will give you an insight into our build systems and processes.

We will be able to create a pathway forward by discussing timelines and general requirements and be able to move onto finding an architect. (If you already have an architect with concept plans, please move to step 4)

Step 3

Design Brief

We will put together a design brief that will outline your vision, needs and requirements. Choosing the right architect for the project is a very important step. Through our network, we will help you find and choose a suitable architect for your dream home.

The architect will design an initial set of concept plans that fits within your design brief, and you will get a better visualisation of what your dream home will look like. We can now work out any special council requirements and a scope of works.

Step 4

Preliminary Budget

At this stage we will be able to provide you with our clear terms of engagement and a sample Master Builders contract for your appraisal. Our Preliminary Budget is a proven extensive pricing and due diligence process which will help you understand the investment and timeline of the project. When the boxes have been ticked and you are happy with the design and budget, the architect can move onto the detailed drawings.

Step 5

Detailed Drawings

The architect will now have all the information to bring together the detailed drawings. Engineers and other professional services will be engaged to be part of the project. Once the plans are finished, the documents will be submitted to council to gain a building consent.

Step 6

Detailed Pricing

We can then proceed to pricing your forever home with our open book pricing policy. We will keep you up to date on the process as we engage with our highly experienced network of professional subcontractors to ensure the process is thorough, clear and accurate.

Step 7

Quote Presentation

When the quote/estimate has been finalised, we will arrange a meeting to present the quote and go through every aspect of the detailed costings. This is a perfect opportunity to ask all the tough questions, and to ensure all budget concerns are satisfied.
Upon acceptance of your quote, we will formalise and sign the contract documents and apply for your 10-year Masterbuild guarantee, and present you with a detailed timeline and program. A start date will be agreed. We will ensure all council preconstruction requirements have been satisfied.

Step 8

Meet the Team & Communication

Before construction starts, we will organise for you to meet our dedicated Site Manager, along with our friendly team of builders. We will set you up with our Resolute Construction App that will allow access to our cloud-based project management software. This means you have live access to every aspect of the build with documents, daily log reporting, daily photographs etc. This allows a consistent and transparent communication portal throughout your entire build process and helps to create a successful and STRESS-FREE building experience.

Step 9

Construction

We take over your site and start to build your new home. Once construction starts, you will:

1. Receive daily logs via our Resolute Construction Project Management App

2. Your Site Manager will provide you with weekly site reports

3. We will invite you to fortnightly site meetings with Managing Director Hayden Nation and the Site Foreman

These meetings will keep you informed as your forever home takes shape and will ensure that the project is running smoothly. It will also allow us to keep ahead of any variations you may request or changes that may be necessary.

With any variations or changes that may crop up, we will promptly update costings, budgets and timelines. We will also make sure to:

  • keep you informed through this process, so you are NOT surprised with any unforeseen costs, charges or delays
  • keep the programme reviewed through the construction process and communicate changes as they become necessary
  • work through our 300-point Quality Control Checklist as each stage progresses.

Step 10

Completion

Once Construction is complete, we will engage professional cleaners to spotlessly clean your new dream home, ready for you to take possession and move in. Even when your home is complete, we will keep in contact to attend to any minor issues that may arise. We will take care of your council compliance requirements and close off all 10-year Masterbuilders Guarantee requirements on your behalf.
