Our stellar reputation has been founded over our 24 years upon our attention to detail, and our ability to foster outstanding client relationships. Our experience in construction across a wide range of commercial and residential projects genuinely places us in a field of our own. We strive to lead the industry with passion and excellence, while priding ourselves on providing a specialised service that exceeds the expectations of our clients. Along with our ability to listen, recommend and adapt, our end-to-end design to construct process is what really sets us apart.
Step 1
Understand Your Needs
We make it our number 1 priority to get to know you as the client, in order to understand and provide recommendations based on your unique living situation. No project is the same as the last, so we will always take the time at the start to listen and build a relationship.
Step 2
Design & Concept
This stage is crucial in setting the tone for the project. Understanding your design and functionality needs is paramount. During this time, we work closely with you to hone in on your style and design preferences, before producing a final concept that will be used to guide the remainder of the project. It is also during this stage that we endeavour to establish the preliminary budget, and work to put any concerns you may have to rest.
Step 3
Master Planning
This is the stage where everything comes together, and your vision starts to truly come to life. We will expand on the original concept and designs to produce a more comprehensive plan, inclusive of finishes, furnishings and materials, allowing you to better envisage the completed project.
Step 4
Council Approvals
After drawings and plans are complete to scale, we will take care of the documentation required by council. This will allow us to obtain Development Approval, and begin work on your dream project!
Step 5
Selections
The selections stage is a very personal one. It will ultimately set the tone of the house, with specific finishes, styles and materials presented, with all achieving different design outcomes. We will be involved as much or as little as you would like us to be to provide our expert guidance and recommendations. To ensure a desirable, functional and aesthetically pleasing outcome, the selections stage really is one of the most important of the whole process.
Step 6
BYO Tradie
We aim to make your experience with Chris Whittaker Constructions as flexible as possible. That’s why, we are willing and able to partner with tradespeople of your choosing to ensure you have complete confidence in everyone on your site. If you do not wish to BYO tradie, we will happily engage ones with outstanding workmanship who we know will get the job done to the highest standard.
Step 7
Project Management
You will have access to a dedicated Project Manager for the entire duration of your renovation or build. They will be responsible for coordinating internal and external tradespeople, and communicating with you to guarantee complete transparency. We never underestimate the importance of preliminary planning in order to achieve a seamless process. However, it would be naive of us to say that bumps in the road aren’t inevitable, but that is when our skilled Project Managers truly shine.
