This project was originally was a typical older Beachlands bach. It had created many great memories over the years but it was now time to evolve it into a modern family home. Working with the design provided by the owners and some clever architectural plans, we added on a new split level entry foyer leading to a master bedroom with ensuite and walk in wardrobe. We suggested and installed native timber overlay on the stairs to tie in with the original Matai flooring, blending the old with the new. The exterior was fully reclad with new double glazed joinery. We worked with the clients and had design input into certain features such as the classic window facings and scribers to retain some of the original look of the home. The interior was fully stripped, insulated and re gibbed to create a comfortable, warm family atmosphere. We also added a large deck out the front allowing for indoor outdoor flow to the barbeque area with access from the driveway. CONTACT US

“I engaged Gareth Price and the team from Homing Instincts to undertake an extensive renovation in Beachlands including adding a master bedroom and walk-in wardrobe, new deck, 2 bathrooms and reconfiguring the lounge and kitchen space to make it open plan. Having used his services in the past for other smaller projects around the house and knowing he had a good reputation in the area, he was naturally the first person I thought of when it came time for a larger project. Gareth is professional and approachable and I have always been exceptionally happy with the level of workmanship he provides. His team are friendly and reliable and I have no hesitation in trusting them to get on with the job, even when I’m not there. Nothing is too much trouble for him, often going above and beyond my expectations to make sure my requirements are met. He’s always happy to listen to my thoughts and ideas, implement them in the design with his own creative flair and accommodate last minute changes. The care and thought he puts into each project is evident. He project manages from start to finish and it’s comforting to know he has a trusted crew of not only staff members, but local sub-contractors he can rely on to complete the job to a high standard. I would highly recommend engaging Gareth and his team for any renovation or addition project and would be happy to provide further information if required.”
