Building and renovating can be stressful at the best of times, poor planning, budget blowouts, timeline overruns and working with someone who is unresponsive or doesn’t communicate will only add to that stressful experience.
It doesn’t have to be, if you choose the right builder and team then it can be a seamless and enjoyable experience. See what past clients have said about Glenn and the team.

BAYSIDE SUBURB​

With our proven 7-step framework, K2 Homes delivered John and Philippa’s architectural renovation in the Bayside suburb of Brighton. We brought an old and shabby 1980’s brick veneer shell into the modern era. We gave it a complete face-lift and huge street appeal, which also improved the properties re-sale value. John and Philippa have fallen in love again with the fresh new look of their family home.
​
The newly constructed front fence clad in beautiful horizontal double step profile cedar cladding gave John and Philippa added privacy and security. Behind the fence, the new paved walkway is framed by massive spotted gum beams that draw you into the new raised front entrance and continuing through the front door 
onto the newly constructed deck area that has created a quiet and private outdoor space for the family to host and enjoy dinner parties.

In keeping with the face-lift, we have installed new windows upstairs and replaced the old lining board cladding with foam and render complementing the different cladding systems with contrast in colour and texture. Scyon matrix in brick bond panels now cover the entire front façade downstairs. A new expanded driveway and a new garage door have brought this old family home to life and created a home that John and Philippa take pride in coming home to.

​​Here is John and Philippa had to say when we handed over the project:

John & Philippa

​“We just feel so much happier coming into the house, it’s just made such a difference to the way we live in the house”

“We could see he was very well organised and that takes away a lot of the stress”

“the workers he used were very pleasant, there was no problem with any of them, I felt safe”

“if things needed to be done which weren’t in the original plan Glenn always came to us and I knew what the cost was going to be before we gave the ok, that meant the end cost wasn’t a surprise”

“When there were problems, Glenn came and talked to us and we managed to resolve them before it became an issue timeline wise so it didn’t cause a problem at the end” 

​SOUTH YARRA
​
This South Yarra apartment renovation was not a typical project that we have taken on in the past, but as it came from a referral and the clients values aligned with ours, we happily accepted.
​
While not being a highly spec’d job, this project required strong project management and a clear understanding of the client’s needs and budget.

Being the top floor apartment in a building with a Body Corporate, communication and time management were crucial in being able to allow trades to do their work with minimal disruptions to the building’s residents.

Excellent job scheduling, constant communication, and our trusted professionals allowed for a very satisfied client.
