Testimonials

“I wish there were more than 5 stars to give!! We had previously engaged two other Architects before we were introduced to MILEHAM. We were reluctant to continue our design and build approach for our house due to the negative experience we had with the previous Architects. I am so grateful that we stuck to the process and engaged James and his team.

From day one, the confidence and understanding MILEHAM brought to our project was exactly what we had been looking for. They listen to your ideas and thought processes. Their ideas are practical for your stage of life, but also for where your family life may be in five or more years.

The fact that MILEHAM are also registered builders means you are not having to go between multiple contractors and suppliers, you deal with one project manager throughout.
Alex, Nick and James have an attention to detail that is second to none and you feel at ease throughout the entire process. I've already recommended James and his team to many of my friends and family who are looking to renovate and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to renovate.”

Brad - Willoughby, Sydney

“Without James and the MILEHAM team, we would never have been able to conceive and execute the Award Winning restoration of our Darling Point home. Nothing was a problem for MILEHAM, who always found creative, value accretive options to realise our vision. James has the unique ability to combine his experience as an architect with his knowledge as a builder, to develop and deliver transformative ideas. We would never start a project without MILEHAM.”

Cameron - Darling Point, Sydney

“Thank you James, Liam and all the team at MILEHAM. Your resolve, creativity and practical solutions for our very difficult DA, have made building our Garage, Studio and Lift a reality and developing our entire property feasible. We are thrilled with your design and the outstanding service you’ve provided. With Our Sincere Appreciation.”

Annabelle - Mosman, Sydney

“MILEHAM did the architectural drawings for DA submission and managed the renovation of our family home in Cremorne. We received a professional experience with efficient timeframes along with an understanding of our budget which we were able to achieve.”

Henry - Cremorne, Sydney

“I thought I knew exactly what I wanted until I spoke with James, whose suggestions opened my eyes to some design changes that turned out to be crucial in achieving overall living flow and aesthetic. His sense of proportion ensured the cabinetry sat beautifully within the new space. Execution of the plan was flawless and MILEHAM’s tradesmen were cheerful, polite and always tidied up.”

Belinda - Darling Point, Sydney

“It has been a refreshing experience working with MILEHAM who have delivered us our dream home. As a first-time renovator, MILEHAM was there for us at every point. From beginning to end, they ensured we had a good understanding of the process, kept us informed, helped us navigate council, challenged our thinking and really listened to our needs and questions. James took the time to understand our vision and added so much value to help us articulate our design goals - within our build budget. I highly recommend the MILEHAM team and will be working with them again.”

Lisa - Manly Vale, Sydney

“We engaged MILEHAM to help us renovate our family home in Riverview, Sydney. Having a clear idea of what we wanted, I was thrilled with the value, ideas and expertise James added to our brief. With CDC drawings complete, we also engaged MILEHAM to project manage the renovations from start to finish.”

Catherine - Riverview, Sydney

“MILEHAM provided timely and efficient service relating to an extension to our home in the inner-west of Sydney, resulting in DA approval. James was excellent to deal with - professional, obliging and always quick to respond.”

Cheryl - Leichhardt, Sydney

“We worked with MILEHAM on plans to double the footprint of our heritage-listed cottage in Sydney. From the get go James was at the same time visionary, collaborative and humble which is a rare combination in an architect. His background as a builder meant his suggestions were always grounded in reality (and our budget) and yet the outcome was a stunning interpretation of our intent. He took the time to really understand the nuances of our specific requirements (kitchen-sized butlers pantry, sunken lounge, open fireplace, study) and also brought brilliant ideas of his own to elevate the design beyond what we thought was possible.”

Kate - Hunters Hill, Sydney
