Services

Architectural Design
Good design alone is not enough for a successful project. By providing a full suite of architectural services, combined with construction expertise, MILEHAM ensures our client’s renovation, new build and property development projects benefit from the foresight of identifying possible design issues or build challenges at an early stage, and rectifying these. With strong collaboration between our design and build teams, our client’s projects benefit from exposure to current construction costs, ensuring the design stage is kept in check with our client’s overall project budget.

With each project our clients receive:

  • Detailed, onsite consultation
  • Initial concept design with our Principal Architect, to review and discuss ahead of the detailed design phase
  • Dedicated, full time Architectural Designer for each project
  • Regular design reviews and feedback sessions
  • Management of all consultant requirements (surveyor, stormwater, engineer)
  • Management of all DA or CDC approval processes and requirements
  • Every design overseen, reviewed and approved by our Principal Architect
  • Detailed construction plans
  • Progression to construction quote (if requested)

Construction

Time, quality and cost control are the benchmarks by which MILEHAM manages our client’s projects. We work with trusted and experienced contractors and tradespersons to ensure focus is maintained on achieving the level of detail and quality finish our clients expect. We provide clarity to the construction process ensuring that expectations laid out in the design stage are carried through to completion. Consideration to time and budget, and managing these effectively and transparently, is of upmost importance to ensure a successful outcome. With dedication to realising our client’s projects through to fruition, we take pride in ensuring the process runs smoothly based on the groundwork undertaken at the design stage.

With each project our client’s receive:

  • Detailed construction quote and cost plans
  • Construction timeline
  • Dedicated, full time Project Manager
  • Quality, scheduling, and safety management
  • Subcontractor and vendor pre-qualification
  • Value engineering
  • Cost control and accounting measures and reporting

“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.”
