Renovation Makeover - Vanessa Crescent banner

Project scope

This two-storey home renovation lacked street appeal, not to mention it was missing out a million dollar harbour views. With the addition of a cantilever deck, and by going up another level, this renovation in Glendowie transformed the house giving it 180 ° harbour views. The exterior presentation of the house was given a make-over, giving it a modern but classical look.

Key design features

Cutting back the roof and installing a pop-top (extra level). The foundations were strengthened with structural steel to take the extra weight. Working closely with the architects we were able to transform the entrance of the house, making it appear very grand with tall pillars and changing the roof line.

Main challenges

Working alongside the engineer to strengthen the foundations using steel framing to withstand the extra weight of the additional level on top of the house. End result being 9 metres in the air with ocean views. From consent, structural support, building and inspections, the entire project was completed in 4 months.

PBMC - Dedicated residential home builders

PBMC offer a dedicated residential building service to our customers to a level that most other new home builders won’t.

While we work on building your house or renovation project, we won’t work on anything else!

From the planning and estimating stage to building and project management of your new home building or house renovation, we put the time in every day, so that we can be there for you each step of the way.

House renovation or new home construction: our difference is in the detail

PPMC work closely alongside you to ensure your house plans and project specifications are in line with your budget and still achieve a high level of finish that is all you imagined it to be and more.

What we do best:

Since its inception, PBMC has excelled at the kind of projects that are quite complex and involve a fair amount of design and collaboration between the client, architect, and builder. As a job progresses various decisions and adjustment need to be made, often with the potential to either disrupt the construction schedule or even compromise the quality of the completed project.

Our experience confirms that a key to achieving a great result is maintaining close communication between these three. As a consequence we prefer to accept projects where the ability to communicate effectively creates additional value and where our experience is likely to make a significant difference.

Kieran Wilson of PBMC Ltd takes a unique and personal approach to each project.

“For me building is all about craftsmanship, which translates across to excellence in everything we do; from pricing to communication to planning and managing the building process to ensure every task is done to the highest standard, from start to finish.”— Kieran Wilson

Our values and why they matter:

Our core values at PBMC are the principles that guide how our team operates on a daily basis, how they make decisions in the course of their work, what they take pride in, and ultimately the quality of the finished project.

  • Integrity – we do what we say
  • Commitment – to exceptional quality
  • Teamwork – supporting each other
  • Communication – keeping the team informed
  • Excellence – in everything we undertake

We ensure that the subcontractors that we work with have similar values to ours. This helps to foster the same teamwork that we value inside our company, which helps ensure the success of our projects.
