Hi Michael,Thank you RFT Solutions! Great design ideas for our home extension - thank you Diane. Thank you for listening to our many ideas even though they were not the best, but at least you gave us the opportunity to test them. The drafting and 3D images were superb and exactly what we wanted. Michael - your communication and time management was outstanding. Very glad you kept a watchful eye on our budget! We know - the tender service saved us $49,328!! We are happy to recommend RFT Solutions and would have no hesitation in using them again. Thank you again,Michael Oakleigh South.Victoriaread more

Hi MichaelThanks again for the great design and tender process to obtain builders quotes for our home extension in Brighton. Your professional demeanour working with council and the building surveyor was a great help.You were correct about the tender process where some builders refused to take part because they knew their quotes would be too high. The builder who won the tender was fantastic and we saved. Money well spent.Thanks again and we are happy to offer RFT Solutions our referral anytime.RegardsRob S - Brighton Vicread more

RFT was extremely helpful during the planning and drafting stage, including dealing with council and acting as a mediator with difficult neighbours. The initial costing estimate proved to be helpful and accurate. These costings helped us scope the renovation to our needs and within budget. Michael and the team were receptive to our concerns and were able to help us when we were lost in the process.We have already recommended your company to friends who have taken up your services and would not hesitate recommending your services to others planning a renovation.Many thanks,Robert & Angieread more

Hi Michael & Diane,Thank you for your drafting and tender expertise on the extension and renovation in Malvern. It is an important investment for us and we had to watch our budget closely. Being able to obtain an estimate of construction costs early during design was reassuring and to have most of the builders quotes within the estimate was a great relief.Thank you Michael for sorting through the details of each builder's quote and requesting more particulars from them. You were right about the technique used by some builders to quote! RFT produced detailed documentation and I suppose that's why the project took a little longer than we expected but it was worth it in the end. We are very pleased to recommend RFT Solutions.Much thanks,Christy & Royce Dromanaread more

Hi Michael,We cannot thank you enough for the drafting and tender services provided by RFT Solutions for our home extension in Richmond.We love the design. Your building cost estimates were spot on and you dealt with council to obtain the permits. Your communications with our neighbour were what helped obtain the building permit.Could not believe the difference between builders quotes simply due to their huge profit margins but we had 2 builders within our budget to choose from and were extremely happy that we chose Scott who did a outstanding job.We highly recommend RFT solutions to anyone considering a home extension or renovation.Warmest regards,David & UliRichmondread more
