Michael and Trevor were great to work with and provided expert guidance for our extension work. Through the process we found that builder that was professional and competitive in pricing compared to the many quotes we tried to source ourselves.Thanks again!CheersChing

Michael proved a very valuable resource through our renovation project, not only providing us with contacts for high quality builders to quote on our project, but also guiding us through the process of assessment. He provided us with really good questions to consider that resulted in us being really satisfied that our choices were the best for us. Very happy to highly recommend RFT solutions to anyone undertaking a building project.

After 7 years of getting no real progress with Council due to Heritage and going around in circles we contacted RFT in 2019 and Michael together with Trevor have navigated an impossible path for us including Covid, neighbour Objections and the Building and Material storm. Unforeseen challenges still arise but Michael has continued to offer advice, support and solutions. Paula and I are most appreciative of his overall service and professionalism.

RFT Solutions did a tremendous job of helping us with our partial demolition and extension project for our home. Trevor was very helpful in working with us whilst we fine tuned our design and layout, assisting us as we made variations to our drawings until we were satisfied with the outcome. Michael was very proactive in answering our queries and very prompt when applications, quotes or informational requests needed to be attended to. The team was very professional throughout and I would highly recommend their services to anyone needing to navigate the minefield of planning or building permits.Thanks Michael and Trevor for a job well done!

I couldn't recommend the RFT team more highly. The renovations I've been dealing with are quite challenging because they involve repurposing most of my house, but Michael and Trevor have found ways of making the renovations that more than meet my expectations.

Michael and his team put in a great effort during trying COVID affected times. They helped us refine our design and navigate a complex and potentially trouble laden process. His team helped us settle on a design, meet approvals, and prepare a contract. Michael showed boundless energy and patience throughout our time together and assisted us every step of the way. He has an in-depth knowledge of the building industry and an honest and straightforward approach to all he works on. He is patient and an excellent communicator. We couldn’t recommend him more highly.

We have been working with Michael and Trevor on a major renovation to our Heritage listed Californian Bungalow. Both Michael and Trevor led us through each step including council approvals. They also worked very well with our interior designer in getting us to the point of building. We engaged Michael to also tender for builders which resulted in substantial savings and we are very happy with the result. The savings in tendering more than offset the costs.I would recommend RFT to anyone looking to engage a company to lead them through a build or renovation.

Michael and Trevor helped us with the design, permits and tender for our extension. We are now mid-build and have been very happy with the whole process. It feels like it has gone very smoothly and with a lot less stress than I expected. Trevor provided us with a design we liked and worked with the three planning overlays on our property. He was very patient with our many revisions and mind changes along the way. Getting the planning permit took a long time (thanks Darebin Council!) but was all handled by RFT. Having the estimator to make sure we were getting permits for something we could actually afford to build was excellent. Michael has held our hand throughout the whole process and was always ready to answer questions and explain things which was wonderful and very reassuring. The tender process and the builders recommended by RFT were great and we have been very happy so far with Kerry the builder and with the quotes we received. Michael looked through the contract for us before we signed which was also very helpful. Would definitely recommend RFT to others.

Thanks to Michael and the team for making the process of adding space to our home so easy. A big thanks also for being so patient over the journey with the multitude of disruptions that have intervened. We couldn't be happier with the result and would definitely recommend your services to anyone else who is looking for someone to design and project manage a house extension project. All the best, Julian and Tam
