PRE-DESIGN

Before we embark upon the main process, we take our time getting to know you and your needs.  We will assess where you sit in the design process and establish a brief. From this point, we can assess your additional needs, and recommend any consultants - including Bushfire Assessors, Land Surveyors, Energy Assessors, etc. You may choose to either allow us to act on your behalf or engage with the consultants yourself - the choice is yours!

  • GES Environmental Solutions - Bushfire Assessment + AWTS/Septic (if applicable)
