“James project managed the renovation of our bathroom and laundry. He worked extremely hard (including working some Saturdays and Sundays) to make sure it was all finished on time. With so many different trades involved he did a great job keeping us up to date with expected time-frames and what the next step was. James was meticulous in every detail and took great pride in his work. We are thrilled with the end result! ”

“James replaced an external wall on our period terrace house in Kew. This was a tricky job with limited access but he approached it with dedication, professionalism and skill and completed the work within his time frame. I asked for a gate to be installed under the verandah and he built and installed this easily and we now have functional access underneath our house. He returned 2 years later to replace a corridor inside our house. This was a difficult job that other builders had refused to touch. James and his team removed the tiles and replaced them with a beautiful timber floor that looks like we have a whole new room in our house. We are very happy with the result and hope to use James for a future extension. Thank you.”

“I engaged James for the construction of a deck, raised seating area and feature fence in a tight and dated yard. James ensured the design process, timber selection and execution was of the highest quality and has transformed the usability of my home. James was punctual, generous with his time and advice, and exceeded my expectations with what could be achieved on site.”

Their expertise and dedication to high-quality craftsmanship were apparent in every detail of our renovation, right from the start. James's commitment to integrity and trust set a solid foundation for the entire project. He was transparent and proactive in his communication, ensuring we were always informed and comfortable with the project's progress. His responsiveness to our inquiries and concerns made a typically stressful process feel well-managed. A standout aspect of James's work was his collaboration with our architect.

This collaborative effort was crucial in navigating challenges and ultimately contributed significantly to the success of our project. Beyond his professional skills, James's friendly and approachable demeanor made him a joy to work with.

Michelle and I presented James and his team a challenge .. to build an open plan Studio on top of our existing garage to maximise the available space. We encountered structural challenges along the way as you would expect. James presented practical solutions to the design changes we encountered. Such as steel beams and columns needing to be modified. Good communication was maintained along the construction path. All the workers were courteous and respected our close neighbours as we had a common Laneway to keep open. We had a target end date, which was achieved. We highly recommend you talk to James about your next Project.

What can we say about James and the Forged Constructions team other than they were perfect. Their attention to detail, solution oriented nature and incredible finish, ensured our first ever renovation was smooth sailing. Our home is our favourite place and has been the best place to raise our young family, which is all testament to the craftsmanship of Forged. We haven't had one issue since moving in and are constantly being complimented on the design, finish and quality of the renovation by family & friends. We absolutely loved working with James and the team and look forward to working with them in the future.
