Report
Craig & the team at Risen converted our small cottage into the home of our dreams. 10 years on I still love the work they did & I still contact Craig when I need advice even though he has relocated to the Gold Coast. He was very flexible, allowing us to exclude items that we wanted to do ourselves to keep within our tight budget. Its a steep block & the build included preserving much of the old cottage but Craig provided really clear information about what was included & excluded (so there were no surprises). Highly recommend this hardworking bloke & his team! Kath & Paul at Sandy Point
