Simon and Joanna of Add Value Renovations planned and completed our en-suite upgrade. We are entirely happy with the finished product and the service and care they provided. We especially appreciated the direct communication with Simon. He is a good man — honest, reliable, and easy to work with. The attention to detail and quality of the finish was outstanding.

We loved working with Simon and the team at Add Value Renovations. Add Value's project manager Tim, and interior designer Joanna, had excellent communication throughout the entire process. The quality of the workmanship was top-notch and they completed our bungalow renovation on time and on budget.

Simon working with you and your team was a truly positive experience. Your expertise, combined with your genuine care for our project, made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We're thrilled with the results and couldn't have asked for a better team to bring our vision to life.

Leah song

Just wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for the outstanding work you've done! A ext. renovation done by Add Value was truly a remarkable transformation. The kitchen and bathroom designs are not only aesthetically stunning but also highly functional. It's evident that a lot of thought and care went into every detail.

Simon and his team recently took care of renovating the bedrooms of our house. We are very happy with the quality of work and the professionalism shown throughout the project. The team was punctual, tidy and communicated well at every stage.

Colin McLennan

Had the pleasure of using Simon and his team on a garage conversion project. Simon made the planning and building process easy and his team were professional in their approach. It was a project that was on time and budget. Have no problem recommending Add Value Renovations for your next project.

Jo Nicoud-Garden

I worked with Simon at Add Value Renovations on a full home renovation and the experience was fantastic from start to finish. The communication was clear, the timeline was realistic, and the quality of the work speaks for itself. Highly recommended.

K Noronha

We have used the services of Add Value Renovations twice over three years, once for bathroom renovations and more recently for our kitchen and deck. The quality of work has always been excellent and any issues that arose were dealt with promptly and professionally.
